Introducing myself

[annie.rushden]

I am very happily married to a MtF TS soulmate. She is in transition now. The first 5 years of marriage (with her in the closet) were a bit rough. She came out to me just over a year ago and today our marriage is stronger than ever and filled with joy.

There is a lot to deal with, sure, being the wife of a TS... but I wouldn't trade this for anything. I have my soulmate here and happy, finally. I keep a blog at http://annierushden.blogspot.com is anyone would like to read it. I talk about the issues that face us as a couple in transition. It's a fairly upbeat place to visit

So, hiya everyone!

Welcome to Susan's!

I am a mtf in transition now for the last 2 1/4 yrs, and happily married, still to the amazingly wonderful woman I married 3 decades ago.  Although a number of people here would suggest I am my wife's 'girlfriend', nothing could be further from the truth.  Truth is......I am still the same person inside I always was.  The person she married is still in there, smiling through a somewhat milder, softer face.  We have a better relationship than any other couple I know, ts or not.
Our lovelife is private, but I will assure you, is more joyful and enjoyable than ever.  It would be helpful if more people would relate their positive stories of marriage survival during and after transition.

Hi Annie! And welcome! It's nice to have another couple who can adapt to transition and not just survive but flourish. We'll look forward to hearing from you.

So, hiya everyone!

I both commend you and envy you, Annie; I lost my best friend secondary to my TS.

Even so, I so wish that she had not had to suffer as she did through it all, but both God and I will continue to 'be there' for her.
