Hello, as you can see, online I go by Fox. I am 22 years old and have recently come to terms with being trans. I was born male, finally got the courage to start identifying as female.

I haven't yet seen a therapist who specializes in this, but I will soon. Meanwhile I am trying to learn how to deal with the first set of issues that comes from it all... one being that my boyfriend keeps calling me "he". He is a wonderful person, he doesn't mean to do it, and he's completely supportive, but by force of habit he keeps doing it. I have to correct over and over and every time it makes me want to crawl in a hole and die...

Anyway, I am eager to learn from those with experience how to get through all these steps. I really appreciate there is a resource like this.

Thank you for reading

Hi Fox,

Welcome to Susan's! It is really good to have you here with us.

You are doing the right thing by seeking a therapist as the first step.
Regarding misgendering, I know it can be painful to hear especially when it comes from a loved one, but if it is just force of habit then you should give your boyfriend time to adjust to it. Talk to him frankly, tell him how you feel when you are misgendered and he may realize how important it is for you, but then try to fix a timeline which works for both of you by when he should get used to the right pronouns.
Hope that helps.

Look forward to seeing you around,

Take care
Cindy
