Hello!
Soo where do I start? I am looking to see if anyone can relate or give me some advice
26 F (lesbian)
Context:
When I was in my younger college/highschool years I had many hookups. These were fun and thrilling…then I got into a long term relationship
We dated for 4.6 years and broke up about 6 months ago …..
What’s going on:
I started hooking up with one person for about 2-3 months but it fell off (which was fine don’t want anything serious). Then I dipped my toes in again but ended up feeling awful absolutely AWFUL…third time is a charm 🙃 shocker after I felt SHITTY mentally
I have decided to put dating and sex on the back burner and focus on making friends/joining local communities and self
I go to therapy once a week and this was talked about…
But I think I realized that I need an emotional and physical connection prior to having intimate moments with someone.
Though my brain and body wants to have sex with someone, it seems that emotionally I can not handle it with out creating a safe space first
Can anyone relate to this?
This is a new feeling/ realization for me
