Title: Second time around
Post by: Brandii on January 05, 2016, 01:47:01 PM
Hello everyone. I used to be a member here but tried to get back into the closet. It worked pretty well for a while but slowly the idea creeps back into my reality. My marriage is not working out and will be over soon which will be good for us both. I am not working as I was before so money is tight but not completely gone. Things could be so much worse.

I have learned in the time away from here that my attitude is what makes me draw unwanted attention. When I don't care what others think about how I look, others around me don't either. I have a few years behind me so being very attractive to men is not as important to me now(but I do enjoy the thought). I am however very comfortable in my skin and have no illusions about my presentation as female. I can make it work but only when my attitude is good.

I'm not a candidate for surgery because of the money but want to get my Estrogen levels back where they should be. I have full 'a' cups already and basic feminine body shape. Everywhere but my face I look just like my mother and that's a good thing. If not for 'T' my face would look like hers too.

Thanks for letting me come back home.

You may remember the rules from before but I need to make sure you have a set of them.

Hi there! It is good to be back. Something happened today that opened my eyes a bit.

My father is 82 and fell-broken nose, several good bruises, and a bump on the forehead but other than a bad attitude he is ok. I paid him & my mom a visit to see if I could help in any way.

My mother wore a thermal shirt under a light vest and sweat pants and so did I but different colors. We were standing by a large mirror and the image is two almost identical people. It's not that we look similar to each other, but rather my hair-same color and length and acts the same way as hers. My face unfortunately is a bit elongated when compared to hers but not grotesquely so. I was amazed how we could be so much alike!

Yes, I definately do look like I wanted to look.
