Big step in flirting.

Story TimeBig step in flirting.

Posted July 27, 2022 by hiddenGO in Lesbians

Hi! I wanted to share with you my last big step in flirting because I feel like a new person and I know from experience that a lot of introverted lesbians struggle with flirting or simply speaking normally with women they like.

I've met a woman in a festival and really liked her. I was fascinated since the first time I saw her and got really nervous. We spent several days together with other friends and I couldn't keep a normal conversation with her. Before going to see her I planned what I was going to say in my head but always resulted in a brief and awkward conversation at best. She is also introverted and acted just like me but I'm not sure if she was mirroring my own strange behaviour or really nervous. Long story short, we spent a lot of time together and were kind with each other in subtle ways (If one of us asked for something, the other one was the quickest in the room, that kind of thing) but never talked for more than 5-10 seconds.

When I got back home I added her in social media, which I usually do, but this time I decided to send her a message. Last time I did this I was almost a pre-teen, more than 10 years ago. I felt so nervous after I sent the message that I hid my phone for like an hour. Then I started to feel calm and kind of proud. We talked a bit for a couple days and she was kind, warm and gentle as I expected. I still don't know if she's interested but I'm just really happy that I was able to speak with her. Next time I see her I plan to have at least a normal conversation with her.

I know being an introverted lesbian is difficult but taking steps towards being more extroverted is very rewarding.

The Twitter comments section any time Mumsnet or Rosie Duffield are mentioned.

Just full on hate from wokebros and TW. The misogyny is quite something to behold. Mumsnet was trending today and the view from bots is that it’s a ‘radicalised group of extreme fascists’. I’m surprised they don’t suffocate under the weight of their own hyperbole.

o/Lesbians is a space for lesbians to connect, thrive, and build a genuine lesbian community. We define lesbianism as homosexuality; a woman’s exclusive same-sex attraction to other women. Participation by non-lesbians in this circle is not allowed.

Along with our rules, we enforce the sitewide rules and guidelines.

No participation by people who are not both female and exclusively same sex attracted. Users in violation will be banned. This includes posting, commenting, and voting.
Assume good faith. Please refrain from being preemptively belligerent or defensive.
No attacks, insults, or reciprocation. If you are attacked by another user, use the report button instead of reciprocating. If you reciprocate, you will also be in violation of this rule.
No slurs or pejoratives. The words 'cis' or 'cisgender' used to refer to other women are considered slurs. Name calling, ad hominem attacks, and other language used specifically to target another user will also not be tolerated.
No bullying/ganging up on people. If the content is rule-breaking, report it instead of piling on.
Refrain from overgeneralizing your own experience onto others, or implying that what was true for you is necessarily true for all lesbians.
No criticism of sexual boundaries or relationship boundaries.
No content questioning one's lesbian orientation. Posts like 'When did you know?' are okay, but posts like 'What am I?' are not. We cannot tell you what you are. Similarly, refrain from unfounded speculation regarding the sex lives and sexuality of other women.
Gender-critical or trans-critical content lacking a lesbian focus will be removed.
No derailing or hijacking. This refers to posting a comment that is unrelated to the topic of the post, which often kills the original discussion.
No pornography. NSFW posts must be marked as such.
No selfies or other sharing of personal identifying information; no spam; and no self-promotion.
No using the exclusivity of the circle in bad faith towards/about the rest of the site, its content, or other users, who cannot respond if they've been misunderstood or misrepresented.
