Hi all,
I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello. I am an older MTF who has not transitioned. Like many ladies of my generation, I was able to compartmentalize my female self while married and raising a family and having a career.
In recent years it has become much more difficult to deny my female self. I have a psychologist. She and I have worked to the point that I must try to make a decision. Attempt to live with the current status or transition. I don't know what the future holds. Hopefully I will figure it out and not hurt my loved ones along the way.
I look forward to getting to know some of you.
All advice is appreciated.
Abby

Hi Abby, welcome from Boston! You're among friends now, get out on the boards and mingle! See you around!
Hugs, Devlyn
Umm, I see Izzy's cat but no mice. Should I make arrangements for the little wake and tiny funeral? :laugh:
Hugs, Devlyn

Hi Abby and welcome to Susan's. Am a late bloomer myself, having come out at age 56. I'm 66 now and have never been happier. My spouse of 34 years supports me fully.
