To me this is just hilarious. I've been married for 28 years. In all that time I can honestly say "I have never been hit on". I don't think anyone has even flirted with me. I have always presented as male, except the last couple years have been more androgynous. Ten days ago was my first time out presenting female. Since then I go out as often as possible. It been great!!

     Yesterday I spent the day out alone En femme, shopping our local mall. I had a wonderful time. At the end of the day I thought how uneventful the day was, no funny looks, no glares. So I was thinking "did I pass?  Or do I just live in a very tolerant area"? So on my way home I pulled into a station to get gas. There was a guy pumping gas on the other side of my pump. He finished then drove away. A moment later he drove back to the pump and tried to spark up a conversation. I stopped pumping gas and walked up close to him and looked him in the eye. I was thinking he would read me then and back off ? He didn't , just kept talking about not being from the area and visiting friends. I finally had to tell him I was just passing through and had to go. I thought that was just hilarious. I guess I passed.

    Now when I joke with my wife about never being hit on. I will have to add the tag line. "at least not by a girl".

   This just makes me laugh, Erocse 

Bet that gave your confidence a boost?

Always amassing when it happens.  Albeit it has not happened in a while, but it does happen.

Nothing better for a girl confidence. 

Something similar happened to me about 1 or 2 months after i went full time, by that time i was about 7 or 8 months HRT and went full time 6 months because i thought i looked more female then male, so decided it was time.  I met my X-wife (we are good friends) and we both went to the movies together.  We were standing in the lobby talking about this and that when this guy walks up to my X-wife and starts to flirt with her.  I think this is great because she could use this as maybe a way to nudge her to move on from our past relationship (we broke up a year before, but not due to the TS thing, a separate issue).  Well after about a minute talking the guy turns and looks at me and asks, "So why dont you introduce me to your beautiful friend here?", then proceeds to make moves on me.  Apparently guys use friends to open doors to ask another girl out, I didnt know that, and really, i think its rude, but at the time it was a shock that this guy was actually hitting on me.  To which my X-wife's only response:

"YOU DID NOT JUST HIT ON MY X-HUSBAND!?!!?"  The guy took a back, and i sarcastically smiled without saying a word.  He backed off and we went to see our movie.  I wasnt ready to date, so it kind of fixed itself, although she was distraught about it later, i mean who wouldnt be right?  but the guy just might have been into tall blond women, and she was Asian, so it may just have been a preference thing, because at the time, i thought she was way more better looking then I was.

I remember the first time I went out by myself I was hit on three times. Another time someone wanted to set up a date. Another time someone else wanted to have coffee with me. It's amazing what happens but I take it all in stride.

Oh wow. It's one thing passing as a girl, but passing as an attractive girl? Nice! 

I've had guys check me out... Have even gotten a few wolf whistles and cat calls... But yesterday was the first time I've had a guy be so adamant about wanting to talk to me

It felt good being told that I'm attractive... Especially at my age... LOL... I'll take any compliments I can get 

I'm glad you had a good experience Erocse and are able to get a laugh out it  ... The guy who hit on me yesterday makes me kinda nervous 

Gotta love it girl =)

Absolutely agree, its a great vote of confidence and more so when the guy doesn't know your trans.
I remember many years ago in a carpark in a mall with my Mother, we had just finish shopping when a trucker had blocked us in, he was unloading cargo and saw he had parked across out path, ''Im terrible sorry girls just goin'' my Mother was flattered he refer to her as a ''girl'' then he started to hit on me, ''did I buy anything nice, do you have a date later honey'' I was a little embarrassed, then he climbed into his truck, he winked at me and started blowing kisses, Mam thought it was hilarious, it was only later afterwards I did feel flattered, he saw me as an attractive woman and had no idea I was trans, welcome to womanhood, it will happen and it does happen, little strange at first, get used to it and enjoy the attention, its awesome.
