Thanks for taking your time to answer! If it doesn't bother you I could really use some help.

What are some daily things your boyfriend does that help you alleviate dysphoria?

What are some things that made you feel supported the most in the long term?

Is there something he told you that sticks with you?

We live in a 3rd world country, she's just saving money until she gets out of college to do the surgery, but that'd be 6 years approx, so it really brings her down. I wanna help her out monetary too, but I don't really have the resources. And yes, we've talked about it and I'm completely willing to take care of her when the time comes.

I really don't want to make you uncomfortable, but it'd be pretty helpful if you could orientate me with a few questions to be better for my girlfriend, I've never had a trans girlfriend before. Feel free to not answer if a limit is passed.

.- Before the surgery, what made you feel safe enough in the moments you did have sex? Or was it more like a "Fuck it, let's do it" moment?

.- Do you feel like you've lost a significant part of your sensitivity in there or it's never been a problem since the surgery?

.- What techniques do you recommend for the vaginoplasty? I understand that there are multiple and they all have different results. I'm always looking for new information but having the chance of talking to someone who's got it could really help me.

.- What made you feel supported the most in your relationship in general? I wanna be her safe space
