Currently in my “keep being out as nonbinary or lowkey detransition to find the intimacy I need” phase of my life 😔

People might get mad at me but idk it’s my life and I’m kinda wondering if it would be worth it to try to pretend to be “normal” so I can get what I’ve been missing out on

No it wouldn’t be worth it. it’s so frustrating the hurdles we gotta go through to find our person, but yours is out there! I tried doing that idea but felt miserable as fuck the entire time I was getting close to ppl. The imposter syndrome and dysphoria got 1000 times worse. I managed to meet someone who actually respects my identity after I cut the guy off and begun retransitioning (idk the right word)

i don’t think it would be worth it to be honest. you’re always gonna feel like there’s a part of you missing, because there is. you can find the intimacy you need as yourself, it might just take a little more effort and time but i don’t think that means you should give up.

The kinds of people who are into the “real” me aren’t my type though, and honestly I’d be feeling dysphoric about myself no matter what I presented as, I’m not comfortable with any gender identity really

I know if I waited a couple decades I could probably find someone, but I really don’t want to have to keep waiting so long just to feel some of the intimacy I’ve been wanting so badly
