I was always confused about my feelings, forcing myself to date boys or somewhat, 2 months ago i came out to my mum, and now i finally found a girlfriend and i love her so much, it’s the first time i feel a connection in a relationship. 💕 it’s such a relief!

How old were you when you first started and when it ended?

They are soft and warm inside

Title ^ 😭

Edit: yayyyy! Everyone is so nice :D

Hey everyone!

I'm Micah/Arike (either one is fine), a 17-year-old aromantic lesbian from Namibia looking to make some new queer friends! I'm hoping to connect with other young people who are also part of the LGBTQ+ community.

I'm interested in making friends with people who are around my age and who share my interests. I'm into listening to sad music, watching movies and series, scrolling through TikTok, reading, and overthinking.

I'm looking for friends who are open-minded, accepting, and supportive. I'm also looking for friends who are interested in having deep conversations and who are willing to be vulnerable.

If you're interested in being friends, please feel free to reach out to me on TikTok or Instagram. My handles for both platforms are @dmahoto.

I'm looking forward to meeting you all!

I(13F) like this girl from another class at my school, she doesn't know me, i don't know her, she's really well-dressed and doesn't talk to anybody, but every time i try to talk to her, i get scared, we've never talked before. any advice? i know FOR SURE that she's not italian (i live in italy) so, should i ask her about it? should i ask if she likes chappel roan or girl in red? should i ask where she buys her clothes? should i tell her i really like her hair? i need help!!!

So idk ive been talking to this girl she's super nice and everything but she's poly she's been telling me that she really likes me and everything and how she wants to date and such but idk how to feel about it cause yeah and I wanna respect the poly people but I just can't wrap my head around loving someone romantically but also loving someone else romantically oh also she just recently told me she has a boyfriend and that he's okay with her talking to me? So idk that kinda made me distant? But what do you guys think or so or what would you do in this situation?

I've been in a relationship for about 2 years now with the most beautiful and amazing girl on planet Earth. But I live in a very conservative religious environment, with my parents and my school being incredibly homophobic. Like, it's so bad that if my school ever found out I was dating a girl, it's likely they would suspend or expell me, and then tell my parents who would try and get me to "pray the gay away." (Which didn't work about 4 years ago so idk why they would think it would work now.)

So yeah, I have to hide my relationship a majority of the time and I'm hesitant to tell my friends, even the ones who are accepting. And even if I could be open about my relationship, my gf goes to another school and neither of us can drive as of yet so getting together can be difficult. Meanwhile, all my friends who are straight or are at least in straight relationships can very openly show affection for their partners without any worries or anxieties whatsoever.

And I hate to say it but... I end up getting very jealous of them. I don't want to be, it's not their fault that I can't be open about my own relationship and their just showing affection for their partner. They're doing absolutely nothing wrong. But still, every time my friends do anything loving with their partners, a small part of becomes very bitter and I can't help but think of my own gf who I only see about once a month and I cannot publicly show affection to. While my friends can kiss their partner, hold hands, say "I love you" without needing to whisper in fear of someone overhearing... it really just makes me hate the world that I have to live in.

Sorry about the vent, but I really just needed to let out some of my feelings

I'm so saddd. I know I can't do anything but still im sad. Like ughhhh I'm dying. And my crush isn't straight. I think shes bi or something

Ok so ever since i was like 8 i’ve know i liked girls and identified as a lesbian but i started identifying at bi last year and now idk. Like I’m physically attracted to both and i might even say I’m more physically attracted to guys but that could also be because i don’t let myself view women in that way cause i’d feel bad and like I’m sexualizing them lol. But like if i think about dating a guy I’m like meh… i could date one but i don’t feel like there would be any difference between being friends with a guy and dating one other than like kissing so does anyone know what i should do to figure out my sexuality?

If the world doesn't implode by then obviously lol

Most of the lesbian/bi girls I know don't want kids, which kinda sucks because I'd like at least 2. Preferably I'd give birth to one and my wife gives birth to the other (using the same sperm so they're related).

Do any other girls want kids!?

It’s so weirdly lonely, all of my friends who like guys are coming to me for advice and it’s so annoying, god why are these people so men oriented, ik they’re not but lord does it feel like it, it’s so tiring.

The fact that I’m 16 (genderfluid) and have never been in a relationship either is not helping. With people going on about their roster of guys and how I’m so lucky that I like girls. It genuinely just destroys my confidence in my sexuality and I don’t even know why.

Even my other lesbian friends have been in relationships and ugh I wish I could love and be loved as easily as everyone else in my life can.

If everyone else can, why can’t I? Why do I have to be the only one who struggles with it?

That woman are amazing 😭😭😭 like how can people not like us, girls are like so pretttttyyyyyy and cuttttteeee I've never once seen one that's unattractive

15 (F) Height: 5’4?? Likes: animals, baking, charity shopping and crime/drama shows

I live in the uk

The majority of my friends are queer but I don’t have any lesbian friends and I feel like because of that we don’t have the same experiences within the community

Ages: I don’t really mind but 13(ish) to 16

IM SO AWKWARD I DONT KNOW HOW TO BE A GOOD GF HELP

A girl approached me recently, but turns out she looks exactly like my ex. (I knew she wasn't because she's a few years older than my ex and I) I was so shocked when I looked at her eyes, they were identical to my ex gf's/and muse (whose eyes I was in love with and drew them). Not only that, she has freckles and almost the same exact hair color and haircut too and I just feel so conflicted but I don't want to be disrespectful to her thanks to my still unhealed wound made by someone completely unrelated. It's like the universe wants to test me again and i'm NOT passing it 💀

For the past few months now after years of not being attracted to anyone of any gender I found myself having quite an intense attraction towards women. When I say intense I mean it I am not going to get into all of the details but a big part of it is imaging what life with a girlfriend would be like and it's simple things like holding hands and spending afternoons together there are other parts to it too but I find myself thinking of the simple things like cuddles and stuff and then it makes me feel extremely alone.

Looking at the way things are I most likely am lesbian (a very lonely one 😭) and I am fine with that but it just all happened so fast one day and hasn't stopped and that's what made me so confused. It doesn't help that I do already look and act like a stereotypical lesbian (short dyed hair, wears mens clothes, I love coffee, etc.) and many people always ask me if I am lesbian I am just scared of people reacting badly too it as many people joke about lesbians were I live and many guys have said they love watching lesbians (gross ik)....

I am just really stuck atm with all these thoughts and feelings and I am craving a relationship so bad I feel so alone and I am so jealous of the lesbians I see happy together (WHY CANT THAT BE ME 😭💔💔). I want to live my life as the person I truly am (I try my best to in a range of different ways) and part of that is most likely that I am infact a lesbian. I thought for years that I was aro but turns out I might not be...

Sometimes I have homophobic thoughts towards myself which isn't very nice to deal with as they make me feel like my feels are wrong and incorrect and I should hide them from the world. I think that could be a result of growing up constantly being called "gay" as a "insult" and stuff like that.

If anyone here has any advice for me please I'd love to hear some. I am so stuck atm and I have no clue what to do.

just saw a tik tok saying this and it’s so real like i want a gf soooo bad but i’m going to uni in less than a year so there’s no point trying to get with anybody nearby, but what if every girl at uni finds it weird that i have no experience and what if the fact that i can’t find a gf in my home town means i won’t find one ever? and what if-

Hi I am a teen girl who has a pretty big crush on this girl. She is in my class, and I see and talk to her everyday. She is really nice and I (kinda) flirt with her a lot, but I can't tell if she likes me, or if I am just really full of my self.

I was really close to telling her once, when she asked if I still liked another girl, and I said said no. SHe asked if I liked anyone else and I said yes, but ended up never saying who it was.

Could anyone help me decide whether to ask her out?

so last post here was on my account that i lost when my phone broke.

anyway last post i made was about me leaving because i thought i was trans but i'm just genderfluid like i was before i left. i still go by Sage, i go by her/him/she/he pronouns

this is now turning into an updated info thing:

i am bi but still have a preference for girls

i have a girlfriend <3 i love her

anyway i hope you all are having a great day! haiii again if you knew me, hiii if i haven't met you on here yet

15, genderfluid mainly demigirl, softmasc ,

I'm 18 and will be going into college next year and if I have to go another year without a butch I'll shrivel up and die. I'm extremely feminine and am often approached by guys but never chicks. I guess I just don't look homo enough??? Idk what to do lol
