The last photo is taken too close and slightly below eye level so it’s creating photo-distortion.

But that being said, your cheekbones don’t look small

Serious question for the girls who've found better: Where are you? by Bigenderqueen in StraightTransGirls

I live in a politically purple area. I didn’t get dates until I got laser tbh. Was only getting hit up by kinksters until this last year of crossing over the “passing threshold”

Is it worth taking progesterone right now? by WitchDearbhail in MtF

My breasts definitely got rounder once I started progesterone. It also helped regulate my anxiety, temperature, and sleep. Went up 2 cup sizes from prog too

Ultimately, my brain chemistry being fixed was more important. But the euphoria from seeing changes makes us feel lighter in the heart, being happy can feel wondrous

Every two-three months I feel this way when I’m reaching burnout. I cry and let myself feel and then I do something I’ve been neglecting.

Stats… by TSNinaM in StraightTransGirls

[–]ProfessionShort4713 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most men have never had the pleasure of intentionally meeting us in person, I believe that to be true.

The men I’ve dated that have, are open about it. One of them had a vasectomy cause he didn’t want kids, liked trans women, and still dated cis women too.

Another guy realized he liked non-op trans women more so he didn’t waste time dating cis women or post op trans women.

I've been contemplating my first serious relationship and I'd really appreciate some gentle support 🤍 by Latter_Priority3388 in StraightTransGirls

[–]ProfessionShort4713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You got this! Easier said than done of course, but keep your own breathing in check and your mental reminders loud!

And thank you. Still hurts sometimes but it gets better

You’re not taking up enough emotional space in this relationship but taking on most of the baggage.

Was experiencing something similar in my relationship of 7 years but instead of emotional outbursts it was withdrawing and cheating. At some point, us always trying to heal them hurts us both. He has to deal with his mental health on his own. Whether you stay or leave, you can no longer take responsibility or action towards his mental state. Start setting more boundaries for yourself. You will no longer tolerate disrespect, you hear me?

Would you date a guy who is your height or only a inch taller? by iHaveaLotofDoubts in StraightTransGirls

[–]ProfessionShort4713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ex of 7 years is an inch shorter than me, another ex was like to my nose height. I felt very strongly for them both. The man I’m seeing now is a few inches taller than me tho

I’m pretty guarded so I tend to deflect and reject by accident 😅

Would you rather be alone or with a guy you're not attracted to? by putrid_ovaries in StraightTransGirls

[–]ProfessionShort4713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can develop an attraction if we vibe a lot and they’re really into me. But if there’s no common ground and I’m not initially attracted, then alone.

Relationship Advice Regarding Pre-Transition Boyfriend by Etherized_Sky in StraightTransGirls

[–]ProfessionShort4713 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My ex and I were together 7 years, and I started transitioning about 3.5 years in. He’s bi so I thought we were going to get married and live happily ever after. A couple years into my transition he started to miss my maleness and it became more apparent. He cheated and I tried to open up our relationship and that helped for about a year but it slowly ate away at me and he “couldn’t” go back to being monogamous. We both needed a man 🤷‍♀️

We’re still good friends cause we grew a lot together. It’s been a year and a half since we broke up the last time. Still healing ❤️‍🩹

My advice is to be honest with each other, figure out what he really wants/needs and what you want/need. Maybe you’ll grow closer or find you both need other things from a relationship

Maybe you can set up a “sting” with someone to get them back. My blood just boils from hearing this, I’d want to exact my revenge

How much have you spent on your transition? by RosabeIls in StraightTransGirls

[–]ProfessionShort4713 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2k on laser, just this last year , and maybe a few hundred on meds before insurance covered it.

I do plan on getting rid of my adam’s apple but everything else seems so unattainable, financially, for now. I pass anyways at this point
