Hi all. My (new) name is Aeron. I'm 26 years old and I'm a mostly gay transguy. I've known my body didn't quite fit right for 10-11 years now.
I have PTSD from an abusive childhood. I tried to dress for my correct gender for a while in high school but it became unsafe to do so. I went back in the closet and stayed there due to to multiple mental health issues and a negative environment.
Now I'm back out. I feel like a weight has been lifted off of me, like my skin fits a little better now :). I've been engaged to a great guy for over a year now. I didn't come out to him so much as he put the pieces together. Luckily he is somewhat bi, and after I confirmed that yes, I am a dude, he hugged me and said he'd be gay for me and has been wonderful XD. I know this is rare from my intensive googling, and I have no idea where to go for relationship advice, so if anyone has any, throw a dude a bone here, haha.
Anyway I'm really glad I found this site. It seems very inclusive and friendly and I hope to make some friends ^_^

Hi, Aeron. I don't have any relationship advice, as my partner broke up with me a few months after I started T. He has absolutely no interest in men, but we are pretty good friends.
I'm sure that if you hang around the boards, you will find guys who have more useful things to say...
