i am new here, please bear with me. i am 25 and i only had one relationship with a woman but it didnt ended well, she chose to be with a man. she was the one who courted me and i was her 4th lesbian relationship. my problem is, my being lesbian is not known to everybody. im hiding in my closet so to speak. the person who knew about it was my ex girlfriend. now i like a friend so much that i wanted to have a relationship with her. i love her secretly. all she knew is that im straight but i dont have a boyfriend. there are guys who are courting but i dont wanna be in a relationship with them. i need help on how to be honest of my feelings to my friend. im afraid she might reject me and lose the friendship, worst, she might tell everybody about my true self
