hey, i made an account here a few days ago but it came to my attention that i havent introduced myself. lol idk if you guys have a secret ritual for new initiates or anything but srsly im okay with hugs. ^-^
anyway im from this little place at the top of the world called Canada. its actually hotter than you think it is, i almost cooked myself in the car today :/ ummmm so yeah, i think i may possibly be trans MtF. i find the idea of being a women, just wonderful. its been on my mind a lot lately and i want to see a therapist and get some advice or counseling. right now i dont feel like a guy and i dont feel like a girl either. it would be nice to be something. ive always felt different from the other guys and it bugged me ill be honest. ive been told i have more of a feminine personality from my gf and i guess thats when i actually started thinking about it.
my gf actually suggested i find a website with other trans people that i could relate to and get advice from so i did. initially i was at a canadian site but an amazing and beautiful friends *cough* Ellie *cough* pointed me here. :P
idk what else i should say about me. do you guys share ages? im 18 currently but ill get older lol. ummmm what else? i can be chatty sometimes and if im around good people i can talk for hours so srsly, if you dont want me to waste your time, dont encourage me. keep it short. and my favorite dessert is apple pie. :P so good
(lol camp introductions eh? they stick with you sometimes)
oh also, you can call me Kirsten, Kay, DelKay what ever. its all the same to me. :)

Welcome to Susans. Your narrative is quite similar to that of many of us. There is plenty of information here on current and previous threads as well as many friendly folk who are good at listening, sharing experience, giving advice and providing support. All in all a very cool place. It takes time to determine your identity. It really is a journey and whether you identify as F and transition MTF or find a different reality then the journey, the self discovery, the acceptance and the authentic expression of Kay takes time, a good gender therapist, plenty of work and if appropriate, a good endo.
I am glad that you could join us.
Safe travels

thanks Aisla :') its really nice to be here.
im pretty nervous about the journey, i dont think my family will take it well at all and i feel really discouraged because they will try and talk me out of it. and i suck at arguing so what ever they say, ill start to believe. its happened before and its usually why im hesitant to give out my opinions.
i see my family as the biggest hurdle and it feels like i have to fake my death if i want to become who i want to be.
Kay
I hope that the faked death is unnecessary :). As you become more comfortable and more understanding of yourself, you will become more confident and there are many here who can share their experience in dealing with difficult family situations. They often work out surprisingly well, even moving away for a while to College or to a new community can give you the space to find and to express yourself. Don't over think this, take your time, one step and then another is all that is required

oh lordy im the queen/kin/whatever at over thinking things. :/
sometimes i do get carried away and yeah faking my death would be a bit over dramatic... i suppose.
maybe breaking the news to them when i go away to uni is best?

Hi Kay, welcome :)
Hope you find some answers (and more questions! >:-)) here, it'll be a long journey, take your time and dont force things... .Youre 18! so plenty of time (I just turned 30 lol ughh)
Your gf sounds like a great partner, did she bring it up as a 'shock' or was it a gradual thing?
Hi DK!
I see you made it :) Secret ritual for new initiates... hmmm, around the block on a long board?
Welcome to Susan's, DelKay, it's a lively place, I know you are going to thrive here. I'm looking forward to your posts.
(((hugs)))
hope your cough clears up ;)

:) when i found out my gf was trans, it didnt bug me much. it was still kinda uncharted territory though. i thought i was straight and identified as male back then. i acctually told her im okay with being the boyfriend to any natural born girl, which sounds discriminatory but thats just what i was into. :3 everyones a bit picky when it comes to sexual prefrences. but i took some time to think to myself and realized that i didnt see her as a guy. id known her the entire time as a girl and even after i found out, i still saw her as a girl. plus i still liked her alot and i didnt want to lose her. there wasnt really anything holding me back from loving her after i gave it some thought and she has actually helped me discover so much about myself. i feel like back then, i was just a shadow of who i am now. shes really brought my world to life. n,n love yew baby!
