It Is Time For Me To Move

Hi Everyone,

A few weeks ago I was on here worried that I would have to move. My roommate has been complaning as of late and making statements that aren't as nice as they could be. At first he was making a big deal about me not being a female on my ID and worried about his saftey in TJ by being associated with me. I took care of the ID part which I thing really surprised him and yesterday he was just in a sour mood. He came home from shopping and walked straight into the Kitchen without even saying hi or a male grunt or anything. I left soon afterwards and when I returned he just stayed in his bedroom which was fine with me. I am through walking on eggshells around him and I think I need to find a place of my own.

Hi Emily

There are so many things in this world that make us unhappy but are beyond out control that I believe we should change all those we can.

Your life has been unfolding so beautifully lately it is a shame to have this mar it.

I hope you can find a place that is safer and a roommate who will appreciate you for the remarkable woman you are!

Hugs

Emily good for you girl. You don't need to change for him or anyone. I too hope it is back to the states when you move. I will feel much better about your safety here. I hope your are able to move soon.

Hey everyone,

I have decided to move to Minnesota in September. Most likely minneapolis near the light rail line. I understand that the VA is right on the track so to speak and so it will be ideal for me. Thanks for the support. I told my roommate last night and he tok the news very well and we are again friends with out issues. The main cause of the problem was centered around security. TJ is a dangerous place and not only was I at risk but he was at well. It would have been unfair of me to ask him to carry such a burden. He is planning on visiting me in Minneapolis and maybe we can go fishing or something. I still like that, though I rarely catch anything!

Huggs,

Emily

Yea Emily!

That's a drastic change in climate and culture but it will be so good to feel safe!

I'm happy you have resolved your issues with your roommate and have a friend back. I can understand his concerns.

And Minnesota is such a fishing paradise. Do you do winter sports? I just thought of all the winter fashions you can wear now!

Awesome news! Unless of course you become a Wild fan, then we may be at odds. :lol: Kidding. . .Wild are cool, when not facing the Avs. ;)

Hopefully this will be a safer environment (albeit much, much colder) than TJ. Also glad you and your friend have an understanding that you do. It's wonderful.

Hi Emily. :-)

So glad you and your roomate are at better terms with each other. Minnesota! Wow Emily that is a drastic change. I have been there many times in the past, just to visit and go fishing, love to fish out there for Walleye,yum....:-)At least you will be back in the states and out of TJ, I still do not know why you moved to TJ in the first place, probably explains it in one of your posts I have not read yet though.

Hugs,

Suzie

      If that happens, a lot of things I don't want to see might also be codified into law.  And some things that shouldn't be law might not get repealed.  To me, progress in one area isn't worth the price we'd have to pay in several other areas.     For me, voting on LGBTQ issues always ends up as an "out of the frying pan, but into the fire" sort of event.

      Trying out a new wig. Got my reading glasses on. I've also got dark roots now - first time in years.

      Thea, your post made me think of a comic named Chloe Petts whom I saw recently on Hannah Gadsby's Gender Agenda comedy special on Netflix. She is a cisgender masculine lesbian. She is brilliant and so funny. I was intrigued by her identification - specifically masculine, not butch. And it seems to me there is a difference.

      Today I had a dr appt. When I checked in, I was asked my surname, which I gave. Apparently there were two patients with appointments at that time with that same surname. The receptionist asked, "Are you (my legal name which is feminine) or Paul?" I got such a kick out of it not being assumed I had the feminine name.

      That must have felt affirming, albeit perhaps weirdly so. However, I'd construe that more broadly (no pun intended) as sexism rather than misogyny where the latter would imply contempt. Also, incidentally, I've heard chivalry referred to as "benevolent sexism".

      My boss is in a panic. His business is a couple straws away from breaking a camel in half. He's just handling the stress very poorly.   My dad, though. He's handling things pretty well, as long as I continue to don't get massively offended by being called: son, boy, etc. His eldest is leaving the State and looks so different than he's been used to over the years. I haven't told him I'm on HRT, but to be fair the changes haven't been massive. I've always had boobs, more so after COVID weight gain and made more obvious with its loss, but now I'm not hiding them--and obviously wearing a bra. The estrogen has done some work, but nothing major (sadly). I think the biggest HRT changes have been my skin and a mild amount of fat redistribution.   Today I'm wearing my cheater, I almost have cleavage! :D I need to get another t-shirt bra to keep a good rotation. I only have two, one push-up, and the rest are unlined (great for Summer, but not great for my Summer wardrobe ).

      Thank you so much April!

      Glad to hear it. Abby

      I eat a ketogenic diet and have had no problems. I don't know about your case but I suspect it is the estrogen. Research the types of ways to take estrogen. Pay close attention to the bloodwork results. If they are not satisfactory, bring it up with your doctor. I take injectables, which are fully covered by insurance. It may not be the route for you, but something to consider. I emphasize to do your research and good luck. You can solve this. Be persistent.    Jennifer

      I'm in a magenta blouse under a baby blue buttoned cardigan - still a little cool here in the northeast today - with dark blue jeans. Oh, and my favorite flame colored copper feather earrings.

      What a wonderful photo! You look gorgeous!!!
    • Justine76
      White crop top and capri jeans ;) Finaly tricked the face id on my phone, "that's not you" lol.

      This is my opinion, so take it for that. Fatigue is based more on what you eat. Eat a more healthy diet, and stay away from ultra-processed foods and that should help. Think of eating the way we did a couple hundred years ago before the industrial revolution. It's just a thought.   Jennifer
    • April Marie
      Welcome back, Jennifer! As a relative newbie to the forum and to transition, I look forward to getting to know you and share in your experiences.
    • JenniferB
      I like the fact that you found support and have close members of your life. That is very important. No matter where you are on your journey, you have to have the support. Or you drift, and you question yourself.    Looking forward to your progress,   Jennifer
