for context, im 21 (turning 22 this august) and I've had my ups and downs in discovering my sexuality. i dated some guys and had sex with some of them years ago, and only this year have i come to terms with the reality that i'm a lesbian. i still struggle with heteronormativity sometimes, but i'm much more secure in myself and my identity.
the thing is, because of how long it took me to figure it out, i spent my entire teenage without many experiences with women. i haven't dated any, nor have i had many romantic experiences in general. i feel like a late bloomer and really inexperienced in those matters.
my insecurity stems from witnessing many wlw conversations on various platforms (tiktok, reddit, twitter, etc.) about how many women, especially lesbians, don't want to be another woman's first wlw relationship.
i feel particularly isolated given that in my career and line of work there are not many queer people and i live far from the city (not a small town but not the city center either) so i don't know how or where to start navigate
any advice is appreciated
