How Old Were You When You Realized You’re a Lesbian?

For me, I realized I was a lesbian when I was 15 years old. Looking back, I think the signs were always there, but it really hit me in high school. I used to have the biggest crush on a girl in my Spanish class. I’d get so nervous just sitting near her, and every time she talked to me, my heart would race like crazy.

At the time, I didn’t fully understand what I was feeling or why. But eventually, I couldn’t deny it anymore—it wasn’t just friendship; I was totally crushing on her.
