We were drunk together and they told me they’ve been thinking about trying HRT. I didn’t respond the best, because I was also drunk. I was supportive, but maybe a bit too enthusiastic, when they seemed more tentative. When we were both sober, I offered to help them find HRT, but they said they were far too nervous. I want to find a good way to help and support them, without freaking them out or making them uncomfortable. Anyone have good ideas? Maybe just wait until the next time we drink together?

EDIT: I’m a trans man. They were AMAB and haven’t done anything to transition yet. Our friend group is all male, but pretty woke.

    ime acting ‘excited’ like happy smiley kind of excited is bad and will discourage them but acting like proud and comforting and concerned works the best at first if its someone whos cissoidsocialized. imagine how a good supportive normie friend would act when someone told them they have some kind of medical condition or something.
