Dear Queerantine,

Let’s give space to our stories

For me, there was no “awakening” moment of realizing that I’m queer. I’ve known since I was a kid that I have romantic fascination towards girls, so it just sorta grew into me the older I get.


Although, when I first knew the term “lesbian”, it hit me with 0 surprise that I’m gay. I never saw myself as “different” until I knowingly learned about it from my surroundings. These somehow created subliminal messages that it simply wasn’t possible to have a normal same-sex relationship (at least in where I reside). So I never pursued this.


Then universe proved me wrong. Simply by letting me fell in love twice (I know it’s a rather very small amount in my 26 years of living 😂) with 2 spectacular women. I still didn’t know how a normal relationship would go but damn these relationships that I had felt perfectly normal and right.


And ladies, that’s how I learned that maybe it’s true on the outside I am a queer, but I don’t feel anything that queer experiencing it.

😍 Jakarta, Indonesia
