Hi,

I've been looking for a site like this one, where, as my therapist says, I can talk about the real me.

I have known since I was like 3 years old that I was supposed to be born a 'boy'. I AM one! But, since I was born in the female shell, I have been forced to live life as a girl :(

I am VERY happily married to my husband for what will be 24 years, soon. And yes, he knows. I told him about my trans situation about 3 years ago. He said as long as I don't have a sex-change, its fine, jokingly. I'm bi-sexual so no leaving this guy, either way. Love him!!!!! But I prefer men 10 to 3, I'd say.

I dress in more manish ways when he is off working, and have a haircut that I'd still wear as a man.

I am 46 years old and am SO envious of the modern FTM's because they are actually changing their bodies and lives to fit who they are. Lucky, lucky.

I can just see if I did that. My family would flip out, and as I'm in Education, there goes my job.

I see young gay guys, or straight ones, who look similar to what I'd like to look like and it makes me so sad, and I feel cheated. I want to look like that!!

My gay friends are an awesome way for me to sort of live viacarioulsy through them. Don't get me wrong, I'd be friends with them even if I were the girliest girl alive. They just bring me a bit of peace.

Are there others out there in a similar situation?

I love music, men's pro tennis, writing, reading, travel, shopping, and animals.

Thanks for the therapy and without the fee, too :D

Welcome. It's nice that you're very happily married to someone, especially with the high divorce rate in our country. I hope we'll be able to help and provide decent free therapy for you.

Welcome to Laura's! You are joining a wonderful group of people who

are all here to support one another. As Sally and Donna Jean have

said, there are a lot of us here in the "slightly older" group, many with

spouses and families just like you. It does get complicated for us, but

that's why its so great to be able to talk about all of it with friends.

I'm so glad to hear that your husband is supportive and caring. That's

something to cherish. :)

Thanks you for the kind words and warm greeting! I'm glad to know that I am not alone.

I am looking forward to talking with others like myself.

      PM any or several of the Moderators or Administrators if you want to have something changed due to spelling errors, or if you simply want to have an entire post deleted.  We do not allow members to edit their own posts since there are some items we restrict from being posted.  Those things are in the Community Rules and if a Staff member has removed something because of the rules we do not want it coming back.  https://www.transgenderpulse.com/community-rules/   Use the PM system to contact us and include a link to the post you want changed.

      you're welcome. I tagged one for you and hopefully will respond soon.

      Oh okay, thanks Ashley

      No only moderators and admin can edit and delete posts.

      Do I ever feel? There isn't a single minute that goes by that I feel that way. I have such a strong hate for what I have that there isn't a word out there for it.
    • Ladypcnj
      Are members allowed to edit or delete their post? I can't delete or remove my post if there are misspelled words.

      I already tried that. Either too old like 60's and 70's or married. Not many people who would want to date a trans woman in dead red Mississippi. Maybe once things calm down just get a Mustang GT and just give up on it. Both are going to bring joy and pain. At least I could learn and share my love of cars with my kids when they get that old. I wouldn't even know what to do if someone said they wanted me. I would've already been thinking in my mind they are just going to ghost me so what's the point. I just don't know what to do anymore. I tried putting myself out there online and out in person. I haven't tried a bar yet although that's probably a bad idea. Maybe just to experience it again. I haven't been to one since 2013. The only problem I see is I'm not a night owl for sure. I go to bed at 8-830. My expectations were just that I wouldn't get rejected last. I have been able to handle a good bit of it but this one really hurt. I guess that's what happens when you have some hopes and expectations. It's not like I have another friend IRL to talk about this. She is my only one. I wished I didn't put myself out there.

      As one who had to deal with the Porn/Adult Entertainment business as commercial, taxpaying businesses on a professional level, I can say that they are in it for money and the highest percentage of their income comes from ultra conservative areas where adequate Medical and Mental Health Profession and University Science instruction on Trans issues are banned.    It makes me wonder how much porn literature is hidden behind the 13 Bibles and Bible Study guides on some people's family bookshelves.

      Do you ever feel trapped in a body that doesn't feel like yours?

      There's the old thing of getting out and getting involved in things in the community and meeting people that way. Does your church have a food pantry? Does it have service opportunities you could plug into otherwise? You might run into someone that way. 
    • Ashley0616
      Well that didn't go well. She said she is intentionally single. When will I just stop thinking about putting myself out there. It really hurt but rejection and getting ghosted is just my second language apparently. The one person I have told all my dark secrets and didn't run off. At least we are friends. I'm happy only when I'm sleeping and that is it because things actually go my way from time to time. Just another wonderful day of me. SMDH!
    • Abigail Genevieve
      In their minds, yes, unless it is clearly, consistently, forcefully articulated by those who represent trans people that we are not.  I'm not sure who that would be.

      So, this proves that we're all  pedophiles? I suspect that the majority of pedophiles are probably cis.   Yeah, Alexander the Great was probably queer.  What does this have to do with me needing to pee?   I am so tired of this ___.  I raised 8 kids and never molested any of them - unless you count changing diapers without closing my eyes.  Yeah… so tired.   It makes me wonder what is actually on these people's minds.
