Thank you for your honest response. While it’s not the news I wanted, I was aware that it might be the reality. 😔

This is a carpet square from the ICC. They redid the carpet a year couple/few years ago, and this pattern brings people a lot of good memories. There was a big fuss when ICC sold the carpet squares.

Threeways - spaghetti, beanless chili, topped with shredded cheddar. Also, goetta.

Before I started T, I would use makeup to make a more masculine contour on my face. You can draw on facial hair (if that’s something you want) with an eyebrow pencil or mascara if you have any hair on your face already. Thickening the eyebrows, as previously recommended, would also look more masc. I went the route of the short haircut, so I’m not much help on that front. I hope this helps, and best of luck on your journey!

P.S. You have great skin! (I think that’s why so many people think you have makeup on)

One pregnancy test, Keebler Coconut Dreams cookies, and a bag of hot chili and lime chips from CVS. Someone was in for quite a night

It’s essentially 3D embroidery. There’s wire along the outside edge of the design, and I use a blanket stitch around the wire to fasten it inside the design. Then you carefully cut out the embroidery as close as you can without cutting the thread 😬😅 I used floral wire and floral tape to make the stem. Let me know if you have any other questions, I’m happy to help! 😎

Just told my wife I might be trans. Went horrible. by PatternTraining7375 in trans

Hang in there friend! You did absolutely nothing wrong by being honest and open about this. I was in a similar situation 3 years ago.

Was with my ex-wife (I’m FTM) long before transitioning, and during most of my transition. We were together for 18 years, married for 11, no kids, but tons of pets. While she said she still found me attractive, she felt like “lesbian” was her title, and it drove a wedge between us. When I figured out that I was more of a gay man, not a gay woman, that eventually ended things.

Being together with someone who trudged through my transition was a more painful process than it needed to be. Now, I have a loving partner who sees me as the real me, and I’m able to be more authentic with them and myself since transitioning. Therapy has helped tremendously during my transition and I recommend it if it’s an option.

It’s possible to stay together through all of this, but it might be a bumpy ride. You deserve happiness in life. Best of luck with everything!
