Aw, congratulations! That's a big deal, and a great thing! :)

You know, there aren't really things anyone does differently in queer relationships. All the same stuff people do to have happy, healthy, mutually beneficial relationships apply to queer relationships. Would you like me to hook you up with some content about healthy relationships and dating?

Too, if you lead with the happyhappyjoyjoy you have going on now, that's always a super big player in relationships that everyone in them enjoys. :D

Congrats! I'm bi (well bi curious anyway). I've been with another girl before and I'll admit it was pretty fun. I have a boyfriend now, and I kinda figured at one point that he'd think I was weird when I told him about it, but he didn't have any problem at all, and said it's great that I'm comfortable. Heather said what I would've said: other than the fact that it's a same sex relationship, there's nothing else different. It's still a relationship. Be yourself and have fun! It's not like you can't do certain relationship-y things. I've been in one same sex relationship before, and it went well, so feel free to ask if you want any other help :) Good luck :)
