So I'm bisexual girl. I've known for about, I wanna say 10 months? I have been pretty much out of the closet to almost everyone for around 6 months. My parents have known for 2. Anyway...

So I wanted to share a maybe small milestone to some, but pretty huge one for me.

A few weeks ago, I went to a friend's birthday party. I had a lot of fun, and I became pretty well acquainted with the other guests. Particularly one girl, Elise. So me and Elise had known each other from school, but had only seen one another around and we rarely talked.

Throughout the party, we chatted and laughed a lot, and it was awesome. Me, my friend who was having the party and Elise, all made a joke about being on the bi couch, as we were the three bisexuals of the party. That opened a new door for me of knowing Elise. One more thing in common with her.

After the party, we exchanged numbers. And we texted. Almost all night, every night for the next few days. That's when I discovered that we had a ton in common, she was really funny and sweet, and....... problem. I liked her.

We got into a conversation about crushes one time. We both mentioned liking a girl from school, neither of us would tell who.

Then it happened, my friend texted me.

-Do you like Elise?-

My mind immediately went to one thought. Could Elise like me?

I texted Elise and my friend both, to ask if they were up to something. Things got really awkward for a while. I was freaking out, and then she told me she liked me. It was amazing. I was so happy.

We started getting out of the awkward stage and started to warm up to the idea of being girlfriends. This was so incredible for me. My first relationship is my first girlfriend. Not only that, my first girlfriend was Elise. All of this was so special.

If I had been told back in September that I was bisexual, would get my first relationship, who would be my first girlfriend, and that girlfriend was Elise, by the end of the year, I don't even know what I would do. It's so wonderfully incredible what I have discovered about myself and done for myself in under a year.

And sure there have been bad times, and there will be more, that's just what happens in life. But I can say now, I'm happy. Through all the rude people and terrible ideas and crazy influences, I can say I'm genuinely happy.

Because I'm bisexual, and I have Elise.

(Talking to you, luv ya girl) ❤️
