19 year old me met my current best friend on a dating app, because I was still convinced I was straight back then. We connected straight away and he was, and still is, an amazing guy. But again I did not feel anything when we started hanging out. I seriously wanted to punch myself in the face, here he was a super nice and respectful guy who thinks the world of me and I can't even feel something. We talked about it and he soon figured out I wasn't straight and he told me in a very respectful way, no hard feelings he said. He really surprised me and I did not want to believe what he said at first, but he stayed with me and we had many talks about the subject. A few months later we finally reached the moment I started to realize and accept the fact that I liked girls and that I was not going to have this standard relationship, this was still very important to me because of where I grew up and therefore it bother me. My best friend kept assuring me that being with a girl was not any different than being with a guy, love is love he always said. Isn't he the best?
Fast forward, it took me about 2,5 years to fully accept and rediscover myself, but oh boy did it feel great when I finally hit that moment. I never felt so alive, happy, and free, the feeling of those struggles and doubts falling of your shoulders is one of the best moments I ever had.
