Default Re introduction

Hello BF Folk, Just like to re introduce myself. I was a member a few years ago, Daisy Chain, I closed an email and effectively managed to lock myself out of my account then life got busy and time went by but I have found myself dropping in as a guest of late so thought I would re join to post on occasion and fully enjoy the site. I notice a few changes here and there, seems like love has been in the air on the Planet, that makes my heart smile !

Default indigo says Hello :)

Dear members,

I travelled through the www-univers and decided to explore this planet a little further, so here is my first post in which I'd like to say hello to all users and hope we will write and read each other in the future. English isn't the native language of my home planet, so exuse me for any linguistic inaccuracies

About myself: I have a passion for discovering and learning new stuff and always want to try several things at the same time - which messes my unfavourable time management even more up. To me, there is hardly anything that is 100% boring (apart from tax return forms) Currently, I am in a phase in my life where I become aware of deep needs that I'd buried for a long time. I have a quite restless mind and still believe in true love - yes I am a romantic at heart and believe in commitment. I enjoy freedom and search for an anchor at the same time, I appreciate a homely environment and love to travel - which i should do more often. I lived some years abroad and am quite sure not to become a granny in my home country.

So far, so good. Let's see and read

Default Hello!

Hello!

I'm still getting to grips with all this (waves hand around) and I'm a tad nervous, so here goes, hope it comes out coherent!

Tell us a little bit about yourselves!
I lucked into a relationship with a younger woman in my 30's, first time for both of us. That lasted somewhat over a decade but we drifted apart (still friends though). I was too nervous to approach the lesbian scene until my involvement with the roller derby scene (since the start of 2016) boosted my confidence, and since the start of 2017, i've been gradually spreading my wings, finding groups to join, and improving my social life.

I used to be obviously femme in appearance, but always had a bit of a tomboy streak to my character. Currently feeling comfy somewhere in the middle of the butch-femme spectrum. Not too fussed about nailing myself down with labels, I see them as more like place-names on a map I'm wandering around a bit on until I find a place I'm comfy at. Or maybe I'll just slowly wander around forever. I dunno! (shrugs, smiles)

Oh, and despite my age, am regarding myself as a teenager at the moment, because I didn't really do teens back when the calendar said I should (don't want to go into that now). Since I made the mental switch from "heck, what I'm going through now is kinda like me being teenage" to 'heck with it, I AM a teeanager" it's been rather liberating, and I've been enjoying life more. So yeah, the calendar says I'm 59. Socially - knock 40 years off that, and if I make any stupid teenage-type mistakes, now you know why - I'm still getting to grips with socialising with my peers. If I err, please correct me - I do learn from my mistakes! :-}

What excites you?
Science. Science fiction. Roller derby. Women. Cats. Food. Music. Visiting places when I can (can't drive). Not necessarily in that order :-}

Where are you in this big bold world?
The Midlands, UK

What are your hobbies?
Reading, roller derby (I'm an NSO, but working on my fitness in the hope I might be able to pass the skating minimum requirements skills list), walking, improving my fitness, writing poetry (mix of comedy and non-comedy)

What brought you here?
I can't recall exactly how I found out about BFP, but having looked over the forums, it seemed such a nice community, and I thought it'd be a good extra thing to join to help me find my place in the lesbian scene. :-)

I love this!

Thank you for such a nice introduction to yourself!

One of my granddaughters was on the LA Junior Derby Dolls roller derby team for several years starting at age 8. They had teams for girls between the ages of 7-17. I loved going to her match-ups!

Roller Derby rocks, no matter the age!

She now loves acting in school musicals instead but it was a great experience for her.

Welcome to the Planet, I hope that you enjoy your time here!



(We don't have a roller skating smilie for some reason?!)

Thanks all for the welcomes!

Knight no, that is not Arabic. It comes from Marion Zimmer Bradley's Darkover novels - I am a member of a virtual Renunciate Guildhouse, and Esme nha Maire is my Renunciate name. it simply states that I, Esme, am the daughter of my mother, Maire, although I Gallicised her name to use as the last component of mine. For some years it was a lifeline to me, that online bunch of strong-minded women, and I took a form of the Oath in all seriousness and keep to it to the best of my ability, and always will.

(Chuckle) Thanks for letting me know that, Knight! Esme's a very longstanding nickname I was given, after Esme Weatherwax from the Discworld stories, in the days of Fidonet, so it's short for Esmerelda. I then used Esme as a pseudonym because of concerns over net stalking on Usenet back then, but it crept into the real world, and now I've been known socially as Esme for years, and I like it better than my original name (I very much admire Esme Weatherwax), so i am about to change my name legally to Esme.

Back when I was playing Eve Online for a few months, a couple of times guys jeered at me for one of my characters names, ie: Esme, thinking that it was a misspelt version of 'It's me', which they thought lame -to which I replied that they really ought to get out more and meet some girls, as they'd clearly not met enough to have encountered an Esmerelda before. Oddly enough they suddenly went very quiet, both times.

!

howdy! i stumbled my way here through google. i’m a baby butch i guess, almost 22, figured it out at 19. i spent all my teen years flipping between identites because nothing fit and i didn’t know what it really meant to be a butch lesbian at the time. and what a ride.

anyway, where i am right now: in college for engineering because i’m a dork who thinks calculus is fun. i had to drop out the first time around because of depression, but i’ve gotten all As since returning.

looking forward to talking to yall! good night!

Default Hi from the UK

Hey, guys! I'm technically abroad right now, but I live in the UK, so if any of you do as well, I'd love to be friends. I live in the Southeast, and I love women's culture- especially media made by lesbians and women who love women in general- as well as being outdoors. Wishing you all a good day~

Default Wenches shouldn't be underestimated

Tell us a bit about yourselves!
I'm enjoying the benefits of being over 50 (58 to be precise) including spending a week at Disneyworld for my 50th birthday. There's a freedom that comes with that age that I love. I have retired early. I'm living in a 32' motorhome and plan to travel in the US; I have not seen or spent any time in the eastern parts of the country.

What excites you?
Good conversation, scenery, nature, my extended family, challenges, and the b/f dance of course.

Where are you in this big bold world?
Home base is Albuquerque, New Mexico (USA as it states on our license plates)

What are your hobbies?
Bridge, reading and travel. I also enjoy watching professional football although I don't have a specific team I follow right now. (Thanks dad for teaching me if the offensive line stays down, it's a running play and if they stand up, it's a passing play.) I also enjoy baseball, but I prefer to see that live. (I still don't get the infield fly rule.)

What brought you here?
Google search and the need for community. I came out on-line 21 years ago and it's always been a good place to find friends. There is a dearth of B/F community where I live or perhaps more of a dearth of community altogether except around Pride and benefits.
