LGBTQIAP+ Milestones: Book 3

Who I Am

By Raven

~

Hi, my name is Raven.

For a long time I didn't know what "LGBTQ" was. I thought it would be weird for two girls or two boys to be together. That changed when I met my now exgirlfriend, I won't say her name, but she was horrible to me, so we broke up.

About a year ago I developed a crush on my best friend, but she was confused about her sexuality. We decided to wait a few months and see.

A few months later, we gave it up. It was never gonna work, but we remained friends and we aren't awkward around eachother.

Me and one if my friends went to the cinema and she told me about her bisexual friend, Beth, and offered to set me up with her. I said yes.

We met and I developed feelings for her. She felt the same way, and halfway through an Ice skating party, she asked me to be her girlfriend and I said yes. Now we are in a long distance relationship and are talking across text message.

Recently I have been thinking about my gender. I feel more like a boy than a girl. I don't know what to do about it. I am still confused and am waiting for the day that I finally find out who I am and where I belong.
