Yay! I got someone's attention! I know you had to be lurking out there somewhere, Lynne! I think it's time this thread got active again. I know I could use the support I can only get from folks who understand me. It sucks when I post a comment about my DH and suddenly 3/4 of the people who were posting in the thread suddenly disappear or better yet, completely ignore me from that point on. It doesn't happen on this forum a lot, but it does on others. But I have to (and hate to) admit, sometimes the LGBT folks (especially other guys) are just as bad when they find out that I was once married to a woman and have kids. I guess that's why most of my friends are Lesbians - they "get it."

Anyway, let's get this thread up and running strong again!!

Last winter, C and I were hanging with all of these Latin men from Miami. We met one couple at the Opera, and then that couple turned us onto all of "their" couple friends. We were being invited to some of the splashiest parties, I've ever been to. Latins love to party-hearty!

As I got to know all of them, I learned that all of them have been either:
married
married with children
or had girlfriends when they met their partners.. Usually at gyms!

And I too, was in the hetero game. I wanted children, and it was taboo for a woman to have children, as a single woman. I met two men that fell in love with me, and also wanted kids. They also thought they could "flip" me. But alas, that wasn't the case.

And husband #2 dragged my ass through the court system, letting the world know I was a lesbian, and in return, the Honorable Judge labled me an "UNFIT mother" and took my son away from me. He said, and I quote, "Lesbians make UNFIT mothers."

Instead of doing anything destructive to myself, I enrolled in college, got my degree at 45, and figured that God had something else planned for me. That was the only way I could justify the cruel and unusual punishment I was receiving. If it matters to any of you, I raised a daughter before I had my son. So.... being an unfit mother never occurred to me. In fact, my daughter thinks I'm a pretty swell mom. She's 22 now. My son is now 13, and has suffered tremondously at the hands of his father, and the woman his father lives with. That heterosexual couple verbally, emotionally, and mentally abused my son. He's a mess. I have him with me most days, and I'm homeschooling him. This unfit mother has taken her son's education and put it into her hands.. And the ironic thing? His dad is totally supportive of what I'm doing. Unift or no fit, I was the only one that cared about his future.

Enjoy the rest of the week.
Survivor is on tonight.
And....... you should all go to the bottom of this page, when commenting, and hit the "daily email notification button." That way, you will know when someone has posted.

Andddddddddddd another thing.... how are you all doing with your weight control?

Well, my labs are all looking sooooo much better (they're posted in my journal), but weight is just NOT budging. But on the up side, as I'm now on 66 i.u. of insulin every night, at least I'm not gaining anything! We have been having work done on the house for the last two months (literally), then we have a Halloween party coming up on the 15th that we have to finish getting ready for, then after that I'm going to try to get back into the gym. Maybe the scales will move for me then...

Hey everyone! Whats up?

Oh, my! I forgot all about this thread!

Hi everyone! I’m coming in to say hi!

My name’s Angel, I’m 24 from MI, and I’m a lesbian. Single, too, although “kind of sort of” dating a really nice woman. (why do I feel like I’m introducing myself at an AA meeting or something?! Lol)
I’m glad the thread got resurrected- I need to come in and talk to people who understand when I say something like “I want to lose another 30 pounds before the Pride parade” lol
I’m about halfway done losing weight (55 down, 55 to go!) and finally feel like I am at a comfortable place in my life, and I know this time it’ll actually “stick” I’m on a mishmash of a few different plans…

We have similar signatures.

hey lol neat!
I got it from Angelina; I just thought it was so fitting with all of the food issues I've been having

Hello from Germany

Hi again, Wow its been awhile. I'm more or less not dating.
I'm too scared to try dating women and men just find me not feminine enough. What a place to be in. Anywho

I have friends and family and Its not a bad thing
Hugs to you all
Kassie

I agree 100%. Although I am married and live a heterosexual lifestyle, my opinion of someone who is gay is generally higher than someone who is not. The most intelligent, fascinating people I have known are gay.

After all, maybe we are all at least a little gay. Perhaps the tendencies are just more latent in some people than in others. It's a thought, anyway.

Hi all, trying to resurrect this thread yet again. Anyone still out there...??

I am married with 2 children and recently discovered that ive been bi-sexual all my life and had been supressing it. Ive had gay friends and lived with trannies before.. its a bit hard for me to deal with the fact I may never get to be with anyone besides my husband though *sighs* But at least he is open enough to accept me for who i am.
