Just curious.. how many ex-es did you have before start transitioning? was it boy or girl or both?
did you enjoy the relationship or it's just a camouflage for you?

me? i had 12 ex-gf, the longest relationship was 8 months and the shortest was 2 weeks.
for me i was trying to be a real man, didn't work though -_-" and i think i make out with a boy once

I have 1 ex-gf from back when I was 19 or so. After that I lived in complete celibacy until I transitioned at 29. During that time I tried to force myself to seek out relationships with women, but I just couldn't do it. Mainly I tried because I was so ashamed being the only one that never ever seemed to have any sort of relationship. I was afraid of what friends and family were thinking of me. At 28 I nearly succeeded but realized the only thing I felt was jealousy and wanting to be her. I enjoyed her company as a friend but I felt no attraction what so ever, and when I came to this realization I knew that I would never ever be able to function as a man and I decided to transition.

I can't even remember how many there have been, but like you they all failed because I tried to be the man they wanted me to be and couldn't pull it off. I was miserable and so were they. I even tried to find a Domme as a submissive, but that wasn't me. I did date both men and women, but mostly women, and even had a few marriages. Nothing that lasted more than five years though.

just two, years and years ago.

They were the ones that ended things, can't say I blame them either. They both knew about my "issues."

Define ex. I only had close friendships with women and perhaps one guy. All were only ever platonic relationships, to their disappointment, of course. The idea of intercourse with my gross body part with an even more gross female counterpart was kind of yuck.

I have four ex's but most of the relationships were short except for one who I was engaged too. I had sex with five women. I also had a sorta BF and I had sex with one man.

My love life now with my BF (even though it is an openish relationship) is leagues better and feels so right. Nothing has ever felt so right.

At 22, I've had no partners or relationships and I'm not too bothered about it. I am attracted to women, but that doesn't necessarily mean I should have a boy/girlfriend.

I did have one that nearly turned into a relationship during my time at uni who I really liked but that REALLY went wrong.

Her loss though!  :)

I had two girls that I liked back in high school, but we never really got past talking, and I never officially went out with either of them.

At 27, I've only ever had one official relationship. I met her after my 2nd year of college in 2006, and the two of us were together for 6 1/2 years.

Honestly, I don't have any complaints. We were REALLY close. For years, I thought that I was going to marry her, I had this perfect little vision all planned out. But it didn't work out. Some time around last November, I started getting wrapped up in gender issues again, she wanted to go do things, she wanted me to be more spontaneous and romantic, but I couldn't do it. I didn't have it in me. We broke up on good terms, are still best friends, and hell, we're actually still living together.

Side note: we never "did it." And honestly, I'm rather happy, because it means that I never did it with anyone as a guy. So my first ever time doing it, it will probably be post-op. I don't know why that's validating in a way...

I'm really not too happy alone, though. My lack of relationships over the course of my adult life has been a constant source of sadness. I love being in relationships. I love having someone to snuggle up to at the end of the night, and I really do want to have a family some day, even though I'm going to have to adopt now, and even though I no longer have any clue what the hell my sexual orientation is.

Three ex wives.  The last one was 19 years long.  And she knew that I had GID.

I had one ex, in college. We were quite similar - too much for her tastes.

I've had about 7 or 8 ex-girlfriends as a teenager. I did enjoy the relationships physically but not so much emotionally. :-\

Since then, I've been in a relationship with a hetero cis female for 16 years (married for 14 years) and only started transition this year and we're going to try to stay together, so no more exes to add atm. ;)

I never got to the point of relationship with a women because I hated it. I was mostly doing the dating thing because I was trying to look "normal" to friends and family. Never even had sex because the thought of having sex as a man was a total turn off for me.

Using the wrong pronoun means 'I don't recognize you as who you are.' It means 'I think you're confused, delusional, or mentally I'll.'. It means 'you're not important enough for me to acknowledge your struggle.'"
