So I have just come out to my wife. :thumbsup:

Throughout answering or trying to explained everything to her, she seems very interested in getting to know my female persona. I love that she wants to know everything but I'm not sure I'm very comfortable with it yet. I kind of know, but I'm not that good at explaining fashion or look. These are the thoughts and feelings that I have been suppressing for so long.

My wife is very fashionable and attractive, so I'm a little intimidated as well. She wants to be there to help and support me. I just feel that the more I divulge to her the more scared I get. I don't want things to move to fast and consequently freak her out and yada yada! I mean she says she is understanding and will support me every way she can. But she also says that she can't promise that she will stick around in the end. I guess that is understandable. I have been telling her that we shouldn't speak in absolute.

I can see the concern in her eyes and how she wants to help. She is also worried about how I will transition. She didn't want to be with an ugly male and I'm sure she doesn't want to be with and ugly girl for sure! I want to be attractive to her and I know my internal female persona is able to be when she can fully express herself. I know she is beautiful but how can I get started?

      @Birdie @Adrianna Danielle    @Willow    Big news today. We're moving to WA. My wife is taking a job and I am most likely losing mine, so it's adventure time. I'm supposed to be a risk-seeker (Aries, ENTP, etc.) but this is hitting every klaxon and alarm in my brain, but it's going to make my wife and kids happy and it will be a place to make new friends as me without the 45 years of binary baggage. There are tech jobs all over Seattle, which we'll be near, and it's a decent State for trans rights (I don't know how it compares to MN, which is a refuge state). So wish us luck! This could be the best thing ever or rocky as hell, who knows!

      I know the feeling. I had to replace the dishwasher, fridge, stove. The only other issues that could pop up is the washer and dryer and the microwave oh I forgot the toaster.

      That's the hard part of online relationships, they really never get to see the whole you. You either have to create a persona that will carry the day until they get to see you for who you are, or be open and take the risk because it's really easy for them to disconnect because there is little to no bond.   You have to share pictures of your puppy! I am not a dog person, but I can appreciate them in jpg format! My kiddos would love to have a pet, but we're all allergic in some shape or form and my wife and I are like, "no." :D

      I'm sorry Birdie! I wished you could move to a non-stressful place.

      I love shopping for cars with my imaginary budget lol. A mustang is always fun to drive! Every time I felt down or depressed I drove it and it made me happy!

      It absolutely does!

      Well things have actually been really good lately. I got a dog last Friday. I forgot how expensive they are but they are worth it. Now if I can just get him potty trained that would be awesome! He only has one particular spot inside that he likes so I try to watch him carefully. He is part German Shepheard and part Lab. He is very low maintenance. The sad part is that he didn't know what to do with a treat nor did he knew how to play fetch instead my youngest was playing fetch. He is kind of getting used to toys somewhat. I'm no longer expecting a relationship because I tell them what is wrong with me because I don't want them to be surprised about anything and they always ghost me. Oh well.

      Thank you! I really appreciate your comments. You have done quite a lot and I hope it still continues.

      Even with the court ruling, the problem is that many of the insurance companies continue to have exclusions for everything unrelated to a vaginoplasty. For folks who are transgender females, we still get no protections to ensure we can get electrolysis (other than for genital preparation prior to vaginoplasty), voice/speech therapy or surgery, facial feminization procedures, or body contouring. There are many components that go along with managing our dysphoria. When the government mandates all of these measures, then I will say it was a victory.   I am still worried that all of the progress will be eradicated if the election goes poorly in November.
