High School Reunion on Saturday, very nervous.

[Cindy]

Hi

The dress is gorgeous and enhances your natural beauty. Have a wonderful time. Just be the assured woman you are, relax and enjoy. I have a friend who went to her nursing reunion as her true self. Everyone was totally accepting, she had a great time.

Oh, you may want to take a stick to beat off all the guys who will be hitting on to you

Have a wonderful time and keep us all posted
Cindy

What do you mean??

As lilacwoman says, it's lovely.

But it's also completely appropriate for the situation.

You're going to meet people you last met in your teens. So, you wear something that someone of your age would think appropriate for that age. If you see what I mean.

It's bright, colourful, sexy without being in the least bit over the top.

Thank you to both of you for the warm comments,you have brightened my day.Today was the deadline to drop off the invitations at the high school.I wanted to send my mom to do it, since im on vacation from work this week.She dragged me to the high school, she said that ill feel better doing this. ::)My heart raced when I went inside, and saw who was in charge of gathering the invitations.I was terrified , it was my drinking buddy michael from high school.I was trembling as I explained to him, who I am.He was acceptive! We just got back from lunch together, had a long chat.He wants to be romantically involved with me, but I told him I need a week to think about it.There is a part of me that wants to say yes in the worst way, because I may not have seen him in over a decade, but pretty much know him inside out.But theres also a part of me thats a little freaked out about getting romantically involved with someone that we did so many male bondding activities together.Between the high school reunion and making a decision for this, I feel like Im losing my mind.

[Cindy]

Ahmmm
Has someone just realised they are female
Of course he wants into your panties. Enjoy. If you wish, but don't get pushed.  A  kiss and cuddle with no sex is very nice for girls, drives men up the wall, but lets you survey the feelings. I would suggest no sex, too easy at this point. Bad for you and bad for him.

Hugs.

Cindy, Im more concerned right now if want to get involved with him period.Would you get romantically involved, not talking about sex in general for a while.But even just kissing and cuddling, with 1 of your best man friends from back in the day? Thats all im asking.

[Cindy]

Sorry doll,
Be yourself. Don't even think about anything else. This night is to introduce YOU to the world.


Have a wonderful feminine night and enjoy.


Hugs and love

Cindy, wish I was you

May I suggest you just keep him hanging?

OK, so you were a bit worried about the school reunion. First person you meet, wow, wants to date you.

Now I'd say that is about a good an endorcement as you could expect. (My heart lept a bit when I read it. )

You could ask him to escort you. You could simply met him there. Or you could simply go and see how things pan out.

If this were me, I wouldn't agree, at this point anyway, to become too involved. Simply because you haven't met each other for a long time. You have certainly taken different paths. You have a history, however positive, it is a history.

I don't say this simply because of your change in gender. I say this because, after a time, you are different people.

I can understand his perspective. But this is a school reunion, not a reunion of two old friends. I should think there's gonna be a lot of people there, male and female who are going to be interested in you. Some may be a bit negative, but most will be positive.

Now the hard bit. How to turn down a guy without hurting his feelings?

[Angela]

No need to be sorry about anything,Im less worried about the reunion now, and more concerned about weather  I should  accept my old friend as my companion.If that makes any sense,Im just very confused right now.

Angela,
I don't see anything wrong with getting romantically involved with someone who knew you before transition. Obviously, if everything goes to plan for me, that's exactly what I'll do (stay with my wife). I will say the timing might not be that great, because if you start seeing him now, that's another variable you have to account for at the reunion. I would say see if he is ok "getting to know you again" first... If he is, and he treats you with respect, this might end up being something really cool, because you have this shared history.

Just remember that YOU are in control, sweetie. I also have to add that if I was this guy, and one of my high school friends showed up looking as spectacular as you.. Hell yes I would want to date them!

[Angela]

Spacial,I think I will tell him to escort me to the reunion.It should be a good way to judge him a little. 

[Angela]

mtfbuckeye,I want to thank you.You have been my strongest supporter here.No offence to all the other wonderful people here.I have to add yes, Ill want him to get to know me again, but the learning curve will be alot easier than with someone ive just met.Know what I mean?

[lilacwoman]

No need to be sorry about anything,Im less worried about the reunion now, and more concerned about weather  I should  accept my old friend as my companion.If that makes any sense,Im just very confused right now.

whether or not depends on what happens on the night?  he may turn out to have a long time squeeze or may dis you...but if he stays nice then try keep him as a buddy and entry into the local social scene.

[Angela]

I called him up and told him,Im willing to give him a try .I said  we are going to take it slow for the first couple weeks.He was kind of sad when I said, that after the reunion there will be no mention of things we did together or past lifes events about me.As far as Im concerned that person died years ago.Im going over his house tonight, to watch movies on his 50" home cinema.

I have a feeling about him though. Whenever I feel like this , no matter what we are talking about ,It turns out positive.Last time I had a feeling like this, it was about getting promoted at my bank , and  I did.

I'm really pleased you've come to a decision.

I'm am positive you are going to have a great time.

omg Angela I think that sounds like an amazing opportunity! I'm jealous haha

[Cruelladeville]

Nope can't realate to this one...

However only about 18months into my transition, pre my full srs....

I went back to spend an evening with some sympathetic work mates whom were aware of my journey....

But while out with them.... unbeknown to me some other workers I'd known turned up too, who were not aware of me being someone they'd once known....

I was amazed that they really didn't twig who I 'was'.... so I dare say they will not know who you are....

Peoples perceptions of you are totally different to what you might think.... so I dare say unless you choose to confess and reveal all...most will never guess...

So if your the type that might enjoy, the fun of watching their dilemma... as the light bulbs within switch on....

It could be an interesting evening....lol

But I would be wary if it was a faith based school, ultra conservative with many macho/football jock types...

Thanks, wish I could talk some more with you, but I have to get ready and look my best for tonight.I will post how our first night together went tomorrow.

[YellowDaisy]

This saturday is my class reunion,Im really dreading this.Havent seen any of my classmates in years.How will they react to my transition? Has anyone ever went to a class reunion after their transition, please post your experiences.

i just wouldn't go, but that's just me. i hope you have fun though, because you've not seen them in years, and it can be very exciting.

My first date with him last night  at his house was amazing !!!I arrived at around 9 pm.I thought we were just going to watch movies and talk.He had prepared a seafood dinner with 6 diffrent kinds of fish.He is a chef at a hotel.The funny thing is I thought I was nervous, but he seemed more than me.After we finished watching a movie, he did ask me some questions about how I came to my decision in changing my gender, and the various procedures I had done.He was very tentative and polite, a side of him thats new to me.The conversation then shifted to previous relationships, which I wish I hadnt brought up.He said he was engaged and very close to be married.But unfortunatelly, he found her cheating on him.He couldnt believe that I hadnt had any relationship, since my change.We both agreed to take it slow for a while.We both couldnt resist on having our first long kiss.Who wouldve thought Mike was such an amazing kisser?It was a new experience as a woman for sure.I feel like a 16 year old after last night.I wont be able to see him today, because he is busy preparing a huge meal for a wedding.But he promised tomorrow when he has off, he is taking me swimming. Im on cloud 9.
