Okay so comphet has been on my mind a lot so time for a thread.
Just in case any of you are feeling uncertain about it, experiencing comphet doesn& #39;t make you less of a lesbian.
It doesn& #39;t. Even if you are struggling you are still a lesbian and you deserve to feel welcomed and loved as you are.
It& #39;s been a journey for me because I dont really know how to process comphet in a healthy way.
"Coping" has usually consisted of me thinking "welp guess I have no choice but to be into men" and then gaslighting myself until I feel disgusting and I realise I didnt have to do that to myself.
Its OKAY NOT TO LIKE MEN. It& #39;s FINE AND HEALTHY not to like men.
Comphet affects us in different ways. I& #39;m not going to judge how you process it as long as it doesn& #39;t hurt others.
I may not be able to support you through that journey, but I WILL be there on the other side. I dont want anyone to feel alone.
I am posting this thread as much for myself as for others because I& #39;m realizing it needs to BE part of my process.
How I learn best and grow best is through supporting others. It& #39;s just how I am. So if you are a lesbian experiencing comphet — or even if you THINK you might be — don& #39;t hesitate to reach out.
My tendency is to use twitter as a diary which, like it or not, tends to show all the shitty parts of my process as well as the good ones.
I realise that not everyone is okay with that and for some that is reason enough to leave.
What I& #39;m realizing is that as much as possible, that is not how I operate. I want to be there as much as possible for y& #39;all through it all
And asserting that is part of my process.
I do NOT want anyone to feel completely alone. I do NOT want anyone to feel they cant access kinship.
I do NOT want anyone to feel completely alone. I do NOT want anyone to feel they cant access kinship.
