I can't think of anything I need after SRS. I've already got everything I want out of life; a home, friends, a man I  love and who loves me back. What more could I ask for?

not a whole lot

Now I am not just talking about becoming a woman and being at peace with yourself.
Do you want to find someone that you can be with for a long time, or play the field. My self I don't think I am ready to settle down in a cozy little house with one guy forever. I guess I don't want to think that if I was to find mister right, I better grab him and hold on. I just hate limiting myself.
Truly I can picture myself in one of those "Girls Gone Wild" videos. Even though I am to old for that stuff now, I still have some wild oats to sew. I want to experience as much as being a woman as I can. I do know alot of my frustrations come from being on the ranch alone and being dressed in jeans and boots for the most part. When I do get a chance to get out I tend to go a little crazy. You city girls get to mingle all the time. I do miss some of that.
Just my take

Amusing, the recollection of a dialog past...

A sister and I once were discussing this very subject via Yahoo! IM and we both concluded that both of us were prime candidates for going through "cinderella syndrome' [as she described the phenomenon] post-op.

I fully concur.

But having said that, I really do not wish to live alone upon completion. It is not too late by any means, to find and marry a good man who will love me for who I am and to love me sexually.

'Tis the stuff that dreams are made of.

I have to admit doing a girls gone wild video is very tempting. I found my special someone so that particular goal for after srs is accomplished. Hugs and kisses Melissa. A place not in town (is adapted from original plans of way out in the boonies due to a city girl as a girl friend). That's a goal. A better job is another. Maybe my own business someday. Hand gliding is a definate along with travel and seeing more of the world. In short to live my life not just exist.

Thank you for reminding me.  This was one I really wanted to do as well.  In fact, I've put off going back to school since 2004 (not just transition, but for my ex too) and I would like to continue with the course (no pun intended) I was set on before in regards to education.

i hope i can afford to go to school amidst transition

HAND gliding?  Now that sounds like fun!  Will have to ask Melissa.  But why wait?

Enjoy it now.

I want to have normal relationship with men.

One of my desire's is to actually get SRS.........I've been long term TS, probably about 22 years altogether..... 

You know, all I really want is to see if I can actually live this life like everyone else seems to be able to do. Really, that is all I want...


You know what else is rather ... well, something. So many of my dreams and hopes have been shattered and broken, So much of my desire lay bloodied and beaten on the floor. ^*shrug* I would suppose if I can actually function in this life I will go about rebuilding some of that... lost spark.

Meh.

Another thing I had been wanting to do was do some acting as a female.  I'm actually doing that one now.  Most goals can be achieved even before SRS.  SRS isn't about something needed to achieve goals, but rather something to help me be comfortable and put me at peace with myself.

to stop hating life

have normal sex
get married
kids (however)
a dog
a cat
a car
a house
a carear, oh wait,
a life...

A couple resaons for waiting on hand gliding: One I had my job position eliminated just prior to having srs, I had it anyway. Two I've been without work since then and unemployment didn't pay the bills so I'm even further behind then I was from SRS. Three my new job is only about 2/3 the wage of the last, which is rather hard on the finances, lol. Four my shoulders needed time without work to heal as they both had had the tendons severely torn, now have tendonitus and chronic shoulder strain. Etc. Also I'd like for Melissa to go with me for it to be our first time hand gliding together when we do and her priority is getting her srs. So maybe next summer or Autumn.

I need to get there first...
