So this is like. Awkward. ;;

I am confused about this.

So I have this mega crush on my friend Tokio, (yes, it is her real name), and she is an MTF. She is about a year younger than me, and I am head over heels before. I see her as - well I don't know. I don't know what she looked like as a guy, since she went to my old school as a girl. I am wondering if this makes me Bi, or what. Also, how do I let her know I like her? I feel like a girl for asking this. xD But I'm confused. :/ Trust me, I have been stressing over this since about August '10 when school began.
Help me?
D:


Edit: Basically, how do guys tell girls they like them? Are they just like, "Hey, you're hot." or something like that? Lmfao. I tend to observe my males from movies...

She identifies as female, you identify as male.

Male + Female = Heterosexual.

I have no idea how you could let her know you like her besides the obvious flirting, etc.

But I am also into guys, so that means I am bisexual.
And I know what she identifies as.
xP

Uh, no! If I was transitioning right now, I'd snap at the notion that it was apparently gay to be with me.

Neways, sure tell her. Being trans herself, she'll probably be more open to the idea of dating a transsexual. Worth a shot?

Huh? O_O

That's what were talking about right? Mtf's and bisexuality?

If I'm not mistaken, Vince is into guys, and was surprised to find himself attracted to Tokio, who is a woman.


Don't stress about labels for sexuality. You like who you like. This could "mean" you are homoflexible, bisexual, pansexual etc. Really, labels are just for letting other people know, not for knowing yourself. No need to get stuck in categories if they don't fit.

As for letting her know: carrier pigeon. Gets all the ladies [or it is 2 AM]

Lmao, Mikah could say it better than myself. D:

And that makes sense. I was just confused, haha. x: I won't stress about labels for sexuality. I guess its not a big deal to say, I'm Gay, I'm Bi, I'm whatever. I guess if people ask, I'll just tell them, "I am me."

Oh wow, embarrassing >.<

my girlfreind is m2f and i just told her i liked her and everything went from there.dont be afraid to get in there boy!!!Tokio is such a cute name too...

Hmm. I'll tell her tomorrow. xD

And, yes, it is. Haha. xD Tokio Tokio Tokio.

so how did it go???

I don't know. I texted her, but she hasn't replied. Haha. I can't see her in person at the moment.

awww, well tell us when you get some news!

I will. (: She has been busy with her fashion/make-up business.

Lol, carrier pigeons.

Vince, Mikah's absolutely right, the labels are more for other peoples' sake then our own. If it makes you feel less alone, I'm in a similar situation myself right now, I'm recently realizing that I've lost all attraction and interest in girls. I'm dating a guy for the first time in my life right now, and it's really awkward, but wonderful at the same time.

If it feels right, just go for it. Better to try something and know it's not right for you than to spend the rest of your life wondering.

I too am wondering how to let a woman know I'm interested...lately I've posted an ad on craigslist seeking men because I fear being a let down for women. I lack a penis for straight women, I'm not a woman for a lesbian, and most bisexual women I know I'm just uncomfortable around for some bizarre reason. *Sigh*

But anyway let us know what she has to say! I've heard of successful trans pairings in the past and I don't see why it'd be an issue. If she's not into you, at least you'll know so you can move on and still be friends with her, yknow?

I feel the same way! Finally someone else who thinks like this. But, dude, how do you handle dating?

Been away from Susans for about a month and I noticed this reply...

Well, the truth is, I'm really shy when it comes to dating. I'm a big flirt and can usually get away with first base, but when someone wants to get to know me on a more personal (and intimate) level, I freak out a bit. I live in an area where it's tough to be LGB and find a steady partner let alone being trans. I think it's because everyone knows everyone else around here, haha.

To Vince: how's the situation? Any update on Tokio?
