Hellllo, some of you might remember me from way back, I don't even know when the last time I posted a comment on the forum was, when I last logged in to the forums, etc. Some of you might know me from Youtube but I haven't posted anything there in forever either.
I'm just posting here to say hello. That's pretty much it. Trans is all over the news and social media...the bathroom stuff, CJ, etc. It's like you can't escape trans, lol. When I joined this site in 2007, super new and trying to figure out what my path looked like, it was a different world and that wasn't even that long ago.
I've been dating a few guys, nothing serious. I've disclosed to some guys, others I haven't, but it's not usually a big deal. I've learned to really talk about things I want and need in a relationships and with the guys I'm attracted to. OKC and POF are ok for the most part, I think I respond to 10% of the people that message me and I feel bad about that but duuuuuude, I'm not going to call you when you give me your number in the first msg and say "Hey, hit me up, you fine" lol.
School is over and I'm working on post-grad stuff. I'm still loving what I do, still loving where I live, still loving my life. Of course I have my ups and downs, like anyone else, but it's a good life and I'm thankful I am where I am. I'm getting older, that kind of stinks, lol. It's like when you hit 40 you start noticing EVERY...SINGLE....WRINKLE!!!! I'm doing yoga every day and trying to eat right, as usual.
I cracked my iphone on a jog a few months ago and still haven't replaced it yet. All the glass stays in the case so as long as I don't open it, I'm fine! Of course the only time I ever had it out of the glass I dropped it. That's the story of my life! Books...I'm working on a few. Money...I'm actually SAVING some money for the first time in my life and I'm feeling good about that! Maybe some day I'll be financially secure. I love Los Angeles. I love the summer.
I think that's it for now. I just wanted to say hey and make a post and say life is what you make it. I posted this in the post op section for a reason. It's a surgery. It's a thing. It isn't my new birthday, it isn't this huge thing that my life resolved(s) around. It's a vagina. I should have had one when I was born but whatevs. I did what I had to do. It's mine now and fits in with my life. It's like .02% of my day...except when I'm hanging out with my fellas, lol, then it's more...as it should be. You move on from it and focus on the stuff in your life that really matters. Hopefully with more insurance companies adding GCS as covered, more people will be able to have surgery. It shouldn't be something only privileged people get. Then they can move on with their lives as well...if they want it in the first place.
Be well Susan's peeps, talk to you later :) Meghan
You are a treasure, meghan!

Glad to hear things are going well. I think about you often and wonder how you're doing. I'm also happy to hear your professional aspirations are on track.
Lovely to hear from you Meghan. I'm so glad you are going well.
Love
Cindy
Glad to hear from you Meghan and that things are going well for you
I've tried a dating site to not much avail before, seems like the viable guys are too far away and most of the others are hose monsters to be avoided
Hope you can find 'Mr. Right' someday
Hugs
I just wanted to say I used to watch you on YouTube. It was really helpful. Thanks.
