I knew from the start of my relationship with Bunny that they wore women's clothing and often felt feminine, this didn't bother me in the slightest since I'm gender fluid and think it is silly to gender fabric, we have now talked more on it and Bunny has decided to transition.
I use neutral pronouns when talking about them because they haven't expressed wanting to have feminine ones used yet or male ones not used and I thought it would be more respectful of them when talking to others. When the time comes that they want to make the switch to feminine ones I will gladly use them!

A little bit about us: Bunny is 25, bisexual, mtf, pre HRT but preparing for it! I'm 18, demisexual, dfab and gender fluid.

Right now Bunny and I are working on ways to help make them more comfortable with their feminine self. Physical things like helping them remove the body hair they dislike so much, looking at cute clothes online together, helping with styling wigs (thank you cosplay), me being more dominant with them sexually, and (we haven't done this yet since I am so much lighter than they are) helping them learn makeup. In addition to being open to anything they would want to express and share (in general or regarding the transition) and other things that just come with being open and supporting in your relationship. I really just want to help support them and for them to be happy no matter what they decide!

How else can I support them?
What ways would you want to be supported?
Anything else that helped you feel more feminine during your early transition?

AAAW YOu are so cute :3 well you can call her with female pronouns and if you make a mistake it's ok maybe? But it depends on her, so I guess that she would like that... Then I think you are doing everything right, but eveyone's transition is kind of unique so you should ask her the most part... I guess she knows where she wants to end with this... And you should try to support her even if she decide to do SRS for example! But I think that you will

Together we just call one another by petnames and they have expressed not wanting to be called by feminine pronouns just yet so we are using neutral ones for now. We have an open dialogue about what they want with my support and no matter what they decide to do with their body I will support them. I posted asking for other's input just to see how it is for them and their transition. 

I've always liked the idea of buying my gf flowers or gifts. I enjoy surprising her with little things or toys randomly, and I think it might help her to know that I see her as female. Another thing she likes is when I take over the cuddling, let her just lay there and be fawned over, gentle touches and kisses. Oooh and I once took her to a trans friendly hair place over here and they fixed up her hair so nicely and did her eyebrows- she loved the experience so much! Everyone was SO nice and friendly and she looked SO great It's so much fun <3 and welcome to susans

Welcome to the board. My wife is also MTF and the best way you can support them is to listen to them. You're doing all the right things so far, but ultimately it's up to them on what would be best for them. Just keep those lines of communication open as well as your mind and you guys are going to do great.

Also, if you can't show her how to do her make up Youtube and pinterest are great resources. Lucky for us, we are the same shade of pasty white and I was able to help with a lot... but I've still learned plenty.
