What should I do if I realize I am a lesbian after getting married

Jan. 20, 2025, 10:30 AM Release

Why do many women only realize they are lesbian after marrying a man? In today's society, behind the complex life proposition of marriage, there are many thought-provoking phenomena hidden. One increasingly prominent situation is that some women only gradually realize their true sexual orientation - lesbianism - after experiencing the significant life event of marrying a man.

So how did this situation come about? Let's try to analyze from four aspects:

1. Limitations and Misguidance of Social Concepts

  • In traditional social beliefs, heterosexuality is considered the only normal mode of sexual orientation. People are surrounded by this concept from a young age, such as fairy tales and love stories presented by mainstream media, which are almost all emotions between men and women. This concept leads women to subconsciously direct their exploration of emotions and intimate relationships towards men during their growth process.

  • There is prejudice and misunderstanding towards homosexuality in society, which makes many women afraid or unable to deeply consider whether they have homosexual tendencies. They may be afraid of discrimination or not have access to enough accurate information to guide them in understanding their sexual orientation. For example, in areas with a strong religious atmosphere or conservative thinking, topics related to homosexuality are suppressed, and women find it difficult to discover their true emotional tendencies in such an environment.

2. Comparative awareness after experiencing intimate relationships

  • Intimate behavior in marriage, such as sexual activity, may make women more aware of their sexual orientation. Some women do not feel sexual attraction or pleasure when having intimate contact with men, but instead develop stronger emotional and physical attraction during the process of interacting with women. For example, in contact with female friends after marriage, emotions such as increased heart rate and curiosity about their bodies may occur, which are missing in the relationship with the husband.

  • On an emotional level, women may find that their feelings towards their husbands in marriage are more based on family, friendship, or a sense of social responsibility, rather than romantic love and sexual attraction. In contrast, when they encounter certain women, they will have an uncontrollable impulse to get close to and understand each other, and this strong emotional contrast makes them begin to doubt their sexual orientation.

3. The gradual maturity and awakening of self-awareness

  • After marriage, women's life stages change and they become more psychologically mature. This gives them the opportunity to re-examine their emotions and desires. When dealing with various affairs and relationships in marital life, they may recall their past emotional experiences with women, such as the special attention and love they had for a female friend during their student days. Previously, they may have attributed it to a simple friendship, but now they are starting to think about whether it has a deeper meaning.

  • As they grow older and gain more experience, they are exposed to more knowledge and concepts about sexual orientation, such as reading books, watching movies and TV shows, or learning about the existence and related discussions of the LGBTQ+community online. These pieces of information prompt them to reflect on their emotions and discover that they may be lesbian.

4. Re evaluation of female friendship and emotional depth

  • Before marriage, intimate friendships between women can easily be misunderstood as just ordinary friendships. However, after getting married, when they start thinking about the emotions and intimate relationships they truly want, they will find that their feelings for certain female friends go beyond the scope of general friendship. For example, they may have a strong protective or exclusive desire towards their female friends, or always overly rely on each other emotionally. This deep emotional connection makes them realize that their feelings towards women may be a form of love.

Of course, these are all theoretical analyses, and the real conclusion still needs to be combined with the actual situation.
