As for me, I have been dating the guy for quite some time, but yesterday we had a very nice dinner date but because I was still unsure about his feelings for me (he gave me very mixed signals which drove me crazy in my mind) I first asked him where we were going before revealing anything. It turned out he was just interested in friends with benefits and looking for serious commitment. And so I decided to not tell him anything about my past because we had not future together after all. I am disappointed and puzzled. Why would a guy wait for 3 months if he is just looking for sex while I was not giving him what he was looking for? Anyway, I think I will go for some wines with friends and get over it. And hopefully I will meet someone nice, one day (and will only tell when things start to get serious, like going steady) :)

Chocolate, sorry to hear that things didn't turn out as you hoped. Some guys can be like that, but there are guys out there who are not.

You were smart to wait and find out whether he was serious about you before opening up to him. It can be pretty hurtful to trust a guy enough to open up, only to have him break up with you - which would have been inevitable with him. You would have never known if his apparent "change of heart" was due to you being trans or him just not wanting to be in a serious relationship.

It's possible that he will come around again if you start drawing away. Perhaps he'll say that he's changed his mind and wants to be in a relationship. I would be careful though, I think men reach a point in their lives when they're looking for that and it is not because they have met the perfect girl - it's just that for some reason, they are ready.

You will meet a nice guy one day, just keep being true to yourself.

I'm approaching 50, and I've had a robust year when it comes to sex.  :)
What you look forward to has already come, but you do not recognize it.

Well as a straight male, who has been with females, I really would like my girl to tell me upfront. I feel a post op lady is as beautiful as anyone else, and for me it will have no baring.

Having said that, anyone interested  ;)
Cheers
Alan
