Being a lesbian and all its troubles

4 Comments

So basically, I had a very strong bond/friendship with this woman. She absolutely thought the world of me and I cared so passionately for her. She was 33, I'm 18. Our connection was so special, we were very emotionally close. I fell in love with her, but she's straight, so couldn't love me in that way. I've only been in love twice and they've both gone unrequited as they were older, straight women. I always get feelings for straight girls and my friends keep telling me to not take it as a personal rejection against who I am or how I look. I can't help but be hard on myself and I know it's illogical. Do you hold the same perspective on the situation as my friends? I can't help but feel stupid allowing myself to feel ugly and undesirable over women that like men.

I agree with your friends 34
I don't agree with them. (please explain in comment) 4

    You can't change someone's sexuality by being beautiful. It has absolutely nothing to do with you or how you look. Your friends are right, in my opinion. Surely it's the same for you. As in, you aren't attracted to men, but you can appreciate that there are some very attractive men out there. Just because you don't like them it doesn't mean they're ugly.

    The majority of women are straight. This world has more straight women next to gay women. So the fact you happen to fall in love with straight women is normal. It is nothing against you but you are not their type. Since their type is men.
