Conversation at work today


KarenPayne

1,801 views

To start off I take a break every hour at work, walk down three stories, head outside for a few minutes then back to work. Although we have three elevators many uses the stairs and with that I pass several people that I don't know (we have over 1,000 employees). This one lady stopped me several weeks ago whom I have never spoken to before were the conversation was everyday stuff.

This morning she stopped me again and at one point said she never said anything before to me when I was male was because I appeared unapproachable, distant and never smiled. She then said since I transitioned she noticed no male traits and that I am always the complete opposite from when I was male. In the conversation I told her about me being wrapped up in doing executive security and teach self-defense may very well have contributed to my demeanor coupled with being unhappy as a male. She told me that I was handsome as a male and pretty as a female. So I pulled out my current and former driver license. She stared at them and said "you know you look so much younger now" and I said I believe it's the hormones plus good genes.

So I walked away from this I believe with a new friend who spoke frankly to me.

While writing the above it reminded me of last Friday when I had a first time voice lesson. During the introduction she observed all feminine traits I had and actually pointed them all out which made me happy as I make no conscious effort to do so. I have to say my first impression after our hour was up was, she is perfect for me and there was so forward motion too. Now with that I can see where I want to be and there is indeed work ahead but she said compared to other trans clients I was doing much better than others but stressed in the beginning it will be mentally difficult working with the various aspects of "the voice".

Hiya Karen. It does indeed seem like You have made a New Friend at work. It also seems like You are already doing well with the voice lesson's. Karen, since I have known You here, which is well over half a year now, You have done so many positive thing's. Karen, Take a Long Hard Look at Yourself, in a Full-Length Mirror, and say to Yourself, I Am Very Proud Of Me. Because Karen, You Can Be Very Proud of Yourself. You are a Very Pretty, Beautiful, Young Lady, Who has done so well since G.R.S. You are a Very Lovely Lady, someone whom I Am Very Proud to Call A Friend, albeit through TGGuide.

Looking unaproachable as a male has much resonance with myself, your first paragraph pretty much parallels my experience.............So glad I transitioned, it was such a relief, I hated myself, I just couldn't carry on living like that.

Hiya Eve. I Am so glad that I Am Transitioning. Again, like You, I had always hated living life in the Wrong Gender. My Proper Life, My Female Life, has made Me so much Happier, and Contented. I have always Hated My " M " Part's. I have always wished that when I go to sleep at night, that I would wake up in the morning with Female Parts instead. I Know this Is The Gender Dysphoria. So I Know that I Am Definitely on the right track by Transitioning. So many people have told Me, that I have been far more approachable, since I started Transitioning, over 9 Month's ago, because I Am a Much Calmer, and Happier Person. Eve, I hope that thing's are going well for You. Have a Great Weekend. Good Health, Take Care, And My Very Best Wishes, Love Stephanie. xx
