I want to thank all of you for making me feel so welcome, it really helps. I don't feel so isolated with my confusion. I wasn't clear on the fact that I am no longer married, I have been divorced for quite a few years now. I have gone out on dates with men but I just don't feel anything when they kiss me except boardom. I started to watch the Logo network and it just started me thinking about the what if factor. What if I was attracted to women? The thought of going out with a woman makes me feel like a teenager again! Nervous. I have done a lot of self reflection lately and when I look back on my life I see that I have been attracted to women the whole time. How is that for unaware? I wish I had a lesbian friend who could give me some guidence on this whole thing. I guess that it is lucky I found this message board huh?

Hey Jody!
I am so glad you found the board!! And already being divorced means you can live the life you were meant to live and we look forward to helping you along that path.
Hang out and join in the fun and ask any questions you have.
We're so glad you're here, Jody, and we certainly want to be your friends. I think it's normal for some of us to follow the path you have with regard to figuring out you're attracted to women. That's kind of how it happened to me. I was watching a lesbian movie, and some feelings that I'd had throughout my life about wanting to be with women came flooding back. I then realized that my feelings had been crushes. I'd never really put much thought into what they were.
So, just go with it and see where you land. You're in a perfect position to do that, and we're here to help, listen, and support you. There's nothing better than those giddy teenager feelings, huh??!!
I'm so glad you're feeling welcomed here - I'm new as well and folks have been so friendly. I'm feeling much the same as you described. Its like over the past couple of months my eyes have been opened to a new level of existence and suddenly the feelings and experiences of a lifetime are taking on a new meaning. All of those high school crushes. The confusing and overwhelming grief I felt at my best friend's wedding. At the time I thought it was jealousy because I wasn't getting married - well yeah, but now I see it was because I wasn't getting married to HER. The utter letdown that was my much-anticipated first kiss with my future husband.
Joining you in the formerly completely unaware corner ;)

Hey, Jody, welcome. I'm pretty new here myself. These women are wonderful and won't let you down. They are a wild and crazy bunch, also, when they want to be. I think you will find a safe and comforting home. I have. We are all on life's journey together.
Hugs

Jody, looks like we're members of the same tribe :)
