Hello everyone!
Many of you might know me and may have realised I've been asking quite a few questions lately, also because I want to work on myself mentally.
I've realised that I, even after 10 years after coming out, apparently still haven't fully accepted my homosexuality based on reflecting on my recent feelings.
Right now, I feel like I do accept my same sex attraction and feel no "bad" feelings about it. For example, I don't think I'm "abnormal" or digusting like I used to feel when I was young or very ashamed. I don't think there's nothing wrong with me for liking women and I feel like it's ok!
However, the thing I apparently clearly haven't accepted yet is the lack of attraction to men. I absolutely hate being different from other women. Every time I'm with a group of women, I'm wishing they don't speak about guys and when they do, I get this instant depressive feeling, this is the word I could find that most accurately describes how I feel.
Some context:
- I hated my teen years and used to hate being homosexual. However, I ended up meeting my (male) best friend who helped A LOT to accept my feelings towards women. He was the one who helped not to feel ashamed anymore.
I don't know if it's because I've never had any girl friend who helped me the same way realise it's ok not to like men that I still feel like this. I honestly don't really know how to handle this feeling and was wondering if anyone has felt this way before and if you could overcome it and how.
Thanks for reading! <3
