Monique Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 This post has been flagged with warnings, as follows: Sex Click this notice to reveal the content. I have always liked this one of my girl friend. At first I thought it was a normal I like her as a person then she started "play" flirting with me and I was gone like full on in love with her and started dreaming about her and thinking about her inappropriately. For the record I am a female, the first time I ever had sex with someone it was an older female, then with multiple males, then non-binaries then back to males. To me I don't think gender defines who I would date or sleep with. But the major problem is that I think a lot about what people might think when they find out I'm not straight, I'm currently in a closet made of glass and sometimes have to pretend to be homophobic to fit in with the people around me. No one knows that I've been carrying this secret for a long time. Now I'm currently going into university and I think this is the time to come out and experience more of my sexuality? Or is this a bad idea? What if everyone abandons me and all what do I do then? What if I get kicked out and harassed? I think it's better I stay in the closet right? Maybe one day someone will see through it and ask me out? I don't know what to do. I don't even remember what I was typing but this is just me spilling the heavy secret that has been at the bag of my mind for like 8 years before going to bed (•‿•) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Mentor Monsoon Posted June 21 Digital Mentor Share Posted June 21 Hey Monique, Welcome to the DTL community - I'm one of the digital mentors here and I give support to those who reach out to us :) How does it feel for you after sharing your secret? I think that in your kind of situation, it's completely normal to get caught up in wondering whether or not you'll be abandoned or harassed when you come out; revealing our identity makes us feel very vulnerable and we often fear the judgement of others which is totally understandable. I think that it's important to live authentically if you have the privilege of being able to come out, and by that, I mean living in a country where it's safe to do so and knowing that you won't be put in any danger, such as being kicked out or abused by your family; what do you think?
