Here is a sapphic, turn-the-straight-girl, u-haul across continents kind of tumblr love story for you all.
It all started with Assassins Creed Valhalla and creating a tumblr page to dive into my lastest hyperfixation. I was watching a twitch stream one night (which I'd never done, mind you) and started chatting through the comments with the streamer and the other 3 people watching. We decided to make a discord server to make it easier to chat.
A day or so into the chat, one particular member made a slightly off colour joke that I thought was funny and I immediately jumped on it. She was a goat farmer so I dm'ed asking about her (at the time) 29 goats. She thought I was annoying as fuck 🤣
I persevered because I knew that we'd be friends and eventually won her over with my quick wit and Australian humour (it was actually because I was nice enough to listen to her problems LOL).
Once she realised I'm actually amazing 🤭😉, we just clicked. We talked about everything under the sun including my relationship of 9 years that I thought was still going strong and her relationship that she'd been wanting out of for some time. She knew that I was untouchable in terms of a romantic interest so she let herself have the type of friend she'd always wanted - reliable and kind.
Fast forward a year later after talking every day, video chatting weekly and navigating some hard situations together, I made the 24 hr journey to the States to meet this person that had become such a close friend in person.
The moment I got into the car with her and her Mum was probably one of the most defining moments in my story. I felt like I'd known them my entire life. This wasn't some physical stranger on the opposite side of the world, this was my best friend and her Mom picking me up from the airport - it felt like we'd done it a million times.
We quickly realised that the pull between us was magnetic and we danced around a physical boyndary that we did not want to cross. I was obviously so very confused. I returned to Aus with a massive question mark over my head. It turned out that my relationship had been dying a slow and painful death for quite some time and I had needed this experience to lift my veil of denial and give me a kick in the ass. We took the time to end our relationships (both of almost 10 years) in a way we felt comfortable with and trying to do the best by our exes.
Living on opposite sides of the world mixed in with a chronic illness, a farm full of animals and our general anxiety 😅, we faced some tough decisions.
It's been 7 months since I moved to the United States.
5 months since we got married.
So here we are, best friends and wives 🧜♀️🧜♀️ (possibly mermaids in a past life if she got her way 🤣🤦♀️)
Never in a million years did I think I'd find myself in the queer community but look at this crazy curve ball life threw my way. A baby pansexual who married a woman she met on the internet. It doesn't *always* end in murder 🤣
