won't be taken seriously

Since I'm already in a relationship with a man, I feel like once I start to transition, I won't be taken seriously, and that my partner will end up turning around and saying he can't handle it.    

decluttering identity

I got rid of a lot of stuff. Clothing, accessories and pictures of me from about age 12 to age 20. Gifts I received for my birthday or Christmas that somehow reminds me of my “female role” I felt I was playing for so long. Birthday cards or letters that describe how nice of a girl I was. Drawings I made, crafts I made.

All those memories are suffocating. I literally really need space to figure things out.

doesn't rain, it pours

Between a hard breakup and quasi-accepting my trans identity (guess which one caused the other!) I’ve been a f**king mess.

So I suppose I’m lucky that my work called to say “we want to keep you, but you have to take some personal time until you get your shit together. Your job will be here when you get back”.

Except no, because I can’t afford to not be working.

Doesn’t rain, it pours.

i'm a transman who is attracted to lesbians

I have just come out as trans to everyone and now I feel like I have no identity. Being a lesbian is all I’ve ever known and now I am terrified that I am going to be viewed as straight. I am not attracted to straight girls, I am attracted to queer girls, but yet I know I want to be male. What does this make me? What am I? I am so confused right now.

possible to be trans and popular?

Is it possible to be a popular person in your conventional singaporean society/friend circle while being a transman? Has anyone managed to do so/maintain their popularity?

closeted transman looking for a job

This isn't really a confession, but as a partially closeted transman I have a question: Is employment a problem? Is it different getting a job as a transman here in Singapore vs being cis? If so how? I'm a guy with a bachelor's degree and i'm freaking out about jobs. Thanks guys :)

what to put on tinder?

As a transman who isn't considering taking T or any op yet, I wonder which to put, male or female, on Tinder.
Either I might annoy a lesbian who wants a cis female or I might piss off a straight girl who wants a cis male dude.

afraid to come out to best friend

How will i ever come out to my best of best friend ? We've known each other for like our whole lives, like almost ''literally'' i'd known him since when i was 4 years old, total 14 years. However i feel like we had this barrier thing between us, i wasn't really able to tell him anything. I even came out easily to my two other best friend of 7 years and 4 years easily, they seems to be more easy to come out to.

How long am i gonna be keep him in the dark? i've already started transition and it will come one day which he will ask questions, how am i suppose to answer them, i don't want things to be awkward between us. It feels like if i ever come out to him, my whole life would change, things would probably never be the same again.

Yes, i am a boy by birth. My best friends have still been treating my like a boy, i don't need them to treat me like a girl, i just want them to treat me as a normal human being, but not as a boy ! It's even weirder when i am talking to him about relationship, and how much i hope i would get a girlfriend soon, and yes i'm a lesb-trans. He would say like i was more handsome when i cut my hair, and i'd be like, no... but i was never able to tell him the reason.

We go a long way back... and he have totally no clue that i am a trans because i was never girly in anyway, probably because i see myself as a tomboyish girl ( trans ) + lesb ,  damm that's even confusing when i start to think about it, well we all know there's no fixed gender/expressions/etc
This could go on forever ~

Any FTMs out there have gone through something like that ? with your best friend.
