Does your confusion come from doubts in your mind over whether you feel attracted to women or not?
Or does your confusion come from outside. From fear of others' reaction. From shame at the idea of what they will think of you. From the teachings of society or religion over what is "right" and what is "wrong".
I see. That makes sense, thank you. I think it's the first one. Back home, I can't imagine that my friends would judge me for it, and here it's perfectly acceptable.
It's just making me ask questions about myself that I never really asked before. I've enjoyed, um, being with women. Well, a woman. So I know I enjoyed that. But I'm not sure if that's now "what I like."

How do you know if you are or if you aren't?
no subject
Does it come from within, or without?
no subject
Could you elaborate?

That is what I mean.

When did you know that it was what you liked?

And your family?
[Bitterness was a pointless emotion... yet though she would never let it interfere with her missions, she knew it well.
Just as she knows her answer isn't a helpful one... But it's her answer.]
I always knew.
You may just like "her". That is for you to determine.

[It's simple and honest. Why beat around the bush about it?]
And yes, that's what I'm trying to work out. If it's just an attraction to this woman, or to women in general.
But thank you for talking about it with me. I do appreciate it.

You'll probably need to try a few more women, then. It should be easier in a place like this.
I was simply available. You don't need to thank me.
no subject
I'm not sure I'd know where to start doing something like that... the idea of "trying a few more women" just makes my face heat up.
no subject
Use the "moonblessing". That's a start.
no subject
Just... go out and find people? During the moons?
I could never do something like that, I don't think! That'd be a little embarrassing.
no subject
Otherwise, you just wait until you happen to find a woman interesting or not.
It's up to you.
no subject
I can try, after all.
Maybe it won't be for me, but I won't know unless I do, right?
no subject
If you try and don't like it, just stop.
[simple]
no subject
You tried it, and found you liked it?
no subject
And I liked it, yes.
