Sometimes when we are too similar it’s hard to connect. The less we know the better, I speak from my heart em experiences with my t only. When she disclosed a lot about herself recently it drove me away from her because I knew on some level she had too much going on in her personal life and couldn’t support me.
I wonder because you are both lesbians does that prohibit you from connecting? I ask because I would have real difficulty connecting with a lesbian t being a lesbian myself. I would be terrified of getting close or connecting and of attachment.
