Help With Writing a Lesbian Love Story?

Well, I'm a lesbian but I'm finding it difficult to write a lesbian love story. I mean, I don't know how to really begin it.
I have an idea but I just don't know how to get it out in the way I want it, or come up with names.
Help?

>"I don't know how to really begin it."

Here ya go, "In the beginning there were two lesbians that were attracted to girls, etc..."!

Well write down all the ways you might start it, and then think on them, figure out which one you'd have more fun writing, the one that just leaps out at you.
My favorite girl names have to be:
Faye, Maude, Carrie, Lucy, and Mollie

just start off by like how you would find your lesbian partner like in a normal situation with a girl that likes another girl, but that girl doesn't like girls something like that, that they are best friends and one of them makes an awkward moment and then boom their get tin in on

Describe the feelings you have- describe the main character's love for her girlfriend but the embarrassment of being a lesbian, and the one part of her that wants her and the other part that's disgusted that she likes girls. Make that your beginning, and tell the story from there.
