My initial reaction was shock. I grew up in a rather traditional family, and the idea of being attracted to a girl was so foreign to me. I tried to deny my feelings at first, thinking it was just a phase. But as time passed, I couldn't ignore it anymore. It was like there was this voice inside me that kept saying this was who I really was.
I was a bit confused at first. I knew it was going to happen someday but when it did, I was like 'oh, this is it'. And then I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness because it was a sign of growing up.
I was terrified. I thought something was seriously wrong with me. It was so unexpected that I froze for a while. Then I started panicking and trying to figure out what to do.
I was terrified at first. I thought I was seriously ill or something was really wrong with my body.
One challenge in my first lesbian relationship was dealing with family acceptance. My parents were quite traditional and when I told them about my relationship, they didn't take it well at first. It took a lot of time and communication to make them understand. Another challenge was facing judgment from some people in society. But over time, I learned to ignore the negative comments and focus on my relationship.
When I first realized I was a lesbian as a teen, I coped by writing in a journal. I poured out all my feelings, from confusion to fear. It really helped me sort out my emotions.
My first time spanking my dog for jumping on the guests, it barked in surprise. But then it seemed to understand that it had done something wrong. It slunk away with its tail between its legs for a little while, but later came back and was much more behaved around the guests. It was a sign that the spanking had an impact on its behavior.
When I first used Grindr, it was a bit overwhelming. There were so many profiles. I ended up connecting with a guy who lived nearby. We decided to meet at a local coffee shop. It was a little awkward at first, but as we started talking about our hobbies, like playing video games, the conversation flowed more easily and it turned into a great friendship.
The reaction to my first gay confession was positive. I told my college roommate. He just smiled and said he had suspected it and that it didn't change how he saw me at all. We actually became closer after that as I could be more myself around him.
In my first time in a new city, I felt a sense of adventure. I was eager to try out the local cuisine right away. I walked around the streets, just taking in the sights and sounds. There were so many different cultures coexisting in one place. I found myself constantly looking around in amazement, and I couldn't wait to discover all the hidden gems the city had to offer.
One of the main challenges was coming out to family. I was so worried about their reactions. They had certain expectations of me, and this was completely different. Also, in society, there were some stares and whispers when we were out together. But we learned to ignore them.
