Title: Strike of good luck? I met somebody!
Post by: _Kris_ on March 29, 2008, 01:28:59 AM
Well, I am shocked--in a very good way. I've met this girl who is pansexual, completely supports my desire to transition, and is attracted to me on a romantic level. Not to mention that she is absolutely adorable and shorter than my meager 5'4'' by three inches, and we have loads in common. Of course, we're early into the talking stage, but I have a good feeling about things, anyway, and I tend to be optimistic. ;D

Wish me luck!

That's great Kris, I can virtually hear the happiness from reading your post.  :)  She's a lucky girl.

Yay for you, Kris! And for the lucky lady as well, of course!

Thanks, guys. I'm glad for the support that she gives, especially when things actually start to happen for me (like counseling, T does, etc).

well that is good news, Kris.  especially about the height.  I always forget that some of you guys are stuck with less height.

Yeah, I was always worried that I'd never find somebody who was my height or shorter. It may seem stupid, but I always feel like the protector/assertive one in a relationship, and it's hard to feel that way when most people tower over you--especially when one of those people is your mate. I know that not everyone feels that way, but it was always a complex of mine. I just feel like I should have been a lot bigger, you know?

wow, Kris... congrats. this is something i always wonder about.

Thanks, man. ^_^ You look tall for your picture. Are you shorter for an FTM, too?

Wow, so many people in the same boat. I think we're all "little guys" who pack a big punch, LoL. And, cindy, I think it's great that your height worked out so well for you. The biggest complaint that I hear from MTFs is being "too tall." You lucked out, huh? :P

Well, congrats and good luck!  :)

I'm 5'7 by the way (at least I think so I'm not sure I converted it right--it's 170 cm). I know it could have been a lot worse, but it's still kind of depressing that my little brother (3 years younger) is bigger than me by now and still growing...

My younger sister (age 16) is taller than me by an inch, and outweighs me by at least 10 pounds. That doesn't stop me from intimidating the snot out of her. She was always so girly, anyway. Gotta keep those younger siblings in line, though. ;) :P

:D I couldn't agree more, but he became really strong during that past half year... Not that long ago I pinned him to the floor and he hadn't the slightest chance--now it's the opposite way round.

"Hee, hee, hee." Well at least you sound like a typical boy. My sister was taller them as well, she was four years older  then I, but we really got along well. You live out in the country there ain't to many other play mates to play with. She did the boy stuff and I did the girls stuff and we got along quite well. Oh we also had this pact, you don't tattle on me and I won't tattle on you, and every thing worked out quite well.

Yeah, I had three siblings (2 sisters and a brother), and I was more guy-ish than all of them! :laugh: But I never really got along with any of them, except for my brother (when he would allow me to tag along with his friends).

When I was little I played a lot with my brother. We liked pretty much the same things, but we developed very differently. Nowadays we only annoy each other (in a nice brotherly way  ;))

Count yourself lucky if you still have a brother who still likes you enough to acknowledge your alive. My whole family I guess would like to think I'm dead. Well I am a friendly person and I make friends easily enough. I have always had Lot's of friends even when I first came out, especially at work. most of them were girls and that was ok with me, but the guys came around after a bit to. Well I have a good sense of humor too.

I'm sorry to hear that about your family, cindy. I honestly don't know what my family will think of me whenever I come out. Right now, they think that I'm letting my legs and armpits to go unshaved, and my eyebrows to go unplucked, because of some science experiment. ::)
Title: Re: Strike of good luck? I met somebody!
Post by: cindybc on March 31, 2008, 12:40:24 AM
"Hee, hee, hee." What kind of science experiment? I like science experiments. Just kidding. well I use to like making science experiments in the woods behind the house when I was a little kid, just about started a forest fire once.  And your parents, they went for it? Wow! I wish I had your parent for mine, "nah," just joshing. Well since they went for it, hopefully that will keep the wolves at bay until you are either ready to come out, or concoct another good one.  ;D Seriously I send prayers that all goes well for you when you do come out.

That's cool dude, as a pansexual transguy, I wish I could find the same sort of open minded partner. The only people I've met are hung up on the same question, "Which parts would you use/allow me to see during sex," to which the answer is NONE PRE OP. But they won't accept no for an answer. So ->-bleeped-<- 'em. I couldn't see my personality in a relationship anyhow...I'm far too flighty.
