Hey

[pridedenied]

So yeah... I'm Ash. Just starting out on this path to my real self. I'm an FtM and am having a really tough time figuring all this out. I've always known that I was a guy deep down but I didn't want to admit it to myself or anyone. I need help with this. I need support if I'm gonna pull this off and really be the real me. I'm at the very beginning and I just don't really even know how to do this. How do I act like a boy when I've been faking being a girl my entire life? This is really scary and I just don't know where to begin. The thing I really need help with right know is how to show my real guy self. How do I be a man? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ash

Welcome to the site Ash 

How do I act like a boy when I've been faking being a girl my entire life?

Just be that person you've been hiding under the faking. There is a Do I Pass thread on the FTM section that you can post a pic if you're comfortable and guys can give you advice but if not still check it out because sometimes they'll give advice that will work for you. Simple things: Clothes, haircut, attitude, and CONFIDENCE. Yup I put the biggest one in bold. You are a guy and you've come to terms with that so be proud and confident about it man! See ya around the forum
