I'm a lesbian from Canada who thinks her gaydar is the shit, or maybe it's just wishful thinking that every girl I meet is gay/bi, 'cause who doesn't want that? I love talking and making new friends, and giving advice makes me feel pretty good, which is why I made this account I guess. Anyways I'm 24 and have a gay brother who is a couple years older than me, so it was pretty easy to come out of the closet, although I was more so pulled out and confronted about it rather then going to them. I live in a fairly small town, so I don't have many LGBT friends, and I would like a ton. I have this dream of having a group of lesbian friends, I basically wish my life was like the L word. Sadly it's not. I only came out a year maybe two ago, but now basically everyone knows, my immediate family, friends even some of my friend's parents know, never had a bad coming out experience thus far, except for one girl who overheard me and my friends conversation about me and called me disgusting. I personally think I'm lucky that, that was all, so I don't complain. My mom is still a little ignorant but not nearly as much as she was in my head when I thought about how it would go. She's even introduced me to a girl she works with who's a lesbian, she called her cute and told me to add her on FB. Haha, she also bought broke back mountain and we all sat down to watch it. Doubt she knew what it was about at the time though. She has talked to me about wanting grandchildren when I came out though, she thought I couldn't have children but that's just her ignorance speaking and with how it is today, we can really do anything a straight person can do. Also my name is Ashley
Aw thanks guys! Indeed another Canadian, are there many on here? Oh awesome another Ashley, I like the name but it is pretty common
I see a couple of you are from Halifax, I'm in Ontario. But yeah it is nice to talk to fellow Canadians ;D haven't seen many Canadians on other sites and forums actually
