Work in progress
I believe I have also found my truth but I’m not sure if it will ever be uncovered but i’m working on it!
I grew up in the 80s & with parents who didn’t talk about “that sort of thing”
When i was at high school which was an all girls school, I played a lot of sport (& still do) & I was always trying to impress the girls (& still am lol) but I always came back to thinking it was wrong and that it was expected to find a nice boy and get married etc. But that never happened!
I’ve always been very body conscious & so I wasn’t very confident in speaking to men and I wasn’t one for going out much either.
A couple of years ago I came across “Wynnona Earp” & I loved it from the very 1st episode but especially Waverley and Nicole. I’m a little bit obsessed with their relationship & i often think that I would love to have a relationship like that. Think turning 50 also made me realise it was time to think of myself and what I really wanted.
However, I still haven’t told anyone & if i am honest I am scared to. There have been a couple of times that I’ve thought about discussing it with a friend who is gay & also a couple of my best friends but i always chicken out. I am thinking that i will when/if i meet that special someone but until then just keep quiet.
This is the 1st time I’ve really opened up about my feelings & it feels good & I have Dom, Kat, “Wynona Earp” & the fandom to thank for that.
Attending my first ever con last year and being amongst such an amazing community made me realise that this is the right path for me.
