Gender Identity vs. Sexual Orientation and it's relationship to Dating

[Kristopher]

He says he's attracted to women, and I don't know if he'll ever see me as one. The fact that I'm non-op doesn't help too much, either.... I agree that I need to build some self-esteem before dating. I've always been my worst critic.

Maybe you should wait until you are father along in your transition where you are not only more comfortable with yourself, but where you give off a more female vibe to others and are perceived as so...and above all, remember the evil demon knows as 'PATIENCE' is indeed a virtue.

I'm waiting until I pass more often than not, and am then going to make a move on my crush. As is now, we're just friends, but he doesnt know that I am crushing on him. Hopefully I'll strike his fancy and he'll be cool, as we get a long great.
