I live in Cambridge, UK…which is stupid for a few reasons – 1) because there are literally no gay-people, especially gay-women (well, that I know of) and 2) because there are a LOT of other places called Cambridge, so I get pretty excited when I see someone else from Cambridge on AS, but then they’re usually from Massachusetts and so I slip back…[Read more]

Does Pride season make you wanna throw rainbow bricks through the windows, too? They look like so much fun, and yet The annoying thing about living in Sunnydale (“halfway between L.A. and San Francisco”, somehow manages to be a small town with most of the basic requirements of a city, pretty damn white): the big Pride celebrations are all just…[Read more]

I’m openly/obviously gay and have been all of my life…so I should be comfortable around lesbians. But I’m not. I’m not shy around anyone else, strangers love me, I have a pretty strong social net of straight people, my family and I are very close. I just seem to repel other lesbians. What am I doing wrong?
-
The possibility of romantic or sexual interest makes you nervous?
-
Nope. I wish it was that simple. I’ve only really liked two lesbians, romantically/sexually. Both times I felt as comfortable with them as I do with all of my straight friends. It was easy, like we were already connected. We’re still friends, but we live in different cities.
Most of the time, when I meet other lesbians, I’m not even…[Read more]

Personally, the higher the stakes, the harder it is for me. The more I like someone and want to impress them, the less impressive I am because I clam up! It’s a curse. So whether it’s my boss, a beautiful girl or someone who I think is much cooler/smarter/more interesting than me, I struggle. When I don’t care about someone’s opinion, I am able to…[Read more]
-
I can see how that logic might come into play, but that’s not me. I’m pretty much the same person to everyone I meet. I’m weird in that I really like me, I’d totally hang out with me. I’m pretty sure other people will like me too, it’s just a matter of meeting them. Besides, at my age, I don’t place too much value on relationships that haven’t…[Read more]

I live in a town in Kansas that has a population under 5000 people. :(
I’m pretty sure I’m the only out lesbogay in the county. I’ll be moving to a more progressive area pretty soon when I’ll move onto the advice group because I have no idea how to meet anyone ever. Until then ugh!
-
I know how it is.
-
omg 700 people. You poor dear <3
My town has yours beat by about 700 people (population 1500) but we don't have much fly fishing! -
Sorry, a little late to the party, BUT… Fall River Mills! One of my really good friends is from there. She moved out pretty quickly though. Good luck!

-
:( How are you staying sane babe? Cuz seriously little teen me would be in jail if I had to deal with that kind of nonsense.
-
Lawrence? Good deal. I’m actually moving there next month probably. Well, to Overland Park which is close enough.
I don’t know how problem solvely college is but it will be a wonderful experience for you. I figure if the area has Junior Colleges with GSAs then the lib arts college will be way better off for it. You’ll be golden chee. :)

If there was ever a group for me to join! Lately, my anxiety has made work weird. (I’ve worked here about 2 months. New city, new state… moved here for job.) I know these (straight) girls at work think I hate them, and I don’t, I just don’t want to go to bars with them because as the group states, I experience CRIPPLING SOCIAL ANXIETY and especia…[Read more]

i’m glad you feel better having said it. sometimes we just need to rant at the universe and it makes things better. :)
-
good on you, muffin. keep on keeping on and do what you can.
-
I am sorry to hear you are having such a rough time of it. You have endure a lot with moving to a new city, etc. I can clearly see why these things can up your anxiety. I don’t think the girl should have said, ” We think you hate us.” Just because your not interested in going to a bar doesn’t mean you dislike the person that asked, sometimes…[Read more]

Oh thats sad dear.. I understand your feelings, even I thought that you are from ‘that’ Cambridge.Just have some patience and hey you are still young and you don’t need to give this much importance to your GAY stuff.Try to adjust with your society until you gets out of the teenage cocoon and who knows maybe someday you will understand you are…[Read more]
Oh my I live in THAT Cambridge, at least when I’m not at uni in London. You’re not alone on AS :)
Hey, I’m heading to THAT Cambridge this October :D … but, wait, is there really no gay scene?
