First of all I wanted to thank everybody who posted. It made me really happy, and I love knowing that there’s people out there that can understand me, and that I have things in common with. With the people I know I always feel so out of place, when they talk about they husbands and kids. And people always ask me “when are you getting married” and I just roll my eyes. I think and I hope that when my girlfriend is here with me things will be different. They might be harder cause I’ll just have to come out to more people than I have. Right now just my close family knows. None of my friends here know. Rejection scares me, but I think it would be easier if I have someone that loves me here with me. Right now I feel really lonely, even though I know I have a girlfriend far away that loves me, I miss having someone WITH me. As you might know from my profile, I am from Chile, and seeing lesbian couples is not very usual here. And it’s not usual at all between the people I know. Whenever one of my friends talks about someone being gay it’s always in a negative way… I really wish people wouldn’t be so judgmental. I’m starting to think that I complain too much lol. I’m sorry I’m just going through some hard times. I’ve only been trying to accept that I’m a lesbian for a few months, and being alone and not knowing anyone here that feels the way I do is just hard. The only persons I can talk to about everything are my sister and my dad. Yeah my dad is a really understanding person, even if it sounds weird, we have a great relationship. My sister is my best friend, but she’s gone for the summer, she’s working at the US so I don’t have a lot of people to talk to. Sooo I just ramble here for anyone that cares to read lol. ;) I would love to feel “normal” … Does anyone out there who’s gay feel normal and accepted? Cause I sure don’t… and I wish I knew how to feel that way. Anyway last night we had a good talk with my girlfriend about her moving here and all. We both have our fears and all, but we can’t wait til august so that she can be here with me. I really hope that everything works out.

Primero que nada quiero agradecer a todos los que hicieron comentarios. Me puse muy contenta, me gusta saber que hay gente que me entiende, y con la que tengo cosas en común. Con las personas que yo conozco, siempre me siento fuera de lugar, cuando hablan de sus maridos e hijos. Y siempre me preguntan cuando me voy a casar, y yo solo los miro y pongo cara de “paciencia”.
Yo creo, y espero que cuando mi pareja esté aquí conmigo, las cosas van a ser diferentes. A lo mejor van a ser más difíciles, porque voy a tener que “salir del closet” con mas personas. Por ahora solo mi familia sabe, ninguna de mis amigas sabe nada. Me asusta el rechazo, pero creo que las cosas serían más fáciles si tuviera alguien que me quiera aquí conmigo. Ahora me siento muy sola, aunque tengo a mi pareja lejos, extraño mucho tener a alguien aquí, conmigo.
Como pueden saber por mi perfil, soy de Chile, y ver a parejas de lesbianas no es común aquí. Y no es para nada común entre mi circulo de amigos. Cada vez que sale el tema “gay” siempre es de una forma negativa. Me gustaría que la gente no fuera tan critica...
Estoy pensando que quizás me quejo mucho ja ja! Perdón, no es mi intención, pero estoy pasando por un tiempo difícil. Solo llevo pocos meses tratando de aceptar que soy lesbiana, y estar sola sin conocer a nadie aquí que se sienta como yo, es difícil. Las únicas personas con las que hablo de todo son mi hermana y mi papá. Mi papá es una persona muy comprensiva, y tenemos una muy buena relación. Mi hermana es mi mejor amiga, pero está trabajando todo el verano en USA, así es que no tengo mucha gente con quien conversar. Por eso escribo aca, para quien le interese leer! ;)
Me gustaría sentirme “normal”. No les pasa a veces el no sentirse normales y aceptadas?
Anoche tuvimos una buena conversación con mi pareja, sobre ella viniéndose a vivir acá. Las dos tenemos temores, pero no podemos esperar a que sea agosto y ella se venga. Espero de verdad que todo resulte bien.

I feel normal for the first time in my life. This is normal for me. I was married to a man for 13 years, THAT made me feel strange, unnatural. Jennifer and I feel "right". I love my life, I have never been happier. I don't know what it's like where you are, so I can't give you any advice. Is your girlfriend in the U.S.? How did you meet her?
Hang in there girl... it'll work out.
Where is your girl from?
Me? I feel accepted (except from my family).
But everyone I know is great about my being married to Jess... I feel very lucky.
Thanks everybody for your comments. My girlfriend is from New Jersey, I´ll tell you all the story of how we met soon. :)
And Jd I can´t stand people who judge others either... Thanks for the welcome! :)
I am with the person who said being with men felt weird and unnatural. When I first came back home I contemplated on "turning back straight" because I kept hearing all these jabs at gay people from my family who didn't know I am. But thankfully I have some really great friends who helped me see the light, and what normal is for me. So far only my friends and some family know. But everyone who I have come out to has been completely accepting, understanding and supportive. My parents still don't know and they are the ones I fear the most considering they are very conservative christians, but in the end I know that what happens is what happens.. I know what feels normal and right for me and that is all that matters to me now.. BEING HAPPY. Give it some time, you will eventually get there!
