update

sorry i haven’t responded to any posts in a while, i haven’t been on here much lately. i just wanted to give another update on where i’m at with my whole sexuality crisis - i was almost sure i was lesbian but then i went to a party and drunk a bit (not a huge amount but enough to make me tipsy) and i randomly felt intensely attracted to some of the guys there (as in i would’ve happily made out with them if the opportunity had arisen). i haven’t felt like that about a guy in AGES (idk if i ever even have) so i can’t tell if that was just the alcohol in my brain talking or if it was genuine attraction (because it felt genuine at the time). there were other times at that party where i got like butterflies around one of the girls there but it was a different feeling to with the guy so idek. i’m kind of happy to just not label myself and see where things go (although i would like to be more open about my sexuality at some stage as most people think i’m straight still), but i was just wondering if anyone else had experienced anything like that?

Hey @Mango_Dove it's so lovely hearing from you! That's okay that you haven't responded to any posts in a while, we understand how busy things can get. We appreciate you sharing with us and keeping us updated with everything that has been going on for you though.

Understanding your sexuality can be such a hard and confusing time, especially if your finding yourself attracted to the sex that you had previously ruled out. Labels are a very personal thing and the truth is that you don't always need to have one. You are special and important exactly as you are and you can take as long as you need to find out who you are. Do you mind me asking if there is anyone you feel comfortable talking to about this? If you feel talking to someone, there are a number of great supports and helplines out there too. 

I also just want to remind you that you're not alone and we're all here for you 💜

Welcome back!
