[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for all the interesting viewpoints. I guess as a woman of the same age, it feels so strange to suddenly start experimenting with woman or changing directions and deciding I'm a lesbian. I know there is some fluidity in sexuality, this just felt like a really fast 180. Maybe she had been attracted to women previously and it was something she had never talked about, I don't know.

The demise of our friendship is must less about her being a lesbian and more about Anna and how she acts. I think if Anna had been a man -people would have spoken up about possible ulterior motives. But since it was a woman and she had decided she was a lesbian, it was as though everyone had to see her as courageous and strong and amazing for now being a lesbian and Anna too. It was interesting to see how differently the relationship and people in it were talked about by everyone because they were lesbians. Very different social expectations.

[b]They live in California in a city with a large lesbian community so my friend's whole social circle and friend group has changed. 90% of the people they spend time with now are gay or lesbian[/b].[/quote]

I think this has a lot to do with it.  In some places it's extremely square for a woman to be a plain vanilla heterosexual. [/quote]
