“I’d rather have a dead daughter than a gay one”
That’s what my ex’s mother said to her years ago, when we were 15. She kicked my ex out of home and threatened my life some time after. That’s also when my ex started doing drugs.
Today the woman I loved when we were teenagers fell from the 9th floor of a building while high as a fucking kite. She was 24, a polyglot, taught English to native kids from poor communities in Brazil, was an animal lover vegan, a writer, and a proudly out bisexual woman.
Ladies, take care of your lesbian and bisexual sisters. The lesbophobia perpetrated by families put many of us in terrible paths. I also notice that women addicts tend to lose their support net way quicker than males.
And to all of the women struggling with addiction right now… Stay safe. I know there isn’t much I can say that hasn’t been said before, so that’s all I ask for. Reduce harm as much as you can. Quitting is not easy, I know, but you need to at least stay alive right now. Just fucking take care of yourselves.
I love you all.
Edit: I’d like to thank all of you for the kind words, but I don’t find myself able to answer individually right now. To make things clear, yes, we dated as teenagers, broke up when things got really hard, but never stopped being friends, sometimes lovers, y’all know how things go. We went totally different paths though, dated other women and men, fought and made peace with each other many times, but she would forever be my teenage sweetheart, the one I loved and cherished despite life putting us in different paths. And I still love her very much. It’s been 10 years of love and then friendship and we went through a lot together, I don’t think you can ever stop loving a person after how much we went through together. And believe me, despite her bad decisions, she was amazing, she was beautiful, she had the most contagious smile in this world, she was so genuine, had the sweetest drawly accent I’ve ever heard, and was just so smart, so painfully intelligent, and so full of life. Once again, I’m thankful for your kindness. Take care of yourselves and each other, life is just too fragile.

Me after trying to explain to another woman that mocking the way other women age is ALWAYS misogynistic and not “valid criticism” source
Guy from a dating app unleashed his incel misogyny on me
We had 1 date and I thought he seemed really weird and awkward. I walked away not wanting to see him again, but when he asked for a 2nd date I decided I should give him another chance because first dates are always hard.
He said he'd plan bowling or something like that and then disappeared for a week, I assumed I was ghosted and was fine with that.
Then out of the blue after not hearing from him for a week, he asked me over to his place to watch a movie and said we might talk but no guarantee. So I assumed that's asking for a hookup and ignored it.
The next day he sends this text:
"You know you're almost 30 right? Most of your eggs are already dried up. That is a fact. Tick tock tick tock that is your limited value going out the window. Best of luck, you glass of aged milk. Mr. Perfect isn't out there, you're too old to be picky. Sorry for being honest. Your life sucks."
I recently broke up with a different guy and when I broke it off he said similar things.
"Years may go by before you find someone else and then you'll get to a point where you can't have kids. You might still be attractive when you're older but I mean I haven't even hit my peak attractiveness yet and won't until I'm in my 40s. But women have a much smaller window. You have a biological clock that's gonna run out."
Mind you that guy didn't even want to have kids.
I guess I'm done. I was happier single with my career, friends, family, and hobbies than I have been since I allowed these men into my life.
