ill probably be getting on T rather soon, and im in a very serious relationship with my girlfriend, shes actually my fiancee and she is the biggest support i have and i know shell love me either way. however, does anyone have experience with this? i know it will be difficult, and im going to go on a low dose, but shes kinda worried about it. not a lot, but just has concerns, as i do.
did the changes affect your relationship bad?
I've been with my GF for almost 6 years now, and I've been on T for 3months, so far she's been cool with it - she even gives me my shots :) she was worried for some reason the T would make me gay (lol) but other than that our relationship is better because i'm less stressed, but in every other aspect its been exactly the same. :D
No, it didn't adversely affect the relationship I was in.
I'm no longer in it but for other reasons.
It actually made things a lot easier since I was much more content w/my life.
I've been with my fiancee for 4 1/2 years now. I started T 10 months ago at a 1/2 dose and she was expecting things to get better with me, but unfortunately I've become a jerk apparently. I can't see it, but she does and while we are managing to work through it, it affects us every now and then in a serious way. So, it depends on you really. Always talk and it'll help things to go smoother with you both being on the same page.
My partner broke up with me because of the transition.
If she is serious about being your biggest supporter then it should be fine mate, my gf was the same and it is turning out fine atm :) hope its the same for you
My wife was never concerned about whether or not T would "change" me, but some of her co-workers had expressed concerns. As hurts2sayshalom said, my wife appreciates the changes that T has brought - my emotions are levelled out, I am more confident and of course the fun of looking for physical changes together :) Though I don't know what your relationship is like or how your partner sees you - I know some guys whose lesbian partners had issues with the T changes. My wife is straight cisfemale - I don't know if this makes any difference or not, though.
I have been with my partner and husband for about 10 years, and we have never had problems with T. I have been on for about 3 months, and before I started I think he was more excited than I was. I swear Joe nearly cried when I got my first shot. He as worried about health things, sure, but not about me changing as a person. He told me the other night that I am a better partner for it. He is in a different country, and I am leaving on Thursday morning to move over, and honestly, I have nothing but excitement and so does he. He is excited to be seen as the gay male couple that we are.
