The Break Up Break Down

Show Notes

This Episode Originally Aired in 2023 - S3E9 was all about exploring your sexuality as an adult. Lexi joins Abby to talk about how similar her own coming out journey was to this week's main episode's guest. She talks about how she dated only guys until college and the experience that made her decide she'd prefer to date women. We also get into coming out to friends and family and how difficult it can be when they don't take it well. - Follow the podcast - Abby's IG: https://www.instagram.com/abbymariemurphy/ - Abby's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theabbymurphy/ - The Break Up Break Down on IG: https://www.instagram.com/breakupbreakdownpodcast/ - Submit a break up story/couple: https://forms.gle/ATdabGFwyy7tEx3W8 - Submit Feedback: https://forms.gle/jZcG5YPcBqPyNxEz9 - Timestamps: - (00:00): General reaction to S3E9 - (02:21): Lexi talks about dating women for the first time - (08:31): The people in Lexi's life who questioned her coming out - (11:54): How to trust a new partner after getting cheated on - (13:29): Lexi's favorite part of dating men vs. dating women - (15:26): Keeping things from relationships - (18:02): Lexi's advice for people entering their first queer relationship Hosted on Acast.
