When I woke up on the morning of May 13, 2010, no one could have convinced me of where I would be almost a year later. I woke up distressed, anxious, and at an utter loss. The day before, my car had broken down beyond repair; my boss had warned me that if I did not have a car, I would not have a job; money was a problem; I found out I had a stomach hernia; and the worst part of it all was that my girlfriend had run away with her ex. All of this within 24 hours.

The hurt was so unexpected and out of my control that it spun me into a dark place. It took me months to get over it. But it was that week that The Lesbian Guru was created; I felt so lonely in the lesbian community and dumbfounded by the intricacies of being with a woman, I needed to learn more.
