| I empathise a good deal with what you wrote, and I also want to say that your ahead of me, I only recently realised that how I felt could be along the lines of LGBT thing, since I always thought it was an others thing. In my case, I thought hard about trans, since creating a female version of mysel... |

| Do you want to go the "full nine yards?" Do you want to become a woman? I don't mean that in a bad way. I mean... my post was to say I don't know what I want and am still making sense of my mind. Do I wish I were going through all the expensive and gruelling transition procedures? Probabl... |

| This is an issue I wanted to get off my mind and perhaps find some solidarity in. I was born male and never gave it a second thought for most of my life. Recently, though, I realised at least a small level of discomfort in it when considering the growing trend of putting one's pronouns in social med... |

| For a couple of years I thought I was strictly lesbian, but after a while I started to realize I was actually bisexual. It caused some confusion with my family, and I don't think my mom and stepdad completely get it yet, but most people were accepting of this new realization as well. It's nice to h... |

| I've had an odd series of developments in my sexuality as of late and I felt I just needed to put it out there. For years I never really thought about it, believing it to be something "for other people", but last September, just before I started at university, I admitted to myself that I t... |

| I haven't used this website in over two years now, but I've gotten to the point where I feel it is the only outlet I have remaining. The ones I formerly had I no longer feel comfortable expressing myself in. I hope the same can never be said for this one. Not to beat about the bush, I feel almost no... |

| I suppose, yeah. At the minute it's very hard to believe though. I certainly don't feel as though I could love someone in quite the same way. and you probably won't. but that's not a bad thing. like others have said, what you're feeling is real and it means something, it's not just random emotions.... |

| don't forget you're 18. even if you're the world's hugest nerd, even if your life is completely dreadful right now, there's no way to know what you'll be like and what your life will be like in 5 or 10 years, and you'll still be young. and it sounds like you've been sincerely loved by someone, even... |

| I first fell in love aged 18, while I was in Canada for 4 months. We tried to keep it alive when I returned to Scotland, but we couldn't. It's still got a little pain to it even after all these years and other , much longer relationships. You will love again, and you will be dumped too, or you may ... |

I don't rule it out. All depends on what happens at the appointment, whenever it arrives. |

| It is something I've considered, yeah. Worst I've done yet is symbolically run a bread knife across my wrist though, just to relieve the tension. My parents have both recommended the medication, so it all depends on what the doctors tell me. Sorry to hear that, Btw I wouldn't go on drugs if I were y... |

| A couple of things. Breakups are common, and if you are the person that didn't want to breakup, they simply suck. No getting around the hurt. Continued contact with the person generally only lengthens the hurt. The hurt lessons and usually goes away in time. Anything you do to distract yourself fro... |

| Yeah, there's no real denying I'm quite unhappy besides it. I'm supposed to be getting a letter from my doctor for an appointment with the mental health department (my mum made me go to the doctors because of my anger towards myself), but it still hasn't come through after three or four weeks now. I... |

| I'm trying my best to. I do still see her around is the thing, thanks to a shared online community we both use. I've even a video project I have to go through with that she made a part for, and I can't remove her section from it; it's not fair to the other entrants to cancel it for personal reasons.... |

| I hope so. Honestly one of the things I'm missing most is having someone to make feel special. Atm I can't imagine meeting anyone I understand as deeply or can trust as much as I did her. You can get through this. It hurts right now, but the pain will dissipate over time. Even the bad experiences ca... |
