hello,

im a 21 years old female in a relationship with a FTM (he hasn't started hormone  therapy), we have been dating for 8 months and i only recently found out about a month ago. we are staying together bec i love him very much, and will stay by his side through this process. i was the only person he has ever told. more people know now but this us both getting used to people knowing and the challenges we are both going to go through together and the challenges we are going to go through alone, i thought it would, be a good idea to find people i could talk to about what im going through. no body i normally talk to understands what we as a couple are going through.

so hello also i you need to talk im a great listener, my ears are always open.

Welcome to the site, lightningeyes91.

Hi there lightningeyes.  I love that screen name.

Please make yourself known in our "Significant Others" forum.

Perhaps your boyfriend would like some of the helpful topics in the "FtM Talk" forum.  Check it out!

Hi and welcome.  I have a special place in my heart for partners who can see that the soul doesn't change just because the body does.  Hug.

Karen.

thanks Jamie, i chose it because my boyfriend said, "when i look into your eyes it looks like theirs lightning in them". i dont see it but i dont think i ever will. lol

and thank to you to Karen, my boyfriend was very afraid of what i was going to say when he told me, but was shocked to hear, "i love you for you, not the body you have." all he could do was cry. nothing in our relationship has changed besides the name i call him. i wish more people could see that.
