I've been out and living as a man for ten years, sometimes I still wonder if maybe I really AM crazy or just a tomboy because I don't perfectly fit into the box that society has decided says if you're a "real man" or not.

But there are tons of cis men that don't fit into that box either, and I try my best to remember that when those thoughts start to surface.

For me, its the opposite. 

I usually feel "OMG, I'm actually ALLOWED to be a man now!!!  HUZZAH!" \(^_^)/

I felt like I was faking when I tried to be female.  I faked it pretty well for most of my life, but no more!

Felt more like I was faking it before I realized I was trans. As for how I dress I feel like I'm faking it every time I wear something new - in the world of looks fake it till you make it is the norm.
So in order to be honest with my mind and actions I have to fake appearance...... Am I even faking at that point? Thats how I see it.

I cannot wear a dress or skirt. They both make me look like an ugly old dude in a dress. If I looked feminine in either, I would wear them. I can handle the 'it looks good, just odd or different' because I'm not used to wearing the style. Dresses and skirts just look wrong.

No, not faking.

Coming to terms finally, with what is

To be honest I frequently feel like I'm faking it. It's one of the main reasons I haven't transitioned yet.

I think a lot of it is just self doubt - we all want to be the most attractive version of ourselves that we can be, and when that version of ourselves is not the gender we would like it can be confusing. That's the case for me at least

Yes I always felt fake not so much now, But before when I was mostly male because I never fully was, I felt like I was a fake male I felt like I was lying to myself as well as the world, Now it is different it is why did I fake a life before why did I wait so long to be real was I happy before, No. I was scared and this is what plays in my head.
