How are you doing today? I'm new to the forum and I'd love to get to know everyone. I'm a very social person, I love getting to know new people and making new friends.
My name is Andrew and I'm 21 years old. I live in Dallas, Texas and I'm a trans man. I'm starting to come into myself and accepting how much things will change and how somethings will not as I begin HRT in March. I finally accepted the fact that I was trans 3 years ago. I thought it'd be so hard to transition and honestly I felt like I would go to my grave with this secret.. but as soon as I came out I noticed so many others coming out as trans as well and how much support there is out there for us. I'm in a good place right now but I do realize that although HRT will make me happy.. it is also a big decision and so my girlfriend and I have both discussed that I need to reach out, make friends and talk things out with people. So I found this forum.. I"m here to hopefully make new friends and take in some advice from those who will give it.
If you stuck around to read this, thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day. :)

A big warm welcome to the family Andrew! :) I am your sister from across the Red River, you know, one of those Oklahoma State University Cowgirls! I am so glad you have joined the family now and I know it will be everything you were hoping for. This is the most caring, compassionate places I have ever been. Our moderators do an excellent job of keeping the predators away and peace in the family. Feel free to rant, vent, share good news or find a shoulder if you need it. Before transition started I was very quiet, now I am a regular chatterbox, so when you get 15 postings feel free to PM me anytime at all. Here is a BIG HUG ( :icon_hug:) to welcome you and make you feel right at home! :)
Welcome Andrew. I used to live in Dallas, but southern California is home.
Thanks for the warm welcome :) I didn't expect to get that many replies. It's nice to come home from work have so many positive messages on here.
