Your wlw aunt...

Advice and positive vibes from a 29-year-old wlw who has experienced a thing or two.

Reminder to nonbinary people of color:

You are awesome and amazing and I love you.

[your-wlw-aunt]

are nonbinary people who consider themselves wlw welcome to apply for modship?

Of course! This blog welcomes diversity.

Looking for mods...

I'm so thrilled with the positive response this blog has gotten, but with that comes the need for a couple more mods or wlw "aunts." If you're interested, just go to my inbox and tell me a little about yourself and why you'd like to be a wlw aunt. All applicants must be wlw and age 23+ 😊

Lesbians with acne are still desirable and beautiful and good! It sucks, I know, but it also doesn’t make you any less than what you are - perfect! And worthy of love! Go on being perfect, all of you!

Help, I like one of my friends and I feel so bad about it. She's a lesbian and I'm pan, so I'm not worried about her being straight. I'm just afraid she doesn't like me or she'll figure out I like her and get mad and hate me. I'm 13 and she's 14 so it won't last even if we date and I seriously can't cope with this. Help.

Having a crush on a friend is completely normal, but if you feel as if it’s eating you up inside, I suggest that you have a talk with her. Let her know that you have a crush on her and that, if she doesn’t feel the same way, you respect her feelings and you don’t want it to jeopardize your friendship. If the feeling isn’t mutual and she’s a true friend, she’ll get over what you said and it won’t change anything between the two of you. And if she feels the same, well, you might just have yourself a girlfriend. :)

I am going to a new school soon and I'm very afraid that I wont find anyone I can trust. I know I "will find the one someday" but I dont know when. And if i meet her there im afraid i might pass her up. Please help!!!!

When you meet the right one, believe me when I say you won’t just pass her up. She’ll change your world in a way that you can’t even begin to imagine until you meet her. It might happen a year from now or ten years from now, but until it does just try to make the best of things at your new school. If you’re not ready to trust anyone right away, you can always start slow. There is absolutely nothing wrong with getting a feel for things and gradually opening up.

If you're flirting with a sapphic girl who knows that you're gay is there a way to subtly flirt with them & how do you know if they are flirting with you?

I know every girl has her own way of flirting, but I’ve always found that eye contact is the telltale sign. Pay close attention to how she looks at you when you’re talking to her. Also, finding subtle ways to touch you are a good sign...like touching your arm, your hair, “accidentally” brushing her hand against yours.

Really missing my girlfriend right now.

I'm 17 and I have acne. It's disgusting and I can't get rid of it (I eat healthy, exercise, have seen docs/derms, tried EVERY skin care product). I'm sick of how horrible it makes me feel. It's my last year of high school and I want to enjoy it, go to prom but I can't because I have acne on my chest & back too. I'm at a loss for what to do. I know it sounds stupid but I just really hate myself and I have no one to talk to about this so I'm really sorry this is ended up being such a rant :(

First of all, I just want to say that what you’re telling me doesn’t sound stupid in the slightest. Girls with acne are still beautiful, but I know me saying that doesn’t change anything. It has to come from yourself. Is it cystic acne that you have? If it is, that might be why the topical creams don’t help. Around the time I turned 25, I started getting terrible cystic acne and what really helped me was Doxycycline. It’s an antibiotic for acne and rosacea. I was on it for about three months and my skin was clearer than ever before. 

Please remember that you are not alone in this. I’m right there with you and so are many other girls and women.

So I have a wlw sex ed sort of blog and I was wondering if I told you the URL if you would mind doing a little promo? It's the same concept as this blog- offering advice and education for other wlw but I don't want to just assume you will

I would love to do a promo! Sex ed blogs are so important and something we definitely need. Not many cater to wlw.

Lately I’ve noticed a lot of younger wlw on tumblr asking for advice about dating, coming out, and other important topics and, since I’m significantly older than a lot of tumblr users (29 years old here), I’ve decided to create a blog specifically for advice and positivity for wlw who want advice from an adult but might not have someone they can talk to. Consider me a non-judgmental wlw aunt.

My ask box is always open and you can remain anonymous if you’d like.

[wlwdiscourse]

same here! ♡ 

I love giving advice + I’m in a relationship

[your-wlw-aunt]

💕 I love your blog. Let me know if you want to co-mod.

Reminder: Girls/women can be abusive too. If you have been abused by a girl/woman it’s okay, you aren’t weak because of it. If you are in an abusive relationship, leave. If you feel like you can’t, ask for help or talk to someone.

Reminder to all the Christian LGBT+ individuals who have been told they are going to hell or that God hates them:

God loves everyone, no matter what gender you are or who you love, God will love you. Being LGBT+ does not mean you’re going to hell, I promise
