I have opened up myself to the possiblity (I really put myself in lesbian shoes) and since then, I've had a great, positive effect on my relations with all people. I feel like I pose less threat to others (especially hetero girls), as long as I come from this lesbian approach. True or crap? I don't flirt, just have open mind.

I think the thing that helps the most is being open minded. By opening your mind to other ideas and analyzing what people are saying, and actually paying attention to what people are saying, you've become better at dealing with others.
When my parents made me pretend to be a straight male instead of the bi woman I am, I was too hung up on my own issues to communicate well with others. Now that I'm myself and over much of that I'm better able to pay attention to what someone has to say and actually have a real conversation with someone for once.
Guess that makes two yeses to your question.

I havent really come out yet.. Am freaking out to see how it influences my relationships with people.. Because most of my friends are Christian, and I went to church for a considerable amount of time..
But I do see how it workks in your situation. I think it is because you now see yourself more objectively, you know who you are, you know what you want and this cant but make your relationships with people fuller. As for being a threat.. There are such jealous ladies.. No matter what, they just hate Any competition,, Don't know.. Tell me how it goes please..

I'm not quite sure what you are saying...is it...that you have a better relationship with straight women since you have told them that you are a lesbian?..If that's what you are asking I have no idea....I know as a gay man that straight women feel less threatened by me.

Sure does! I'm a lesbian, and my experiences have helped a lot of my friends. They seek my opinions on relationships, both gay and straight. Coz I've had boyfriends before I accepted my sexual orientation. Jeez, that was a weird time! lol!

I think self confidence is always attractive. I think it allows us to be who we are, therefore being true to ourselves. I think it lets us give others the same opportunity.
However I'm not sure why you thought you were a threat before.
