Hi everyone,
I just posted on this site for the first time in hopes to strengthen my relationship with my fiancé who is FTM. I wanted to introduce myself here so that I can maybe help someone else along the way.
My name is Christine. I am an SO with an interesting background of my own..
I am not Transgendered, however, I met my fiancé because a few years back I started living androgynously and trying to decide if I was FTM or not. I had always grown up with a feeling that I should have been born male, which was confusing, but through myself into ultra feminine lifestyle once I hit high school because my body was so undeniably female. (I wore a size 34 G bra, sort of hard to bind)
After quite a few years of battling, I finally cut off all my hair, changed my clothing, and started to the best of my ability binding. I learned a lot about myself and met a lot of amazing people with a lot of amazing stories along the way. After awhile living that way, some switch flipped in me, and I felt completely female for the first time in my life. So I grew my hair out and went back to living an ultra feminine lifestyle.
However, I think my journey was meant to happen so that I could meet my wonderful fiancé. So that I could understand him on a level that someone who has never had those type of feelings themselves could not. I came here for advice on the first thing in our relationship that I couldn't understand. But, I want everyone here to know that I am a resource. That I am here to be anyones friend and confidant. And that I may be able to give some valuable input that someone who has never been down the exact path I went down can give.
I look forward to meeting you all and talking with you all
<3 Christine
