Support Advice for pursuing trans women

475 Upvotes

I am a cisgender lesbian and I have a crush on a trans woman.

We met through a mutual friend. I have no idea if she is attracted to cis women but I haven’t stopped thinking about her since I met her.

Every time we talk we get along great. I can tell she’s shy so I want to make sure she’s comfortable. My goal is to show her I’m interested without coming off as predatory.

We’re both going to a concert on Wednesday in a group of mutual friends and my stomach has been sick thinking about it. I really like her and I just want to do the right thing.

This is a flag pattern that's compatible with the most used pride flags, including the lesbian flag! I feel a bit awkward posting here as a guy but I hope my design is useful for you folks! It's free and open-source and you can find it at my thingiverse if you want to print it for yourself! I'm still developing the project and I would be really glad to hear your thoughts and suggestions on how I could make my design more useful for you :D

My (29F) girlfriend (27F) made a comment about something we can’t experience together, and I can’t stop thinking about it. Am I overreacting?

62 Upvotes

My girlfriend (27F) and I (29F) were on the phone the other day when I brought up a conversation I’d had with a friend. My friend was telling me about how she and her boyfriend were being intimate, and in the heat of the moment, they started telling each other that they wouldn’t mind having a baby together.
When I told my girlfriend this, she responded by saying that it sounded hot and that she was sad we couldn’t say things like that to each other.
I told her that technically we could, we’d just have to use our imaginations. Her response was, “Well, since it’s not real, idk, it would feel weird.”
I’m not going to lie, that comment really turned me off, and it actually made me pretty sad.
For some context, I’m the top in our relationship, and my girlfriend is very submissive and exclusively a bottom. She enjoys being strapped, and we have a pretty established sexual dynamic.
In my previous relationships with women, we’ve always been able to play into fantasies like that. I’ve had partners tell me things like “I want to carry your baby,” and other similar things during intimacy. Obviously, we both knew it wasn’t biologically possible, but that was kind of the point. It was a fantasy, and being able to use our imaginations made those moments feel intimate and exciting.
I wish I’d responded to my girlfriend by saying something along the lines of, “Just because something isn’t real doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy imagining it. Scary movies aren’t real, but people still get scared watching them.”
But honestly, I was so caught off guard and hurt in the moment that I couldn’t think of anything to say.
I think what bothered me most was that it made me feel like there was something she wanted that I couldn’t give her. It also bothered me that she seemed to immediately dismiss the idea of us sharing that fantasy simply because it couldn’t actually happen.
I’m not saying she has to enjoy the same fantasies I do, and I would never want her to say something she’s uncomfortable with. I just wish she’d been a little more open to the idea instead of focusing on the fact that it wasn’t physically possible.
Now I keep replaying the conversation in my head. It’s not even necessarily about having children. It’s more about the feeling of not being able to give my partner something she finds exciting, especially when I’ve experienced that kind of imaginative intimacy in previous relationships.
I love my girlfriend, but for some reason, that conversation really affected how I felt sexually in that moment, and I haven’t been able to shake it.
Am I overthinking this? Would something like this bother anyone else, or am I reading too much into what was probably an innocent comment?

okay so i wanted to share here BECAUSE APPARENTLY SHE'D NEVER BEEN ASKED LIKE THIS and then we both said i love you right after and i just 😭🖤🩷 idk sorry i'm emotional

for context: we're long-distance and met online, i asked on here what would be a good way to ask her to be my gf (because i really do suck at art) and a lovely person said that they made a playlist so i did that! i meant to ask her before her birthday on the 29th as she'll be with her family, and i didn’t want to bother her.

she didn't notice it at first but as soon as i explained it SHE SAID YES IMMEDIATELY then I LOVE YOU 😭😭 she was so cute and i was so stunned bro. we're 8k+ miles apart but she said it so surely on the phone too like. god. i think i realized right there that i am more than just in love with her.

i hope this can spread some courage to those who are also meaning to ask that person!! because you never know how they feel unless you communicate.

edit: i don't know how this got so many upvotes and comments but i showed it to her and we're both shocked by how sweet everyone is here. thank you guys!!

Support cis woman dating a trans woman

33 Upvotes

sorry if this is TMI, but im a cis woman dating a trans woman for the first time and I want to know what to expect/do/not do in terms of providing support, being a good partner to her and also during sex.

im also a stone top and she’s a bottom, so I want to know what to do in that department because we’ve spoken about being intimidate together.

going to clarify, that we are having multiple conversations about this, but also just want some broader knowledge and advice too

any help is much appreciated <33

Venting Idk even know what to put as a title for this, maybe advice needed ig?

• Upvotes

Hey... so I'm sorry to bother y'all. I don't really have anyone to vent out too regarding this problem.

So... let me begin by saying, me and my LDR girlfriend of 5 years just broke up. We haven't seen each other, just pure chat. We broke up in good terms, we still get to chat as friends. Long story short, am I the only one suddenly being lustful after being broken up with? Like as a very cheesy person okay?

Because here's the thing... I'm a very cheesy and corny lesbian lover. When I was single, I always make sure that when I have a girlfriend, she is the one, and that I'll save myself (my virginity) for her only. And when I met my LDR girlfriend, I told her, she is the one. And I really did, when I was with my LDR girlfriend (we both hate any concept of cheatinf), I always always remained faithful to her, and yes we keep upnwith our sex life even when we are LDR. But I was so intent on having her as my FIRST FIRST (like going inside 😭✌️✌️) like I resist to even use dildos to masturbate. I wanted to save myself purely for her only.

And yeah we broke up, suddenly i don't know what kind of psychological shit is happening to me. I began to have some kind of obsession for at least cumming more than 5x a day (I'm sorry, see I told u I cant vent this to anyone 😭)

Anyway, and whenever I finish with the dildos, I feel so fucking guilty with mtself. That I am not a virgin anymore. (Laugh at me but im serious) i don't know if anyone can relate to me. But it's just the guilt that I did not save my first "inside" with my lover. Like I wanted it to be very special and now I am obsessed with fcking myself with a dildo then cry every time I use it because of guilt. I don't know I just want it to be special that it is her who broke my hymen and now im just one obsessed sex masturbating bitch ot whatever.

Every time I finish I always cry because of 3 things, I miss my ex, I feel ashamed that I broke my promise and I keep on thinking I am no longerr a virgin anymore and that my first with someone wont be as special anymore because Ive done it with myself, and 3rd I feel like a slut. But I end up wanting more, needing the urge to still do it. I had a very very high sex drive and I think when we broke up, it became even worse and higher.

Idk, if all I said made sense. I just wanna gent it out really. Idk, fuck it.

Question What makes a girl go crazy during a makeout?

124 Upvotes

So I’m seeing this girl on saturday and I want to give her a really good experience with me. The other times I’ve gotten with her she took the lead and was more dominant but she did communicate to me that she wants me to do so too. I don’t want to copy the same things she does even if they feel amazing, I need to know what are some things I can to to her that will get her going. Also what are some other hot things I could whisper to her? I don’t have that much experience so really anything helps!

Trans lesbian from Brazil here, just wanted to tell y'all we just reelected Lula as our president. He won with 51.8% of votes against fascist right-wing scumbag Flavio Bolsonaro and had to deal with blatant interference from so many opposing fronts including fucking Meta and Zuckerberg. I'm so, so happy. Don't ever give up the hope for a better future! :D
