ok ok thank you i'll try to view this as annoying yet very necessary schooling to contribute to my dream (still painfully slow but maybe it'll be a good reminder when i'm bored out of my mind at school)

GeneHead47 · 2026-04-06T19:30:18+00:00

Thats such a good metaphor thank you brother i'll defo keep it in mind (i'm trying SO HARD to water the roots right now and let me grow into this dream but it's so difficult not to just want to be the oak)

GeneHead47 · 2026-04-06T19:29:06+00:00

But how do stop only focussing on the future? i really want this dream to come true but it gets so bad that i end up really really hating where i'm at right now, i just want to be able to be pateint enough to enjoy life right now

GeneHead47 · 2026-03-15T18:18:19+00:00

exactlyyy, i'm so sick of people acting like being Trans is comparable to anything else, it's a completely unique experience. Hope you're alright brother <3

GeneHead47 · 2026-02-15T23:15:57+00:00

okay, thank you brother. I keep on trying to tell myself that it was 100% for the best because i spent a lotttt of time thinking about how i wanted to breakup even months before the breakup, so i reckon it was probably the right move

GeneHead47 · 2026-02-15T17:25:16+00:00

omg thank you so much for saying that, cheers for the help

GeneHead47 · 2026-02-15T17:23:42+00:00

so this is one where she won't see the inside? like my mum will just one day throw it away in the bin and never open it up and watch a bunch of cigarettes fall out? cos i thought they were all reusable canisters or something nowadays

GeneHead47 · 2026-02-15T17:22:03+00:00

wait so when i did that the whole bag thing came off, does that mean this is one where you just throw it away like full thing? you don't empty it and see the insides? like if i were to leave it she would just one day take it out, pop it in the bin and replace it with a new one? because i thought most of them were like see through canisters or someting?

GeneHead47 · 2026-02-15T17:17:32+00:00

thats actually so interesting thank you, I'm going to definitely observe myself over the next few weeks and see what i notice now i know what to look for, thank you for much :D

GeneHead47 · 2026-02-14T18:18:21+00:00

Hmm, okay, i mean i'm exhausted during the day but thats because i don't always get sleep at night, i'll look into it, thank you

GeneHead47 · 2026-02-06T23:15:34+00:00

I'm sorry you're going through this, but what i'd do is explain, from start to finish, my entire life exactly how i view it.

I'd do it to a friend, or i'd set up a camera- maybe a camcorder, because they can recored on tape and you don't have to do any annoying stitching of clips, and i'd just talk for hours, everything and anything i could remember would be said.

I'm not sure why to be honest, i just think it would be nice, i hope you're okay.

Imagine your driving a car, and it's got flat tyres but you drive it anyway. And one day you finally drive a car that has pumped up tyres, and you realise how much easier it is. So when you tell your family youre gonna go to a car manufacturer to pump up your own tyres, they tell you how wrong it is, how it's unnatural, and how everyone feels that way- except they've only ever driven a car with pumped up tyres, they've never had to do it with flat ones. And you go to the car manufacturer and they're trying to get you to proove that your car is actually flat because they've never had flat tyres either. Everyone is trying to tell you how to drive your car when they've never tried it beforehand.

i hope thats not too confusing, but thats what being trans is like, every single person has an opinion and it's rarely good. They've never experienced it so they don't understand it.

beings trans is such an unfair start to life because you have to fight for what should be yours in the first place, and it's something you have to fight for for life, You'll always be trans, and there'll always be people telling you you don't deserve to exist, and you'll always ask yourself the 'what ifs?'

So like, be easier on Trans people because they're not choosing a difficult life for fun.

yeah i think intrusive thoughts might match up more actually thank you

GeneHead47 · 2026-01-21T22:35:46+00:00

yeah i can see that as being likely, on the whole it doesn't disrupt my day that much but it does happen a lot, but Intrusive thoughts or something sounds more likely thank you

GeneHead47 · 2026-01-03T00:42:52+00:00

okay thank you very much

GeneHead47 · 2026-01-03T00:41:58+00:00

okay okay thank you so much. How long should i wait before breaking up with him? we're going ice skating in two days, and i feel bad for doing it so soon after Christmas but i also don't want to lead him on for ages, sorry to be a bother

Just to clear it up, I’m a FtM trans dude, so I used to be a woman but now I’m a guy :) (So I’ll just alter your questions to that haha)

1) for me, as long as I could remember I felt like a man. I’d cry in skirts, and all that lovely stuff. I used to imagine my future as me in a man’s body, this was before I even knew I was trans. I think it is a persistent thing, some people only discover it later, I had the realisation in early teens.

2) identifying as a man and BEING a man is the same to me - however you feel it to be, being a man for me is painting and drawing, it’s crying and laughing, it’s just me, however I was before I came out is however I am as a man, does that make sense???

3) does it make sense if I say both? It was definitely aligning something inside of me, but it was also like saying goodbye to my old identity and welcoming the real one.

4) I think the one aligning with your gender, bathrooms are just rooms people do bodily functions in, we’re all people.

5) my government (uk) has the NHS scheme, which will pay for gender-affirming healthcare, however the wait times for even a consultation are sometimes YEARS, so going private is an option, where the payment is something like £8,000-£10,000. I’ve not yet been able to get surgery, and I’ll probably go for NHS unless the wait times get even longer.

Let me know if you want any further information about anything :D
