I'm His First - Relationship Fears


MilaniKisses

Recommended Posts

Hello All,

 

I'm recently engaged to a guy who fell in love with me a few years before we ever met.  He was always hesitant about approaching me or meeting in person as he has always been into cis-gender females.  Anyways fast forwarding to today, we hit a 6 month milestone on being together.  We also have recently been engaged. :)

 

Ok, here are my concerns...

Recently, he had mentioned some things during intimate times which leads me to believe he is missing the equipment of a cis-female.  I obviously can not give him what he desires, so I have thought about exploring an open relationship. However, I am having a hard time trying to open  up to the idea of sharing my fiance with others.

 

Has anyone else been in a similar situation of wanting to please/fill a void for your partner but can't?  If you did, how?  Did you allow him/her to see members of the opposite sex?  

 

Just not sure what to do...  I know it sounds silly to worry about such a thing, but Im fearful that my fiance might cheat or leave me for what he is temporarily desiring...

 

Thanks,

Milani

Hi Milani, I am not at your stage of transition and am not currently in a relationship. But I hope a man who has asked you to marry him loves you and wants you to be happy. You are very beautiful and I am sure any man would want to be with you. You don't mention if you will have GRS surgery in the future which may alleviate all concerns. And of course communication is best you should bring up your concerns up to him and you can see what he thinks now and you can plan out what you 2 do in the future.

Hello Milani, 

I don't recall from your prior posts whether GRS is in your future, but as April suggests it may alleviate your worries.

Being in a serious relationship means we have these kinds of open discussions about our feelings and desires.  As to an open relationship, it appears to me to be something only a strong bond between you both would survive.  It would seem to open Pandora's Box.

Open communication is important--that he is talking to you about this is good. If you are not inclined to wanting to be in an open relationship, it's a bad idea to go there to try to "fix" any problems between you and your fiance. If he is committed to marrying you, and since you plan on getting GRS, then that can be a goal you can both work toward.

I would say going into an open relationship is not easy. Both sides have to be willing to not get jealous of their partner spending time with someone else. That is how it works with Jamie and I are  I no longer have a piece of equipment she desires, and since the surgery we have slowly been exploring things (I am probably the limiting factor, with me being cautious).  But it is fine, since we are both pan and care deeply for each other.

 

That being said, if you would get jealous of him in an open relationship that is just not going to work. And how would he react to you being with some one else is another question.

      I went to WM today with the objective of buying sandals: they would be women's, but look like men's; they would be brown or black, not white.  I realized the cheapest way to go  was to go for flip-flops, which I observed were prevalent in the store. So I checked out the women's.  Flowers. White shiny straps. Nothing that could possibly be men's. The best deal was one flip flop for $3.98.  At first I thought that was a pair, then, nope.  And because I comparison shop (is there the same thing in men's?) I found the cheapest over there was $6.98 for a pair of flip flops in green that also match my women's cargo shorts that I love.  Doing the math, finding the pink tax.  Rip off.  I have found a blue tax this way, but usually they charge women more for something than they do men. I guess women tend to lose one flip flop at a time or something. Weird.  The pairs were a lot higher.   So, following my rule, but unhappy with it, I bought the green men's flip flops.  They were the cheapest.  Later wife of mine complimented how masculine I look in my matching shorts and flip-flops.  Inward groan. We have not discussed the Subject in a long time because I think she forgets it is there as soon as the conversation ends.  Or she is trying to talk me out of this.  Not sure.  We only discuss it when necessary, and how often do most couples discuss whether one spouse is one sex or the other? Outside of here, I mean.  So we very seldom talk about it and she is happier if she does not know about it. Super stealth.  I do the laundry and I shower in the shower in the wing away  from the master bed room so I have my own shower.

      Aww, shucks! Thank you, @Ashley0616 and @Timi! I find taking a picture of myself so difficult.

      You're pretty! It's nice to see a face.

      I'm very glad that everything worked out even better than you thought. It's a tough spot to be in and I know the exact feelings. I'm still waiting to apply for divorce under abandonment so I officially can meet someone who one day I can call someone my prince or my queen. Although the desire for someone is fading because of everything. it's even more amazing that she was your high school sweetheart! Looking forward to the next entry.

      Awww thanks for listening everyone. I have another 5-6 songs in this style that I started recording at the same time, so hopefully I’ll finish the next release soon.   Yes, exactly. Everything was easier about this project, mainly because it felt authentic. The energy was very different, because it was such a pleasure to express myself without a filter. I laughed a lot.

      Thanks for listening @Mmindy.   You’re welcome @April Marie. I think Sally Can’t Dance is an underrated album.

      Well I had an interview with the local Ford Dealership for an opening in the parts dept. It sounded positive. I was told I would here by tomorrow morning.    Other than that just sticking around the house. I haven't done much, the weather is cold and yucky. Doesn't look like good weather till Sunday. Maybe tomorrow I'll fire up the heater in the garage and see about getting the other brake hose put on the Explorer.   Have a good rest of your day/evening.   Hugs, Kymmie

      Maybe they called me he/him at the dealership because I completely forgot my mascara! Eyeliner without mascara…a bold new trend among the helplessly lost! :)   Fixed that!

      Ah. Email from Gibson. [it was actually less legible than this, as he didn't use punctuation, it was all caps, and he ran all his words together. Taylor was used to it.   T - As everyone was under my super. this last year, don't worry about the evals. I will handle it. Send all email about new proposals to me, your unit handles work under way.  You will be involved but the first step is those go to me. Thanks   Here is an outline of what questions I want to see answered tomorrow.  Feel free to just jot down your thoughts.  If you don't know, say so and maybe point to how we can find that out............   Your new position will seem very challenging for a while but I am sure you can handle it.  Everyone has the utmost confidence in you.   PS your performance evaluation will be stellar, as reflected in your new position and compensation.  You get 100. One less thing to worry about.   Taylor sent him 45 emails right after that, gave some thought to the questions, and then had to turn to one of the proposals under way and review it.  That done, she read through the personnel files on her people so she would better understand them and what they could do. There was a very thin folder with her name on it.  It had one piece of paper on it. On it was written "the best!".  The others were thicker but didn't take long either, and she returned to answering the questions.
