I'm 21, mostly lesbian, and kind of insecure. It's very rare that I can attract a girl, and so I "settle" for (and encourage) male attention to feel better about myself. Tell me how to stop. [more inside]

Recently I found out that my 10th grade flame is not only doing well, but has ditched a potential husband and come out. She looks great. I wouldn't think anything of it, except that my first true love and the first girl I ever kissed also decided they were gay after seeing me. What're the odds? Am I recruiting for the other team?
