i sometimes see people here talk about having literal friends while not being out and i just get so fucking confused each time because how does that even happen? after trooning out i just couldnt. i couldnt do this shit. even if i look like a man, being deadnamed, misgendered and treated like a man by ‘friends’ hurts mentally so much more than just being alone. so much so that its been years since i had irl friends

        Humans are social creatures, friendships are worth it even if they bring pain

    idk. it could be because im some kind of non binoid but i literally couldnt give less of a shit about being misgendered or whatever.

    like the only reason i care about getting sir’d by strangers is cause it means i look like a man to them. if someone knows im a tranny and sirs me anyway or whatever but i passed and they were just being a dickhead i wouldnt really care

    I’ve known them since before trooning out…I just don’t know what to tell them. I’ve always looked androgynous and did not behave manly, so I’m getting away with it. It is still tough living a lie.

        They’ve always treated me well. I have no reason to ditch them. I just don’t know what to tell them…or why. I want everything to stay like it used to…as if the trans issue never existed.

          you know that it wont stay like it used to right? the current thing is all based on a lie since its not the actual you and you either tell them or they find out, it wont stay hidden forever. its better to bite the bullet early and make new friends past trooning out

            I don’t want everything to be about being trans. I want to be more than my disease. If they find out, so be it. But I’ll not tell them on my own.

              well if you can stomach the being treated like a man thing, misgendered and deadnamed then sure i guess

                Yeah, misgendering and deadnaming doesn’t bother me much. And nobody who knows me treats me like a man, kek.
