Okay, I have something to admit.


I'm a fallen lesbian.

How have I fallen? In love with a man.


Sincerely yours,

a.d.

1. Fallen
is such a harsh word. Are you upset about it or something?

2. this is just my opinion........
But to me, you couldn't find a finer woman than one that is also interested in women. Just a thought........and my biggest fantasy.

Peace,

4. I think
Some people have enough love within their hearts to see a person's soul more than anything else. You seem to be that kind of person. If you are happy, embrace it for what it is even if you question it at the same time.

Love is a gift. :)

9. Sometimes we fall in love with people.
I'm a hetero, but have had crushes on women (not exactly 'fallen in love', though). Who's to say why we are attracted to who we are?

10. That's it? No details for us nosy strangers??
Edited on Sat Nov-20-04 11:51 AM by tjdee
Are you physically attracted to him too?
Have you known him for a long time?
Does he know?
Are you thinking you're bisexual now, or is it just this guy?
(If I fell in love with a woman, that's what I'd be wondering.)
How do you know it's love? Or is it just like?

Let me stop, LOL. SO nosy. :)

12. Well, I believe, since I'm in love, *and* attracted to him

I am now officially "bisexual..."

Thanks for your interest, tjdee... that's sweet.

We've known each other almost three months. The first month was a deep and exciting platonic friendship, though playful and affectionate. I remained convinced I was a lesbian, though I knew I cared for him a great deal. On the full moon of the first month (September) of our friendship, our romance was officially sparked, by a deep and exciting non platonic kiss, and more.

Since then, it's been an extremely lovely, romantic courtship, and I think I could even marry this person. I have more in common with him than anyone else I've ever known. He lets me see him cry. I have let him see me cry. Sex is more than awesome. What more could I want?

:loveya:

15. That sounds wonderful.
That is so romantic.
I think that's great that you allowed yourself to be open to something you wouldn't have expected, and it sounds like you're on cloud nine. Wish you two all the best.

Oh, and SO jealous, LOL.

16. Awww...

You're sweet, and yes, I am on Cloud Nine, like the motown song goes... I hope it lasts, I think this is the real thing, really real...

He is funny, sensitive, kind, gentle, shy - a (younger) cross between John Cusack and Gene Wilder, with some Japanese lineage thrown in for almond eyes, tan skin, and crazy, thick, curly black hair...

I cross my fingers every day...

14. A very gay friend of mine...
Once fell head-over-heels for a remarkable young woman. He agonized, because he was invested so in his gay identity. We got to talking deeply about this. He had a revelation:

"What the hell! It's all flesh!"

Well, it didn't last, but he was, for a while, happy. He is now in a committed relationship with a good man, but what the hell. She was well worth the threat of being called a pervert. ;-)
