Yes, and my partner is another trans girl for the last 6 years.

No. Never met any till recently.

I did twice. Not something I would like to repeat. I found that dealing with another person's dysphoria made my own worse.

I'll be honest, height plays a big role in my attraction (I don't represent all people). Most cisgender women aren't that tall, or much taller than me.... so for me to feel attraction a trans man needs to be at least 6'2 (same as a cisgender male).

So no. I don't think I ever dated a trans man.

I need the height factor, sorry.

I dated a trans-man once. Total disaster. (sorry for the Trump-pun ;) )

But seriously... I guess right now it wouldn't be that bad, but back then it was just an accumulation of my never-ending stream of problems, meeting his. It proved to be too  much.

Have not, but when I find the woman in my life it will not matter to me if she's trans or not. I quite like knowing and being around other trans people, I feel like we connect on a very different level and I love that. I have a great tolerance for other peoples problems tho, I enjoy being supportive and helpful to others and sharing in their problems is not a burden to me but a joy.. So if a trans woman could accept all of my emotional shakiness I could certainly accept hers :) .

Lots of trans people dont want to date another trans, and thats fine I suppose. Can't quite relate, but I think I understand.

I'm married and my wife is sticking by my side. Without her though, I would probably date a trans woman

No... but I've had trysts with a couple.  [emoji6]

But I would.

Had a 2 trans girlfriends, the last one was mad as a bag of badgers.

Haven't. If something, universe forbid, ever happen to my partner and I were alone again a trans person would be my first and probably my only choice.

Not that I know of, but my supervisor transitioned m2f about 12 years before me. She had no idea that I had the same problem.

Less of a relationship and more of an extended sexual fling that involved going to the movies and dinner a few times, but yes.  It was fun (the sex was great), but really kicked me in the ding ding dysphoria wise due to jealousy and I was kind of glad when she ended up moving away.

I haven't. I was sort of friends with another transgender person who asked me out, but I didn't like her enough to start dating. It just got weird after that and we eventually stopped talking.

I have been with a few MTFs, including the love of my life I am currently with, and tbh I can't really say that it was any different than dating a ciswoman, my relationships even had the exact same sort of problems. I haven't been with a transman to my knowledge, but I wouldn't be with any man in a relationship in the future, trans or cis, I just don't connect romantically with men.

Have I ever dated another transgender girl?  Well, sort of and I feel terrible about what happened. To this day, I hope and wish the opportunity to apologize presents itself so I can explain myself. When I was going through my divorce from my husband and we were separated, I somehow ended up in an online support group. There I met one of the ops and somehow we hit it off so well. Next thing I know, she had flown across the country to meet in person. When I met her at the airport, she was in 'man' mode and imprinted on my brain as man -- and a wow looking man to boot! Super tall blond, blue eyes, body, etc. etc...   So yes, it was easy to hug and hug and quick kiss. My gosh, I feel so bad that my mind could not wrap around how he was going to be 'her'.  But 'her' she was and I took her up to the mountains after she got in 'female' mode. I know in my heart its what she wanted to be, but unbeknownst to her -- in my heart, I wanted a male. I did not know how to tell her without hurting her feelings because it was so obvious she was head over heels with me. Even wanted to sell her company so we could retire young. I'm just not attracted to females in a sexual way other than as sisters. After she flew back to the east coast, I met my husband and love of my life. I so wanted to tell her everything like a girlfriend, but I knew it would hurt her because of how she felt towards me. As her surprise to me, she flew back to see me again and could not find me (I had gone on a week long excursion with my now hubby). She ended up at one of the nightclubs where a friend of mine worked and was told I was off with my fiancée. UGH... I could scream after I found out.  I did not want to hurt her. I wanted to tell her in my own time, but fate revealed it all. That following Monday, I got a phone call from her -- screaming at me and I could hear the hurt through the crying. She hung up and I have never heard from her since. To this day, I wish I could apologize and ask for forgiveness for my idiocy. I hope she stuck to her guns and transitioned physically and completely. She was and is still, I'm certain, a beautiful human being.

Apologies for the long diatribe. Maybe she'll read this post.

I worked with an FTM for a couple of years and had fantasies , but never dated

I'm a non-binary (bi-gender) married to an MtF. I didn't know he was trans until a decade into our marriage, and I didn't know I was non-binary until just a few months ago (he had a clue though, for 20 years he kept asking if maybe I was FtM, repressed), but it's been... interesting.

Yeah, both of us being trans is an issue, especially because his own transition is one of my dysphoria triggers.

(I am not misgendering my husband. It is our agreement that in our marriage, I will always be she, and he will always be he.)

yes, and it helped me realize I'm trans

I can't say I have, but even though I'm bisexual I do have a preference for men. Being 6 ft 1 means that I would typically be considered the "dominant" partner in the relationship, which is something I don't like at all.

oh no that doesn't count. Dominant or submissive, it's all in your head :)
