Lesbians

so, we are holding hands but she doesn’t wanna kiss or anything because she wants to wait a while so we take it slow because i started dating her a week ago. however, i am very attached and expressive with my love and she is… less?? how can we make things work and how do i make it so i change and take things slower??

Right now, i’m too bummed out and depressed to want to be romantic or attached, so that’s “good” i guess

im a little sad i couldn’t kiss her, but i’ll be ok!!

i'm so excited!!

we went bowling, we cheered very loud for each other <3 she won the second game, my sister won the first! yayyyy!

I would absolutely love this if so

YEAH!!!!

my fictional girlfriend luna and i are BAAAAACK!!!!!

i'm going to ask this community for obvious reasons.

now i'd consider myself to be ftm but i'm genderfluid too and i like yuri, so i would like to maybe find some (preferably tsundere) anime characters for profile picture selections.

thank you :)

Ellie: What are you listening to?

Abigail: Oh, just some pop music…

Ellie: I don’t really like pop music, it’s vapid and soulless… I prefer Metallica.

(they look at each other and kiss)

[kind of a not well written shitpost]

this community has been practically dead for months it seems, and suddenly in the past few hours a bunch of new posts are being made?

I'm so sleepy fellow lesbians

She is a monster slayer, loyal to a fault, and will do ANYTHING for her girlfriend Madison. She would probably kill for Madison and is not quite mentally well, sadly.

dunno if any of y'all remember me, but i'm drbollocks. you may call me charlotte. i was struggling with my mental health but i eventually got better and wanted to come back to lemmy, which i kinda forgot about, to share the news :)

So, I'll just get straight to the point. I found the idea of being in a relationship with a man/doing stuff with him possibly exciting if I met the right one, but I could never see myself in a long-term relationship with him. I do not feel very much attraction to men either, though some made my heart flutter if I'm close with them.

Now, I have a girlfriend, so I speak in the past tense and only she makes my heart flutter, but would I be bi?? A lot of people seem to be questioning, so I thought "Why not I post about this, too?" Or am I a lesbian? I am certainly not straight.

First off, I'm going to say some. Not all men in the world are bad and not all men have traumatized me, just some. Next, I don't know if I qualify, but I would consider myself "gay" as an umbrella term as I'm bi and genderfluid (though usually more fem and lean towards girls).

3 months ago, I was dating a guy. I won't say who, some people may know but anyway, he was lowkey just kinda rude. He thought embarrassing me, putting me down, and trying to make me cry were "funny" and that's how he showed his "love", even though he would call me all sorts of names and tell me I sucked at everything all the time. NOT in a joking way. I've communicated with him about this several times, so we just broke up because I wasn't having it.

There was one time where he called me a bad catcher and a "useless idiot" because he threw a ball at my stomach and I couldn't catch it. He got really scary and screamed in my ear as well.

He has called me the B-word in front of my girlfriend as well, and we were polyamorous, so she was his ex-girlfriend. We all dated each other.

Relationship after relationship with boys or men since I was 13, it has always resulted in us breaking up because they turn out to not be who they say they are (online, especially). As I got older, I stopped online dating much and turned to mutual friends and such. But still, every guy I dated turned out to be the exact same, like my type is "toxic" men or something.

I am happily in a WLW relationship with my girlfriend, though, and I couldn't be better! We've been together for 2 years now.

How are you? I'm fine :)

A few months prior, I had broken up with David. My relationship with him prompted me to later realize I was going through comphet, and was actually into women, not straight like I once thought.

I was looking for a girlfriend after a few months of healing and being single, and my acquaintance/friend Michael, who is a few years older than me, introduced me to Kay/K.

"I think you'll like her," he said.

Keep in mind that Kay was not yet out to Michael as nonbinary with they/them pronouns, but I indeed asked them for their pronouns so I didn't misgender anyway. That's why Michael used she/her and thought Kay was a girl.

Kay wanted to be in a sort of "talking stage" after a while, where we weren't quite friends but we certainly weren't dating.

Here's where I wonder: Kay could imagine romantic stuff with me, such as holding hands and kissing, and going on dates and all that stuff, yet they didn't want me to do that with them nor did they want to initiate that with me. They said they had a crush on me, too, as did I for them.

We did things they were okay with, such as saying "I love you" and flirting, but that was it.

They said we were just hanging out and asked me could we not make it a date for now. They also got annoyed at me for asking if we could hold hands one day and said not now but maybe in the future.

They eventually told me they were traumatized by dating, which I respect, and weren't ready for a girlfriend nor were they ready for commitment.

So, this makes me wonder, did Kay like me romantically or did they just see me as sort of a friend? They were traumatized either way, which definitely could influence it, but yeah. I do wonder, from your guys' perspective as an outsider.

It's so good I had to stop watching it so I watch it for the first time together with my partner 😊

My online friend liked me and I have had multiple crushes at once so I liked her back. We're dating now, yayyy!!!
