Hi. I'm a new member. I really only just became sure that I am a lesbian, though I'd been questioning for a few months and before that I identified as asexual. I joined this community to be able to meet other people and to help me with the process of coming out, especially to my mom. I had dropped hints back when I identified as asexual, but she dismissed it with a disheartening comment. I'm still living at home and she tends to be an easygoing and loving parent, but I still am scared to tell her. I have dated boys in the past, but I really only felt true attraction to one of them, and that was a good long while ago. I know sexuality is fluid and can change, but I don't think my mom could understand that. Oh, I know I probably wrote too much for an introduction, but I hate the feeling of going and erasing all my typing, so there it is. I appreciate any and all advice and I hope to make good friends here.
