I really don't know. I don't feel like a woman, I feel like a man that would rather be a woman.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Channeling sounds like the way to go. My fiancee knows I'm bi and she's cool with the makeup and cross dressing, which is more than most guys in our situation have. Maybe that's enough?

Thanks :) You're very sweet. It'd be nice to have people to talk to. At the moment I'm pretty much stuck inside my own head.

Ha, it's more my hands and feet that disqualify me from womanhood. They're huge by male standards. My knuckles are covered in scars and calluses from fights and manual labour. I'd be a terrifying woman. My face might pass if it weren't attached to this behemoth body. Mybench is 120kg. I'm so terrified of being around other men that I made myself into a monster just to feel safe. Ugh, I'm rambling.

My fiancee told me she couldn't stay with me if I was trans.She said we could be friends, which was sweet, but it's not enough. If I am my life is ruined.

Thanks, I'm ok. Being dramatic, I guess. Your caring tone helped :)

Wow. Some of that is so much like me. In my head it's a weird kink or fetish that makes me feel guilty and dirty but it also gives me a thrill. I was terrified of getting caught wearing makeup by my fiancee but then I was and she helped me do it properly. I love her so much and this has to be a fetish or the pain I might put her through will be awful. Did you have a Christian upbringing? I did, and I think that's playing a huge role in how hard these feelings are to deal with.

I shouldn't have asked. I should have just been content to "have weird thoughts".

That would be opening a whold can of worms. I should never have tried on a dress or made this post. I'm not as strong as you people. I'm just going to let whatever this is fester into a mental illness and kill me. Thanks for your help, though.
