    Hello all, I don't really know where to start.. I'm 20 and I'm a lesbian.

    I came out when I was 13 but didn't really understand it. It just sort of fizzled away because I thought people thought I was going through a phase which in turn made me think it was a phase.

    Since September it has become apparent to me that it was not a phase. I've fallen hard for a girl in my college (I was a bit behind with my education so went back to do my A Levels).. But anyway, I was still unsure about my sexuality until a few months ago, I knew I was definitely into women but I wasn't sure if I liked men, but like I say it has become apparent that it is just women that I like. Men just make me cringe (no offence intended, I mean sexually)

    So I eventually told my 3 close friends last week that I am a lesbian and then they encouraged me to tell my mother and sister. I told my sister first and then my mother. All of them have been incredibly accepting.

    I'm still not ready for everyone at college to know yet, but I feel like a weights been taken off my shoulders.. but there is still a weight there because of the feelings I have for this girl.

    Don't really know what to say other than that. Going to try and find my way around the forum now lol. Hope you're all well :slight_smile:
