I recently started a filter on my FB page called "Seeking Companionship", where I'm talking about dating, kink, sex, and related matters. I have started actively reaching out and seeking people for the first time in my life.

I did find a transfem Discord server to join, and though I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by all the people there, I'm hoping I can connect with folks.

I also spent a little time looking at the T4T subreddit and found a wider range of ages. I just posted a personal there: here's what I wrote

Feeling so much better lately has made me want to leap into social stuff head first. I've been Googling to see what kind of events, activities, and social groups I would like to try to be part of, and thinking about starting to attend them. Particularly exciting are some explicitly LGBTQ-positive poly social event / play parties that encourage ( Read more... )

I've been doing a lot of thinking about my experiences and feelings to date regarding relationships, dating, and play.
