It took Tess 30+ years to realize she was a lesbian. When she finally came out of the closet, she understandably felt overwhelmed and inexperienced, like she had a lot of ‘catching up to do’, so to speak. And so in an effort to make like-minded friends, she joined an online community of local gay women, becoming fast friends with one of them in particular. But when Tess fell in love with another woman for the first time, this new friend revealed herself to be less of a ‘friend’ and more of a ‘one-woman terrorization campaign’— the details of which make Matt shout ‘what the F#%K?!’ many times during Tess’s story. See if her story makes you do the same!
