Master Yoda

My partner is Walter, who is a member of this forum, and as we being dating for eight months now, I thought it would be a good idea to join.

I have to admit that he is the most amazing thing that has happened in my life; I never thought I would meet someone like him, certainly not anyone who has lit up my life like he has.  So please excuse me if an occasional post gets all ...mushy ...

One of the things I personally find hard to deal with is the prejudice that is out there.  As a well known member of the asexual community ( particularly within a certain forum), I have found a great deal of acceptance within that community; yet outside of that I have personally encountered ... well, lets just say it has been unpleasant.  And as for the argument I had with my mum about our relationship that lasted until 2am ... 

So one of the reasons for joining is to talk to other SOs, particularly other partners of FtMs, and also to gain a better insight into what he is going through.

Anyway, so much for my introductory post.  I am glad Walter found this place, and I look forward to talking more to the various peeps here in the future.

Sup Master Yoda?  :icon_wave:

I never thought I would say that  :laugh: Welcome to the forum, I'm always glad to see another accepting SO on here :) Sadly there really is some serious hate but my ex while we were together was my biggest support system so I love meeting accepting SOs. The people here are pretty awesome and I'm sure the other SO's will have some good input for you. See you around the forum

Thank you for the warm welcome.

Yup, I have to admit that Yoda is kinda  a personal hero of mine; being short for a cis-male (5'2"), it sort of fits, except for the fact I'm not green...

I am glad to hear the folks around here are so helpful, so I am looking forward to posting more in the future.

Welcome to Susan's, Master Yoda!

I too am the SO of a trans individual. My partner is a MTF who hasn't started his transition yet (he still prefers to use male pronouns). I have seen many of Walter's posts, and I would have to say that he seems like an awesome guy, and you two are lucky to have each other!

I am so glad to hear that you are happy together, and I am elated that you have decided to join our family here at Susan's! Things can be tough on both sides of the relationship (but show me a relationship that doesn't struggle over something), but this forum has helped me (and us, though my SO has yet to join here) immensely.

I am sorry to hear that you have been experiencing conflict and prejudice, people can be so hurtful, but thankfully you have found a community that is supportive and accepting. I can say that joining this site is one of the best things that I could have done for myself. There is so much to learn and people here are exceptionally kind and willing to discuss just about anything you might have a question about. Don't be shy!

I look forward to reading more from you! See you around the forum.

Hugs,
Jacquelyn

Jennie;
Thank you for your warm welcome.  My apologies for not replying sooner, but my rl can get stupidly busy at times.
I really like that quote.  To be honest, I tend to lose my focus at the moment, so it is something I should take to heart.

But end all of your sentences in verbs, you do not.  VeryGnawty admits that a great role model, the character of Yoda is.

Much truth in what you say, you do.
