Title: Newbie
Post by: Just Shelly on November 28, 2010, 10:52:06 PM
Hi,
I am new to Susan's but not new to Trans Forums or for the fact of being Trans.

I have been on HRT for over a year now and I'm in my early 40's  :(.

I am divorced and share custody with three wonderful children. I am not out yet to them or to anyone for that matter ;) Although it is getting harder to hide both physically and emotionally.

I am here to provide /receive guidance, support and hopfully friendship.

Its a lonely road I travel being Trans.

Best Wishes
Shelly

Thanks Janet
From what I have been able to see so far, I figured you would be the welcome committee :D.

I am a member on another Forum, I will not mention it here. I have no problem with the other forum, it just seems a bit clique. I am sure all forums get to that point at one time.

I am anxious to read the guidelines and hopfully make a few more posts, so I can have some sort of an avatar. :D

I am sure we will communicate again soon.

Thanks, again
Shelly

Maybe it won't be so lonely now that you have gained a second family on here :)

Hello Shelly,
It is so good to meet you.
Whenever you feel lonely just come to Susan's and post or chat.
Before long you will know your not alone. I have been so helped by people here at Susan's.
Because some here have gone through similar experiences and are more than willing to share are thought, opinions and a caring spirit.
Welcome Sis to Susan's
:)
