so many young lesbians date just to have a girlfriend because they think it’s their one ticket to happiness and it turns into toxic relationships based on shallow connections in which theyre shit talking their gf 24/7 but still posting 30 “i love my gf” posts a day on 3 separate social media sites because they think it’s what they’re supposed to do and it’s so sad
it’s okay to just be sometimes. you don’t have to force a relationship that isn’t meant to be just for appearances or social expectations
to add to this: even if you are in a healthy loving relationship you don’t have to post everything you do. i see young lesbians (and did this myself) feeling like they have to compulsively share every part of their relationship because they are so excited and are feeling so much but i just want all young lesbians to know keeping private intimate moments and even cute silly moments between you and your gf can be so much more rewarding and healthy.
the pressure to turn your relationship into a performance in lesbian circles can be overwhelming and honestly it cheapens a lot of romantic experiences
