Guest MysteryGuy

Hello ladies and gentlemen. I am usually not a long winded person so I will be short here in introducing myself.

My name is not really Mystery but I prefer being called it online.

I am a transguy who has been on T for over a year and I am planning on having my top surgery towards the end of this year.

I don't really have much family support. I have been blessed (or if some of you prefer lucky) to have the few friends that I do have. They do very much in trying to understand and I really appreciate their thoughts, effort and support.

Unfortunately due to financial difficulties I am at home with my family until I can find a tolerable and affordable place to live without fearing for my safety.

I love sports, especially Basketball (GO Lakers ---ONLY because Phil Jackson is the coach and I love his coaching skills and work ethics).

I go to school part time and work full time. I am currently in Martial Arts and working on losing some weight and gaining some muscle.

Want to know anything else, just ask. I hope it isn't inconvenient if I opt not to answer some questions, no offense, but due to bad experiences online, I prefer to limit what I reveal.

Oh, Major is Psychology and I often play the Devil's Advocate...meaning I think (most of the time) before I speak (I am not perfect)...I am human so occasionally I will screw up and admit it.

Ultimately I would like to be a Children's Psychologist.

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy the rest of your day/night/morning/afternoon. :)

you can most certainly call Guy! Thanks for your welcoming me...and I am very much fluid in my sexuality, though I am sure there are many nice ladies and gentlemen here in the forums.

How is it going with you? today/night/afternoon/morning man?

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME

We are glad you are here! We have a diversity of people and a huge group of FTM like you say you are. There are also a large group about your age, and it is nice they have a new guy they can welcome. So look around and see what is going on and what you might be interested in, then post post post. We are non-judgemental and the site is g-rated, though Laura says it is really PG-13. We try to keep it monitored and safe for all.

So again welcome and feel at home.

Well,

When it comes to pizza I'm not too picky and since I love Pepperoni, Sausage, Mushrooms, black olives and all of the standard toppings, I know that I will find one that I like, especially, Pepperoni and jalapeños! :D

Lizzy is from New Orleans, so she will be looking for anything blackened or maybe some crayfish tails! :lol:

No need to hide, we never sue - we just resend your refreshment privileges! :rolleyes:

I think that you are going to like it here.

Love ya,

You need to go, it is a great place a blend of cultures and architecture from the old Antebellum mansions to the ultra modern, seafood, Cajun food, French Food, American food and any other kind that you can thing of. (The Mexican Food is better in Texas - Liz will admit that, she used to live here.)

Music everywhere - There is almost always a Dixieland Band playing in Jackson Square!

And along with the food, they are very much into Drinks as well from the very refined wine to the famous Hurricanes.

Lizzy had a great post about New Orleans under Mardi Gras - you might go back and look for it - very good.

Love ya,

Sally

Heavens, seems like grad school has taken over my life.

Sorry for the lateness of my welcome, Guy, but welcome. Looks like you've already been welcomed pretty well.

      No luck there, really. She's getting a signing bonus plus a little extra that I don't think would cover much in the way of the move, but it is something!   Oh my! I am glad to hear you're not passing anymore blood. I hope they figure it out soon! How distressing!   @April Marie @KymmieL @Mirrabooka @Willow @Justine76, thank you for the kind words and thoughts! We told our best friends last night. There were many tears. Now it's all about the work: selling the house (my wife's friend's son said he may want to buy it direct!), a job (a former employee of mine wants to bring me over to his company--and they're based outside of Tacoma!), and moving (just started going through what we don't want bring and donating things). So things have kicked off.   I'm not so sure of the job, it would be good to work with my former employee (he's great) but I fear the culture may not be super welcoming to someone like me--and the guy doesn't know I'm trans in any way. But I'll give it a shot as my authentic self and see what happens!

      @LadypcnjI'm sorry. I know the feeling my mom thinks I'm going through a phase too although I didn't come out till April 17, 2023, so it was later in life. I was in denial majority of my life. I would love to hear more about this if you are comfortable sharing more of it.

      I love fashion. I have over 100 dresses and 74 pairs of shoes. My walk-in closet is full of other clothes as well. I'm getting more shorts soon. SHEIN is awesome for quality and price. Just when you get a leather coat from them it's just the shell not the liner. Most of my shoes are from Torrid because I wear size 13 women's.

      Unfortunately Oklahoma is about as bad as Texas but definitely not as bad as Florida. Especially as a minor! 
    • Ashley0616
      I'm sorry @Ladypcnj I can only sympathize with you on that. Therapist on the other hand is crazy. I have had 16 in 10 years. It sucks having to have to go over things. I will say though after 6 therapists I didn't have to explain my history they simply read the history. 
    • Ashley0616
      I followed you and will give you my advice when I can. It has happened to me a lot too. If you want to you can always message me and I'll get back to you ASAP. I understand your concerns.

      I don't use it.   One of my daughters gave me a little to experiment with, but I haven't.  My youngest tried to put some on me once, but I din't like it.  The light was pretty bad admittedly. My ex didn't use it, and my daughters didn't use it much either when they were still at home.  (If so it was very subtle) And I don't often notice it on women my age (mid 70's)   I shave every day.  But my beard is not heavy, and essentially grey, so it's not real noticeable unless you get close with good light.  I was starting to look into electrolysis, but the pandemic hit, and I just kinda dropped it.   Sometimes I do wonder about it though.

      It's something I'm just learning but I find I actually enjoy the 'craft' of it in addition to how it makes me look. Even after a fresh shave, I have a mild 5'clock shadow. For me, the primary use of makeup is to get rid of that. I'll start with the orange concealer over facial hair areas and a bit under my eyes. Liquid foundation over that and light concealer used judiciously over that (still dialing that part in). Then just a tad of powder to bring color back in certain places. There are a number of Youtube tutorials on that layering process.    I'll also pencil in my eyebrows a bit since they're blonde and otherwise not very visible. Sometimes I'll get adventurous and give mascara a try but that's a delicate skill and usually I mess it up. I don't particularly like lipstick, but just ordered a 'lip pencil' to experiment with. Hoping for a more subtle effect.

      Sunday is my weekly ablution day - all of the parts that need occasional shaving get their required attention. The weather is rainy and cool today so after the ablutions and shower, I put on blue jeans, a gray t-shirt and a black front-zip hoodie along with gray sneakers.   And, I did put on make-up, not to impress anyone but just to feel as if I'm looking my best....as good as that can be given this woman is now 69 years old. 
    • April Marie
      There are lots of us here willing to offer support, ideas, a shoulder or just a smile. Working with your therapist and finding your true self can be difficult process...but it will also be filled with wonder and joy as you discover that person who's been waiting inside you to be found.   Just know that you are not alone.
