I'm a lesbian, although in the past I have been attracted to guys, but not in the way I feel about women. I have a girlfriend (beautiful inside and out) I love you Sash  . We are so happy together although we do have our ocasional fights. At first it was really hard for me to accept the fact that I was a lesbian. I went through some very hard transitions in my teenage years, struggling with acceptence and "being normal" but now I realize that there is no "normal" and the people who really love you will accept you no matter what. I'm proud and secure with my sexuality and with the true person inside me that I'm finally able to embrace : )

I am bi. I was not really aware of it until I had an affair with a girl at about 15. Even then, I was in some sort of denial for a while. Since I was sort of 'passive' I 'thought' it was just some sort of play initiated by others & which I learned to enjoy.
Kept being attracted to boys, and later on, for a number of years I dated boys and had 'more or less secret' affairs with girls.
When I started to mature emotionally (late teens, early twenties) I had to accept that I was bi. Never came out in the open though. Hard to do, especially in my many college years. I managed to have affairs or relationships with both boys and girls. Dating the boys was for real, but it also helped in my quasi-secret affairs with girls, since most people could never quite label me as being 'lesbian'. I know I didn't fool everyone though... There were always rumours... ha ha. But they would make some boys want to be with me. So, it was like a lure of sorts...
Since then, I go thru periods of being attracted only (or mostly) to boys, or only (or mostly) to girls. And definitely dating and falling in love with one or the other, not mixing them.
As a lesbian, I am a femme. I am attracted to other femmes. Currently, my SO is another femme. I like long term relationships now. No more quick & easy affairs for me...

ps: I may still go back again to liking boys. It has happened b4, that --for reasons not completely clear to me-- I go the other way. Que sera, sera ?

Don't mean to make light of your words Tanya; just trying to point out that my mother would have literally spun my head around ten times with a blow, before falling, fatally stricken by her own anger....

Oh i didn't say she was happy about it! She nearly fell off her chair before smacking me! I learned never to open my mouth about that kind of thing again.
