For the past few years or so I have considered myself a very open-minded person who understood a lot about people. To be blunt, I have been active in the BDSM community for the past 8 years, so I have seen my fair share of fetishes and cross dressers that would make the average and vanilla person run. Up until recently, I believed cross-dressers and TG people made a choice in adulthood to change their appearances based upon a sexual desire, or just an urge if you will to dress like the opposite sex. Boy was I ever wrong about that assumption! I did not understand that perhaps some felt this way even as a child. Today, I find myself thirsty for knowledge on the truth, because I want the reality of things, and not just my own thoughts or opinions.
Secondly, everything I thought I knew regarding TG has changed, and my outlook on people and life has forever been rocked to the core. This sudden change progressed drastically for me a couple of months ago, when I met the love of my life. My love of my life turned out to be a MtF who at first was only a friend. I never expected I would fall in love with her because I consider myself to be a straight woman. It is my own understanding that I see her beauty for exactly who she is, and I do not care in the slightest if she is TG or not. I am simply in love with someone who is more than I could have ever expected or wanted to have in my life.
However, there are some issues that I have within our relationship. As it stands she lives over 600 miles away from me, and we are working hard daily to communicate effectively until we meet face-to-face. I joined this group to get to know others because I feel that if I am active within the LGB&T community, it would help me gain a better perspective on things with us, as well as provide a future support group for me for the times that may come ahead.
In closing I would like to say that as time goes on, I desire to share my issues, triumphs, and stories with everyone as it arrives. For now, I would just like to thank you all for reading in advance. I hope that by being here I can truly grow inside even more than before, which will essentially give me a better understanding in me and my partners relationship as well.
Sincerely,
Kat
