    “

    Having the crush isn't the problem—it's what we do with those feelings that matters. Learning to sit with complicated feelings without immediately acting on them is actually a really important life skill.

    Eingabefrage

    I really love being a lesbian but having a crush on a girl teacher is too much right?. When we see her at first , I kept looking at her because I like her style. We are the same, kinda boyish then that's it. But days passed I started questioning myself that if I have a crush on her, I'm zoning out and thinking this is not right and I'm insane. That's the first time I felt that being a lesbian is hard. Idk I'm kinda confused too
