A safe space for GSRM (Gender, Sexual, and Romantic Minority) folk to discuss their lives, issues, interests, and passions. LGBT is still a popular term used to discuss gender and sexual minorities, but all GSRM are welcome beyond lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people who consent to participate in a safe space

Congrats!

I don't know about you but I always find the second date more nerve-wracking than the first date

Same TBH 😓

To me, it’s like I need to maintain the image of “perfect GF”. We’ve been friends for a while but now we’re more

You should always strive to be the best partner you can be but don’t put “perfection”-level pressure on yourself. What’s important is constant communication and listening to your partner’s needs (as well as thoughtfully expressing yours!)

If you just can do those two things you’re doing better than most and setting yourself up for as much success as you can hope for in your relationship.

Thank you! I’m happy because I usually get shyer around men but I feel so confident with her

(I generally find same-gender relationships easier even as a “mostly straight” lady)

Congrats! Happy for you, wish I was this one day. 🩷
