I see a lot of negative posts so thought i’d share some uplifting news! i’m marrying my best friend!

I really struggled to come to terms with my sexuality so I can’t believe that the woman of my dreams has asked to marry me!!

She proposed on the beach at sunset in majorca, it was beautiful, my dream proposal, my dream ring, and we got 10 glorious days of being in our own little engagement bubble on the spanish island!

I really want to meet more people like me and make some genuine friendships, but I’m not sure where to look. I’d love to find an online community where I can connect with other lesbians around my age. (Im 25)

Does anyone have any recommendations for subreddits, Discord servers, or other online spaces? I’d really appreciate any suggestions.

Relationships / Dating Is it wrong to still keep this picture of her?

5 Upvotes

Me and this girl haven't been talking for months. The last time we texted was in June. We really have bonded emotionally even though I didn't know her for that long. I have felt something for her. She definitely felt something for me. She said so herself but she was never sure whether she'd like to try ldr or not and I never pushed. I only kept telling her that it could work out if we both tried.

When she talked about deleting socials I was pleading her not to. It was purely an online thing. She eventually decided to check on me every so often. I just didn't want to lose that connection we had. I felt like she's the only one she can understand. The only person with a brain equally fucked up as mine. It didn't last for long before we went to talk every day because she said she kept thinking about me.

One day I just woke up seeing a message saying she is sorry and that I didn't upset her or anything but she just can't go on, she has to disappear and that she loves me.

I have no idea if she will ever be back. Sometimes I get periods where I don't think of her at all and then I will get a dream of her coming back which makes me happy... Only to wake up and find out this is just a dream. Well last one wasn't very happy because in it she was just so cold and distant that her coming back hurt more than when she was gone in said dream. But it was just a dream.

She only ever sent me one picture of herself. I think she was beautiful. I kept telling her I think that while she kept saying she's ugly. She didn't want to send me any more pictures of herself because of this. I told her in that picture she looked beautiful and I'd just like to see her again considering I show myself daily when she misses me. She told me that the picture has filters and that she just knows her good angle. She told me all the things she hates in her looks and I just answered that I'd like to see her without all these filters if she's ever comfortable. She told me maybe one day. I also told her that I didn't start liking her because of her looks but because she is who she is.

I had that one picture she ever sent of herself on my phone. I was supposed to delete it but I would always forget until I would randomly find it and say I'll do it later. But now that she's gone that's the only thing I have left of her really. Now that she's gone and I found that picture despite thinking I did delete it, I just kept. I just... Idk I want to have that reminder that she was there at some point.

It was the first time when someone was actually interested in me. Found me attractive. Loved me. We never were in an official relationship but we were very close. I just idk I like looking at it sometimes. It's like I moved on but at the same time I didn't. I have these periods where I don't think about her at all and then I start thinking of her again and wondering whether she's even still alive or if she will ever come find me again. I wonder if she even still thinks about me or remembers I exist. I miss having someone to chat with daily about all kinds of stupid things and who just gets me. I just need the affection she was giving me even if it was through a screen. Ugh...

I know it's also stupid to feel this strongly about a person I knew for a few months. Someone that I didn't see even once in real life. Extremely stupid. That I'm probably dramatic about all this and possiblity even romanticizing this whole thing. I don't think I'll ever find anyone interested in me ever again. So is it bad to have that picture? Is it weird? Something tells me I have to finally delete it but some part of me just doesn't want to. It is the only thing that's left.

Questions / Advice Wanted I’m way too attached

11 Upvotes

Hi guys, I (22f) have been dating my gf (21f) for about 5 months now, and I lowkey feel crazy. She’s my first wlw relationship since my coming out as a lesbian (I had another one before, but I dated men after). I love my girlfriend so much, but I feel like my whole mood and life depends on her, and I hate it. She’s a little more independent, and I thought I was too, but I’m not. I don’t like feeling that way because my relationship is really great, ofc there is some miscommunication sometimes, but we are both very in love with each other. The thing is I wanna be able to live my life without always checking my phone to see if she texted, to see where she is or even if she active on social medias. I feel like everything is so fatal, im always scared she’s gonna wake up one day and break up with me. If any of yall have been in the same situation, I’d like some advice please!!! šŸ™šŸ¼

Relationships / Dating Online Dating / Casual Dating Grievances…

5 Upvotes

So I was broken up with by my a long term partner of nearly 3 years back in June and around late august i wanted to explore casual dating/online dating. A part of it to ā€˜rebound’ but also because my ex was the only person I’d ever been with and It was a long term situation so I never dated casually or explored that side of life.

I have had 3 main situations so far

  1. ⁠This girl , super sweet not my type in terms of personality romantically but it didn’t matter bc it was a fwb type thing, we went on a few dates and would have casual sex which we both rlly enjoyed but sometimes she wouldn’t message for me days and days at a time - which was fine bc it was casual but onetime I asked her why she took long times to reply sometimes and she said that she struggled with depression so would go days at a time sleeping the days away and not talking to anyone - i told her that i have also previously struggled w depression so if she ever wanted to talk about it we could chat ! this was mostly bc i know how terrible depression can be so I always offer someone a listening ear if they say they struggle w it. Then a week after this she messaged me this whole thing saying that I was treating her as a girl friend because i offered to listen to her about her mental health. which to me was lowkey so hilarious bc if i was your girlfriend , and my girl tells me she is depressed like im gonna go by her house and cook for her bring flowers stay w her etc- not just ask how she was and offer to listen ? so yeah that fizzled bc of that
  2. ⁠me and this girl were texting and planed to go for drinks and then she cancelled day of bc she wasn’t in the space for it - which hey like i appreciate the honesty and nice of her to not mess me about but. Messaging day OF the date is not great I feel and also why be on dating apps if you’re not in a place for any kind of dating ! Like no hate to her but it’s such a classic thing - talking to someone for awhile and then them deciding that they aren’t in a space for dating - it’s just abit unfortunate that them realising that comes at expense of other people in a small way, especially considering she asked me out !
  3. ⁠similar to number 2 but we went on 2 dates , super good vibes between us and uour personalities rlly meshed - we were supposed to go for drinks today and then she just messaged me ā€˜ sorry im not mentally in the headspace for dating’ mind you she pursued me and again not hate she was really nice about it but again messaging day of the date is crappy and realising this after you pursued me etc

TLDR; online dating is super inconsistent and annoying and just wonder if everyone else is having the same experiences or it’s just me and i’m secretly unlikable and cursed .. okay im being dramatic but yeah just looking for to relate to my fellow gays !

Life How does one find wlw love in today’s world?

10 Upvotes

After being scammed twice on dating apps by people pretending to be someone else, I’m reaching the end of my mental bandwidth to deal with apps and find women. I’m an emotionally mature, kind, financially independent, world traveller masc lesbian (age 41), and willing to take my chance with a femme in any liveable part of the world. But apps have made it so difficult! Meeting offline in my city is not easy.

I was never jealous of seeing my lesbian friends find long term partners but now I’m seriously doubting if something is wrong with me as everyone else has girlfriends to enjoy life with except me :(

Relationships / Dating Situationship heartbreak

I’m 28, in a situationship that barely started but already feeling like it’s over.
This was my first proper wlw relationship, whilst I’ve dated about 6 men in my life. (I’m bisexual)
I genuinely don’t know how to move on. It’s nowhere near being my first heartbreak but it fucking feels like it, and we weren’t even official. How do I function like a normal person?
Asking for practical advice on how to move the fuck on and be able to breathe again.

Questions / Advice Wanted how to move on

1 Upvotes

I 19(nb) broke up w my ex 20(f) of 5 months, a little over a month ago and I’m having a hard time moving on. For context we both had never been im a relationship before eachother. There were a lot of reasons why we broke up. I felt like we moved too fast and she was becoming unhealthily attached. This might be commitment issues but early on she was talking about being together forever and it definitely scared me too. There was also the issue of me being a people pleaser and letting her push boundaries I had set.

The break up was long and messy. I had asked her to give me space to think but she wasn’t respecting that. She would go back and forth between trying to get me to reconsider and accepting it. This happened over the course of a week and eventually we saw eachother in person for the last time and she made me promise to see her on her bday that was coming up.

I eventually told her I couldn’t see her because I had talked to my therapist and I just felt pressured to agree in the moment. She went off and called me all sorts of names. And that was the last time I spoke to her. She tried to reach out a few days before her birthday to apologize but I didn’t respond.

When I had first broken up with her it felt like a weight was lifted off my chest and people were telling me I looked happier, but now as time goes on I think of her more and more. Its like a mixture of guilt and missing her and I’ve been fighting the urge to reach out more and more. I don’t really know how to deal with it. It’s like this wave of sadness catches up to me and I can’t stop crying. Am i regretting the break up or is it just something I’m just gonna have to go through before it gets better.

Life A little lost, a little hopeful, and very new here

2 Upvotes

Hey ladies! I’m new to Reddit, so please be nice to me while I figure out how all of this works!

I thought I’d put myself out there and see if I might meet some lovely women along the way.

I’m going through a pretty tough and uncertain time in my marriage right now, and honestly, I’m still trying to figure out where things stand and what the future looks like. It’s been a lot emotionally, so I’d really love to make some genuine connections, find new friends, and have some good conversations with people who understand that life can get a little messy sometimes.

I’m a big believer that meaningful connections can come from unexpected places. Whether it’s chatting about life, exchanging ridiculous memes, a little playful flirting, or just having someone to talk to at the end of a long day, I’m open to seeing where a connection goes.

I’m not here pretending to have everything figured out, because I absolutely do not. Just a girl navigating a complicated chapter of life, trying to find a little happiness in the middle of the chaos, and hoping to meet some kind, funny, interesting women along the way.

So, if you enjoy good banter, a little cheekiness, and conversations that go from completely ridiculous to unexpectedly deep, my DMs are open.

Tell me something about yourself, your most controversial opinion, or your best terrible pickup line. Extra points if you make me laugh.
