I have created the above Poll to look at the situation of how we experience transition in the Pre Op state. For myself I have transitioned twice in my life (I am in the second attempt) and in my first transition stages I went through the breakup of a common law partnership with mylong term Girlfriend and then lived for 4 years in a sort of limbo, then met and fell in love with another woman, getting married and subsequently after 8 years of marriage, when the dysphoria just got to much, eventually breaking down and telling her that whilst I absolutely adored her, I was incapable of being the alpha male in the relationship and wanted to transition to a female. Like the first relationship, this led to a break up and eventual separation and divorce. I met her a few times afterwards during my first transition period, it in a fairly androgynous state and she commented then how beautiful I looked and how my curves were showing, but that she would not have wanted a lesbian relationship with me.
