transhi all! i'm a 27 year old transwoman in sf. i've been on hrt for 16 months. i've never been so happy or even-keeled in my life. here's the thing though:
now that i am finally getting close to having a bodily identity that doesn't make me ill, how the hell does one start dating? and by dating i mean, meeting people with whom you might foster a long term monogamous relationship. for the record, i'm intentionally not stealth, but i kinda pass. i am actually really into being an out transwoman, i have no interest in passing as cis. while i see how that could complicate my dating ability, it's not what i'm seeking answers on.
basically, any single, out, (and maybe sober, like me) trans people: how do you meet people and/or cope with loneliness?
and anyone in a relationship, did you go through this? how did you transition your ability to meet people?
