So my friends and a few colleagues know I am a lesbian. Those who don’t know probably still have an idea. But my family has no idea about my sexuality. I will only come out to my family when I have a serious girlfriend, and I hope she will be okay with this.
Just sharing where I am in my journey. curious if others are in a similar place.
I lost my dad when I was around 3 years old. I’ve always heard from family that he loved me a lot, but I never got to experience that relationship myself.
Even though my family loves me, I sometimes feel like there’s a kind of emotional gap, like I’m still searching for that deep, safe kind of love.
I’m a lesbian, and sometimes I imagine that kind of emotional closeness with my future girlfriend. Not in a replacement way, but more like wanting a deep, secure bond.
Is that normal? Has anyone else felt something similar?
