Title: Hey all
Post by: ABrandNewJacinta on March 06, 2018, 10:23:04 PM
Hey everyone

So I just joined this week and thought I'd say hey.

A little background about myself, I'm a muscular powerlifter in an all guy trade and a couple of weeks ago I came out to my wife as trans. She's been my amazing rock of support with this. She's been helping understand that this isn't a bad thing and helping me with my fears. I really don't know where I'd be without her. So I dress as a female basically full time while at home now which has been a massive relief seeings I've had a lot of anxiety tied in with dressing female in front of the kids.
I have an appointment with the GP next Tuesday to get the ball rolling, I'm excited as and yet terrified.

Anyway nice to meet you all

Jacinta

Hi Jacinta! Your awesome wife already introduced herself (Dashbe87) and we've been hoping you'd check in soon. I'm 59 years old, MtF, and also have a wonderfully supportive spouse. Welcome to the warmest, safest place on the web for those of us transitioning!

Hi Jacinta,

Welcome! I hope your visit to your GP goes well. Hopefully in time and as you feel comfortable, you can share part of your experience with us. Cute name btw.

Hi Jacinta, welcome to Susan's Place !  It's great you have your wife's support.  If you have any tips that can possibly help others in their own desires to keep their marriage on a more stable footing, I'm sure they would be appreciated.  Good luck at the doctors!

Smiles, Jessica

Hello Jacinta and WELCOME to Susan's Place.  You will find this a safe and friendly place to share with others about your transition and to read about and learn from others regarding their transitions and their trials, tribulations, and successes in their transition journey.  You will find friendly support for your transition issues from those that have been through it already. You might even find that you will make some new friends here. 
Please come in and get involved at your own pace. 
Again, Welcome.

Oh wow, thanks everyone for such a warm welcome. I kinda wasn't expecting that.
Shows I'm in the right place, I haven't came out to anyone else yet so it's nice to have people to chat with.
