i really knew for sure, @ 8 years old, but kinda knew before that too.

Mental wounds not healing, driving me insane, i'm goin' off the rails on a crazy train- the ozzman

Actually, I was reading "ecchi" manga (manga with erotic pictures of females) soon after I hit puberty, and one of the girls in my sixth grade class went up to my teacher flailing "LOOK! LOOK! LESBIANS!!" I didn't even realize then. Sheesh.

It was the year after, though, that we had the unbelievably hot history teacher - sassy, with an attitude and the smarts to match, and a nice body to boot. I really, really enjoyed having her as a teacher. Then I realized why... and I promptly realized that I had huge flaming crushes on a lot of girls before that. And that I had only had a crush on one boy before that, and that was because I thought I needed to have a crush. All evidence points to queer, my friends.

Ha ha :) (in a nice way) Carmen143 and acethesuperhero and Bookworm3x4, I love all your stories. Yeah, I wanted a crush on a boy, so I kind of made myself feel that way. Not fun. And yeah, why the hell didn't I find out sooner?

I finally accepted it about the day I joined Oasis... I didn't want my mixed confusion muddling my thoughts and actions. I wanted a clear path. :D

hm. i had a whole crapload of hints. i remember in like fourth or fifth grade, there was this girl. and i always thought she was so pretty. i knew i liked her, i thought it was normal and everybody went through it.i just didnt have a clue what it was called until middle school, but during sixth grade (and some of seventh) i went through a period of self hatred. alot. so i hated on fellow gays, and i felt guilty about it (i still get angry at myself for doing that). i actually went through some crazy shit (i.e. hurting myself on purpose). but when i finally decided to accept it i felt much better. i found this site in i think febuary or march of last year. and it helped me so much. i didnt feel alone anymore.

thanks guys ^_^

I'm gonna have to say I new since the day I came outta my momma. hahaha. Although I didn't know I was different. I didn't think anything of it. I can think back to preschool, me chasing the girls around the playground. I had a crush on Marissa. She was cute. Got over that a long time ago.

I realized what a lesbian was in elementary school. I new what sex was in elementary school as well. And I guess that's when I figured out who I was. Of course, I was too shy or confused to really say anything so I just burried that inside me. In middle school, at the end of 7th grade I accepted myself and told some friends. So, that is my amazing story on how I became the lesbian I am today. haha.

“Love is what makes you smile when you're tired.”

well, I would say I started questioning in about 7th or 8th grade.. I knew I was physically attracted to girls at that time, but I didn't tell anyone about it. Then a couple of years later my best friend and I started having sex whenever we stayed over at each others houses.. and yeahh.. I guess after a year of that, I knew in the back of my mind. But when we ended the friendship, I didn't really think about it anymore until I started talking to a girl I knew from my Junior year.. then I got the biggest crush on her, and I knew for sure that I am bi, though I tend to crush on females more often haha.

I have never really had a "moment" but I don't remember liking guys as much as I liked girls and I didn't even think it was odd until I reached middle school and some of my friends started going boy crazy. I do remember having conversations about who each of my friends like and having to make up some guy in one of my classes just to get them to stop saying "ohhh i know u like someone" lol


Do you really think it is weakness that yields to temptation? I tell you that there are terrible temptations which it requires strength, strength and courage to yield to.

Oh and... I'm not quite sure. I think maybe... when I was 10? Maybe 12? Like I said, I'm not so sure anymore.

I always sort of knew, it really hit home when I met M, who became one of my best friends, and we would pretend to be married, hug each other, pretend to kiss etc just for the hell of it and to laugh at people being all "WTF!?" at school. And then I reallised I desperately wanted to kiss him for real, that I, at some point had fallen in love with him.

Of course at the time my brain vehemently wouldn't let me admit it to myself... but thats another story.
Also later, I did kiss him for real, heh. It never went anywhere firther though TT_TT

you're something to die for.

It was around December 2008, although I'm still doing some soul searching.

well i guess i should have known whe i was little ( playing house with my friends and i was the dad so i could hold my friend ashlees hand =])
and all the other adorable signs (such as undressing my barbies and lining them up xDDD)
but i fer sure knew when i was 10.
my best friend bryson and i would watch porn in his room that he had stollen from his mom and i sure as hell wasnt looking at the penis. xDDD

i admited it to myself at 11 when i met my bestfriend at the time
we flirted constently but were both too scared to say anything
saying things like what would you do if a girl asked you out or what if a girl kissed you and so on
untill i told her i liked girls and then she kissed me =]]
(a year passed before that happened though)

I was 15, in marching band. I fell hard for a drum majorette.

I didn't think of it as anything. Then I realized that most girls didn't feel that way about other girls. And then I realized that what I was willing to do with girls was what I was supposed to want to do with boys.

Well, I was never into boys, and then in 6th grade I had my first girlcrush, though I didn't register it as such at the time. In 7th grade I had a few crushes on girls that I firmly ignored, and sort of made up interested in guys (for my mom, my friends, and myself). I actually went to GSA for a little bit in 7th grade, then quit "so people wouldn't think I was gay." Unclear if I was starting to get an inkling by then, but I think I was. I started really realizing that I was crushing on girls, and that I might be gay. And I started coming out to people by the end of 8th grade. Funnily enough, in junior year I started realizing I might like boys too... but that's complicated and a whole other shebang.
