Title: Old Friend, New Life
Post by: LorenzRainbird on August 03, 2017, 05:55:54 AM
Hello All!

I'm a previous member of the site, and completely lost all my login data!

Previously LoriLorenz, I have gone over to LorenzRainbird.

Since you last saw hide or hair of me, I have done a LOT. I got engaged (2 years ago), and dumped (very recently - ouch). I have legally changed my name, and have been on testosterone for just over 26 months (yes I meantlly counted).

I am now almost a dead ringer for Shaggy from Scooby Doo, except Shags was TALL and I am not so much. I'm skinny, and wirey, but in a small 5'2" frame that's got a lot of physical baggage, but I'm here and better than ever.

Hi LorenzRainbird, and re-welcome!

Sorry to hear you had a relationship recently end, that is never easy.  Sounds like you have been up to a lot of great things, making progress on your goals.  I wish you the best.

I was just looking into some of the legal name change process yesterday.  Depends where you live and where you were born.  Although it's easier than the past there are still several ridiculous catch-22 steps I imagine you had to deal with, which I will also be heading into.

See you around!

Kendra

Welcome!!!  I used to look like Shaggy, which I always thought was kind of cool.

What kinds of things are you hoping to get out of your time here?  If it's friendship (and we could always use more friends), then you've made a good first step.  Good luck to you here, and if you ever feel like you need to talk to someone don't hesitate to pm me or something.

Love, Ashley
