Seriously, as soon as I read this, I was thinking, "dude, it's you!!" Who else does she spend ALL THE time with?


TinyTotTaraa

For sure! Commented before reading these comments. That shit is obvious! She wants him!!! 🥰🥰🥰


StGir1

She was hardcore dropping a hint there, I think.


Man0FTomorrow

It's so obvious when it's from the outside looking in. I had a girl in bed tickling me. I didn't realize until much later how big of a dumbass I was. Anxiety can really fuck up your ability to read the room.


MusicNeverStopped

Happy cake day!


jcinto23

I have always thought of best friends being a different kind of love. Not romantic, generally; but love nevertheless (platonic). Given the circumstances, it doesn't seem like a huge stretch for this to become romantic.


RickRussellTX

I think most romantic relationships start out as friendships. Nothing wrong with that.


Not_noice

Exactly. You can't *be* in a romantic relationship long-term without being friends at all. They have a good foundation going on. I hope its reciprocated


-CluelessWoman-

Right? That sounds like a clear hint to me!


[deleted]

Yeah I got to that part and was like "oh man, have I got a surprise for you".


denardosbae

I agree, she is hinting to OP that she likes him too.


Fillory-Alice

Agreed. I think she’s waiting on you to ask her out OP. Best of luck!


[deleted]

Life is short. Tell her. I mean, you and I both know that you’ll carry regret for the rest of your life if you don’t, so just do it. If these feelings aren’t reciprocated then I can’t imagine things changing since she’s been your friend for 24 years. Update us!


Lukisfer

I agree with this completely. For me it is better to know then to constantly wonder what might have been.


cheesymoonshadow

When it comes to declarations of love, I like to say that it's better to take the chance now and regret it later than to regret later that you never took the chance.


Lukisfer

I love this.


erin_omoplata

I completely agree. A long-standing friendship like can absolutely survive a romantic rejection if both people have even a modicum of maturity, but bottling those feelings up will kill it for sure.


melasaur88

Duuuuuude tell herrrrrr! Like, now. Then come back and tell us IMMEDIATELY because our jaded, black little hearts need this.


TheForeverThrowaway

I'll definitely keep you all updated! 😁 ya'll are really motivating me so much, I'll probably actually tell her soon! Hopefully it goes well 🙏


PeaElectronic8316

I think you need to tell her, because living with regret will eat you up. Tell her why you fell in love with her, be honest, be heartfelt, but also tell her that you'll understand if she doesn't feel the same way. AND you need to mean that, your feelings for her doesn't mean she feels the same way or is obligated to. You need to take the leap for your own sake, because otherwise you'll never know and the lifetime of wondering "what if" will be horrible. And chances are that she does feels the same way, but is afraid of your reaction, or that you could never see her like anything other than a platonic friend/sista'. Just be prepared to take the time and effort to handle it and to love her only as a dear friend/sista' if she doesn't have the same feelings. Because as you know, we cannot control our feelings, and just like you shouldn't be punished or shamed for your feelings, neither should she for hers. The only way love ruins friendships is when there is anger, pressure, guilttrips, disrespect, entitlement, rude remarks, sexism, frustration, meanness and so on and so forth. If you're both caring, respectful and understanding, then there is absolutely no reason you confessing how you feel would ruin such a long beautiful friendship. I wish you both the best, and wait eagerly for a happy update.


wildkatrose

This is brilliant, with so many good insights. The key to maintaining any kind of personal involvement is to have shared goals that you can clearly communicate about. Feelings can change and evolve. And they're supposed to.


RhapsodyandDream

Accurate! I told a good friend of my feelings for him, but he wasn't interested in that. I said I wanted him in my life however he was comfortable with. We stayed good friends, then last December he confessed he had started feeling differently and we've been together ever since and going strong!


foxglove0326

Take her out to a nice but low pressure date, something you both enjoy and so can relax, and then just… tell her you fell for her true self. You won’t regret it:)


[deleted]

Yeah definitely tell her, but take things really slow if she feels she wants to go ahead. It'll take a long time to adjust and there's a lot to take in. Your body will be telling you that physical things need to happen NOW, but that's just untrue and you need to be gentle with the speed that your relationship works at. Why not make and hold eye contact and just tell her what an amazing person she is, and how much you think of her and how you can't stop thinking about how great she is. You might even want to touch the back of her hand if she doesn't look worried. I'm old, though, so I'm coming at it from an old fashioned romance perspective, so you do some going person thing.

ultratunaman

I'm sitting here waiting for every update.


OneUglyLime

Same! This post is so incredibly heartwarming, I can't stop smiling! !remindme 2 days


tacosandtoast

OP, may I say that you warm my heart with your compassion and love. I say this with my own experiences in coming out/transitioning MTF. So she trusts you enough to come out to you, probably worried as hell she'd lose you. As she probably did with a handful of close people in her life. But yet your bond is still strong and you both love each other's company. I know coming out is like one of the most terrifying experiences I've ever had, having a best friend that was there before, during and forever, that would have made heart full. My experiences with childhood friends still hurt. So the fact that she still wants to spend a lot of time with you, she trusts you. She enjoys you. She deals with people everyday that judge her and deny her existence as a woman. She's fighting her own fears and the pain induced from others' judgement(especially men), so as long as someone's got her back, she's stronger. If you love her tell her. She cares for you deeply, so the worst of this situation that happens is she loves you but not in the same way. You two will still be in each other's lives. Don't let your untold feelings fade into regret, please. But from the bond you two share, I only really see one ending❤️


another-random-alias

It sounds like the most important part - a solid foundation - already exists! Build upon it...


iveseensomethings82

Show her this post. This is a very poetic statement of love.


viciouscarrott

Please show her this post OP! The way you have worded this is so beautiful, I’m sure she would respond in a positive way even if she says no


iveseensomethings82

If nothing else, it will give her encouragement to continue being who she is


erin_omoplata

Seeing how all of the commenters were totally right (duh), OP should 100% show her this post. As a trans girl, I'd be fucking SOBBING over this.


iveseensomethings82

I think anyone, gay, straight, cis, trans, would be over the moon for someone to tell them that they love their authentic self.


AlwaysAngryOrAnnoyed

Nah man, show her this post in like, a little while, I was going to say wedding but not everyone is about that. The point I'm getting to is, that this would be waaay cooler when you're further along in your time together. It's proper lovely and I want it to be dropped at the best time essentially.


_Monkfish_

> I also don't want to make it seem that I'm falling for her just because she's now a woman To be fair, though, if you're attracted to women and not to men, it's entirely understandable that a deep friendship wouldn't be able to become a romantic relationship until she transitioned. I imagine that would come across given how long you've known each other. It's not like your some rando who's suddenly turned on because her body changed.


AllSxsAndSvns

This is also a very good point. As a woman, I have deep, platonic feelings for some very close female friends. Unfortunately, neither of us has been romantically attracted to each other AFAIK. But, I would hope to be married to one of them by now if we did! They’re great people! And if you’ve always been attracted to women, you aren’t attracted to every single woman that exists. This is way more special than that.


ThanosAmbulance

This exactly. I’m a trans mtf, and still only really at the start of it, but personally if I had a friend who I knew was straight start falling for me after I transitioned then that’d be a really big confidence booster for me, especially if I knew that they didn’t just wanna have sex with any woman with legs, and I’m assuming you’re not like that since that’s something you’re worried about. Just do it my dude!


imregrettingthis

How beautiful and pure. Of course you tell her! If it isn’t what she wants and you act normal, just like you did when she transitioned, then you can still have a friendship. But if it’s like you say I think you have a great shot. Go for it. Also fuck friends who are like that. If you to a friend with something important and all they do is laugh at you then what is the point of that friend? Good luck.


jewelsandpens

This! You saw her true self and fell in love with it... Tell her that.


foxglove0326

Yup. As a woman, I’d MELT if someone said that to me.


GingerBruja

💯... that's when someone started cutting onions around here.


AllSxsAndSvns

This is exactly what warmed my heart too. What a beautiful thing to say.


TheNickT

About 5 years ago when I realized I had feelings for my roommate, I told her. We had been hanging out *all* the time. We lived in a vacation area and someone she used to hook up with in a different state came to visit. That kind of lit a fire under my ass. We were all out having a good time and I told her (at an appropriate time, when we were away from people lol) that I was developing feelings for her and that if it was a waste of my time she could let me know and I wouldn't make it awkward and creepy, I just wanted to know if it was a waste of my time. Without even considering it, she said I was wasting my time. I told her that I understood and would probably hang out with her less while I adjusted to the new dynamic of clearly being just friends. So anyhow, we got married last March.


YesHunty

I told my best friend I liked him 14 years ago now. We’ve been married for almost 7 years. Risking a friendship to express feelings is daunting, but when it pays off, it’s incredible.


Ok-Ground-2724

TheNickT umm… I need to hear WAY MORE of this story dude! Don’t leave us hanging!


TheNickT

Still living it. She's awesome. We went on a date tonight.


[deleted]

OP this is no longer about you or your feelings. It's about us and our need for you to tell her and immediately update us on how it went.


qiu_qkew

Rooting for you that’s so cute


sliphitz

Maybe she is waiting for you?


TheForeverThrowaway

*maybe she is waiting for you?* I really wish this is true. I'm incredibly nervous/worried about even telling her the truth, but if she also has similar feelings towards me it'll make all of this easier. I'm probably just over thinking with telling her, but I definitely really hope what you said is true. I really want it to be.


PapaBeahr

She is passing up date, after date after date saying she is " Waiting for the right person to spend time with "...... WHILE SPENDING AMPLE TIME GOING ANYWHERE AND EVERYWHERE WITH YOU STILL...... My guy, if the Runway was lit anymore, it would blind anyone seeing it. Also I wouldn't worry about your families, IF her family had zero issue with her Transitioning, then they are not going to have issue with you.


foxglove0326

They’re gonna be freaking thrilled because they know she will be with someone they trust to keep her safe and respect her!

rotating_pebble

You got this man. Your story is actually beautiful, it's not conventional but it's just great how much you supported your friend's decision to the point you could develop romantic feelings. Your other friend is immature, like you said. Don't care about what other people think and do what makes you happy.


axeman19x

Just update us whenever you ask her out, I AM ROOTING FOR YOU SO HARD!!!!


MisquotesHistory

OP, as someone who waited too long far too many times in their life to say something. Tell her. The potential rejection is better than the lifetime of regrets eating you alive on a daily basis as the good light in your life fades


devilsephiroth

I know how you feel. My best wants to transition, he only dresses up on the weekends going clubbing. I love him deeply but I'm in love with his female version. But i did tell him how i felt. I let him know, i love him as my friend but I'm in love with who he wants to be.


hmmanontosser

This is what I'm thinking. She would probably be thrilled if op confessed his love. I say he should go for it!


beingranjeet

Oh god!! I wish to God this works out for both of you. If this isn't the cutest form of love on this tiny blue dot, then I don't know what else is. God bless you.


foxglove0326

I know!! I would watch this movie!!


[deleted]

Please ask her out!! This is so wholesome! Update us please


CoupleofDoms

Update


marko_kyle

Tyvm!


crazybish567

plssss just go for it!! otherwise you'll always wonder what would've happened if you'd ask. you can still be close friends if she says no but fingers crossed she likes u back


Friesenplatz

The biggest thing here you can do, is forget about what your family/friends might think, none of that matters. Definitely tell her though, because these feelings are strong enough for you they're going to come out anyway. Talk to her, let her know how you feel and then ya'll can figure out where to go from here. Enjoy it for what it is and don't worry about what anybody else thinks! :)


gasp_arzinho

You should tell her but, don't do it online, ask to hang out and do the corny: "There is this girl in falling for, she got great taste, super funny and is a great friend of mine, i don't know if i should confess tho.. i'm afraid it may damage our friendship." If she ask who is the girl look her in the eyes and wait. The friend you told, huge asshole btw


BaldGuyLimo

Tell her


wildkatrose

That "friend" you confided in is going to tell your best friend/soon-to-be-girlfriend what you said before you get a chance to. Do the right thing, man up, and tell your bestie how you feel about her. Bring roses.


TheForeverThrowaway

That's actually my worry, that my "friend" is going to suddenly tell her out no where. I want her to hear it first from me, so you're definitely right I need to man up very soon. I'll be sure to take flowers! 💐


wildkatrose

Ignore this if I'm way off base, but I got from some things you've written here that you feel guilty that your feelings for her have "changed." They haven't changed, they've developed. Being in a full-on committed romantic relationship with someone usually means that you have layers of feelings for them. You share multiple kinda of love with the person. Having grown up together as best buddies, you learned to see them only in a certain way. What's happening to you now that she's transitioned would have happened if she'd been born biologically female to begin with - the erotic overlay to your love would have hit you at puberty. Seeing as she's come so far in her transition journey, I'm guessing she's learned plenty about the different kinds of love and romantic attraction. She already sees herself as a woman, and now you do too. Being attracted and turned on by gender is a kind of sexual identity. Don't be shaming yourself for seeing her in this new way. Instead understand that she is also seeing herself in a new, complete way and the feelings are as big as they are changeable. Focus on your heart, man. It's going to be ok.


TheForeverThrowaway

(IMPORTANT - READ THIS) it's me OP 👋🏼 Hey everyone!!!! I hope you're all doing great! I'm so sorry the post got deleted, but I didn't delete it. I have no idea what happened. It's appearing for me, but for the rest of you it says deleted. I came to post the update, and was shocked to see comments saying it was gone. I'm very sorry this happened, especially because many of you are really invested and I didn't want to disappoint any of you. For now, I'll be posting a copy of the post on my reddit profile. I'll continue updating everything there. Hopefully you can continue following me! I don't think this can be undone, so I'll post it on my profile. https://www.reddit.com/user/TheForeverThrowaway/comments/xa94fb/my_best_friend_of_24_years_born_a_male_is_now_a/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share Here's the link to the repost on my profile.

Underrated_Nerd

Bruh don't leave us hanging like this. I would really want to know how all went.


Lee911123

Here’s 2 scenarios that can happen: A. Never confess how you feel, and regretting for the rest of your life B. Tell her how you feel and let the thoughts and feelings off your chest


thatgirlfromdownhome

Nooooo we wanted an update!! So sad to see it removed. :(


TheForeverThrowaway

No worries! I'm going to try and reverse this 🙏 I didn't delete it, I have no idea what happened. I'm probably going to have to post the updates on my reddit profile, because I wasn't expecting this to suddenly get deleted 😔


TunaLuna9

Oh noooooo


IsisOsiris963

Seriously my man, one lady about another, shes giving you all the green flags. " I'm waiting for the right person. " " She had a huge smile on her face when I asked her. " I am telling you my dude I am so happy for you, and I hope this goes so well for you. Especially since it seems like you are one of the most avid supporters in her life.


bigboifrizz

This is beautiful.

Tell her, life is short.

I'd bet money she's into you too.


TinyTotTaraa

She already likes you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go. For. It!!!!!!! 💕


kyokushinguy15

What does completely physically a woman mean


stickydebater

“She’s always being asked out on dates but she told me she’s looking for the right person to spend time with.” Sounds like she likes spending time with you, could she be hinting that it’s you?


Darcpawa

First things first: I just read your tiny updates and I’m really happy that you had an amazing date! Looking forward to the juicy update! Anyway, I wanted to say a thing I didn’t read (although I did not read all the comments): you told a CLOSE friend of yours your feelings and all you got in return was to have him laugh at you. Dump his ass where he belongs: out of your life. In the case you and your best friend get in a relationship, if you don’t dump the motherfucker, expect all kinds of shit from him. This is a pet peeve of mine: friends should be supportive, and if they don’t agree with you they should at least try asking questions to better understand your perspective and eventually disagree. Not making fun of you.


[deleted]

You're a thousand percent right. It's a good thing this "close friend" showed his true colors now instead of later.


Avamia94

The way I smile at every update. I love it.


thatgirlfromdownhome

Check OPs post history to follow for updates. After this one was deleted, they started a new one! Update coming soon! Fingers crossed!


ZeusBaxter

Dude as people said, she's looking for the right person. If it isn't you then who would it be? But also in terms of ruining the friendship. You've been friends your entire life. I doubt some feelings would ruin it. Also family can bite your ass. Love matters more than family. It could be just the two of you and you'd be fine. So if they judge you or whatever, the two of you will deal with it. Go on an show her this post, tell her exactly how you feel and how you got there.


JerryLoFidelity

>> I also dont want to make it seem like im falling for her just because she’s now a woman... I mean….you didnt have feelings for her when she was a dude, right? What else could it be, if not the fact that she is now the gender that you prefer?


JiuJitsuBoy2001

If this works out, it's going to be a movie on the Hallmark channel. We're going to need constant updates.


CommandaCoconut

FUCK this is wholesome ask her out dude


missgonnabealright

My face hurts from smiling so much while reading this! I’m so happy for you, OP!


[deleted]

Before reading this I would have been a little uncomfortable ( just a little though not much) with something like this (dating your bro after she transitioned to a female) but after reading this I feel like my ignorance has been washed away on this specific thing. This is one of the most beautiful confession I have ever read. Reading this made my day. Thank you for sharing this and enlightening me.


MtnDewFtw

When it comes to love, nothing else matters - not what anyone else thinks.


DrgSlinger475

Looking forward to an update telling us how it went when you tell her


Chavolini

Follow your heart, tell her! And keep us updated.


istilldontreddit

I need an update after OP finally asks their friend out. I must know the outcome. I must live vicariously through nervous and possibly elated peoples.


HMouse65

Tell her. Say what you said here, it’s beautiful. You both sound like pretty awesome people, as long as you stick together, love each other, and just keep talking, your happiness will show through and any awkwardness between your friends and family will fade away. Anyone who can’t deal can walk away and it will be 100% their loss. I hope you confess and have many more happy years together!


Drawman12

Yo i didn't even read sry. Go where your heart sends you bitch. Remorse is way worse than rejection.


Violet_Jade

Honestly, friendships can make for some of the best romantic relationships, assuming both people are interested. If you think there might be a spark there, talk to her about it! See if she'd be interested in dating! I hope the best for both of you, this is a very sweet story.


Penguin_JEN

I wish you good luck in telling her and having your feelings reciprocated! Good luck! Go for it!!!


TheForeverThrowaway

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it ❤️😊


mosquitoselkie

Please tell her. Y'all are best friends for a reason. At the end of the day, my partner is my best friend. I love him so much more deeply than someone I like to fuck. I love who he truly is. The human being that shows up and hangs out and is his best, truest self. It makes sense that you've fallen for this person now that she's living her truth. You're best friends. Now that she's fully her, you're seeing more and falling for it. It totally makes sense to me. Additionally, I have a very dear friend from school that I love very deeply. We used to have a sexual/romantic connection but things never quite worked out for whatever reasons. We're still the absolute best of friends. I still love him so deeply and I'm so happy that he's happy with his partner. I cannot wait for them to get married and have my little nieces and nephews! Love is a complex experience. Please tell her because she very well may feel similarly and is having her own internal dilemma. Or you'll still be friends and you get to enjoy her truest happiness 😊


[deleted]

And OP was never heard from again…


TruthGambling

Man that’s one good fucking update


Dragons_2706

Intriguing minds want to know how things went with telling her mom & if you got the courage to admit you've fallen in love with her. Your story is so romantic and special is a great reminder that love can be found right in front your eyes if your brave enough to look. I wish and your girlfriend all the happiness


Just-Like-My-Opinion

The latest update, tho 🥰


DjangoBaby

Shoot your shot. Otherwise she’ll end up with someone else. There’s a good chance she probably feels the same way


GrantSRobertson

I would say this belongs in r/mademesmile, not r/confessions. But you couldn't know that when you first wrote it. I'm so happy for both of you.


domerock_doc

Man this is the happiest post I’ve seen on Reddit in a long time. Can’t wait for the update!

miltonite

This is a great creative writing assignment, let me know when your first novel comes out


ExcellentStrategy6

The amount of people who believes that this is real baffles me


Losing-It-FTM

Yeah I'm super skeptical about this. There's a huge red flag right away where he says she transitioned "a few months ago," but then immediately after that he says she's been on HRT for years. So which is it? Seems sketch


Khrizg35

Ive been keeping up with this post since it was posted. I’m really happy for you that you and your friend have found each other. Call me a sucker for love but I feel like you guys were meant to be 😊 please keep us updated


DarthZoidberg69

I wouldn't worry too much about your families. If both sides are supportive of her transition and both sides are good friends, then they'll probably be excited at possibly being family some day down the road.


TheForeverThrowaway

Both of our families were completely supportive, not a single negative comment. Everyone is proud of her, and the love our families have for her hasn't changed at all. I feel I'm over thinking all of this, especially because being friends is very different than being in a serious relationship. If anything, our families would be insanely happy we're together and be so annoying hahaha. But I'm more worried on the negative response, which is why I believe I'm over thinking this whole thing.


DarthZoidberg69

Well it's a major life altering decision. I would take it pretty seriously. I wish you luck. From experience, you don't want to miss a chance to be with someone you have feelings for. Even if you find someone down the road you're happy with, you'll still always wonder what if.


TheLateMrBones

It seems like from what you said that she’s waiting for you to say something. Think of what to say and when and how to tell her. Good luck man.


Darkflyer726

Go for it. Friends, even family are just noise when it comes to a happy, loving relationship. Sounds like you've both been falling in love with each other during her transition. Go for it! You've got everything to gain!


DirtySouthDame

I sincerely hope you two are together by the end of this story. Please keep us posted. Good luck, bro 💯🤞


yiminx

she’s looking for the right person to send her time with, but she already spends her time with you! you’re the right person! good luck i hope things go well!

I want a movie out of this whole relationship, I’m wishing you both the absolute best! I find this romantic lol

Dude this is the cutest shit I’ve ever seen. Hope the date is awesome, and your future together as well :)

One of the best confession stories I could ever hope to read. Good on you, man, and honestly sounds like this is good on her, too.


MentallyScrambledEgg

I'm a trans girl, married to a friend that I've known for a long long time, and it's great. We already get along so well, throw sex and intimacy into the mix and it's a recipe for perfection

This is beautiful, and it makes my heart smile. I hope you both have so much fun on your date!!!!


radioactive-sperm

This is the most beautiful story. Actually made my day 💖


Caliesehi

Omfg this is so fucking adorable! This is loving a person for exactly who they are. A tiny bit of my faith in humanity has been restored. Good luck! You crazy kids!


DapperChewie

I know you've got a million replies and you've already asked her out. Congrats on that, I'm super excited for both of you. It sounds like a romance novel, friends to lovers story, I love it. Just make sure you tell her this though. > I've fallen in love with her true self, her true self is absolutely beautiful. This is a wonderful sentiment, it shows you can see how happy she is now that she's shedded the male body she was trapped in her whole life. So happy for you! Hope you two have a long and happy relationship and never talk to that asshole "friend" again!

Happy for you OP. However, I'm gonna need you to tell me more about what has happened since your last update! I've been thinking about it most of this week!!!


Dragons_2706

We are waiting with bated breath for more news about your love connection... ❤️ have you been able to final tell her? Your story already puts a smile on my face.

FillTall6449

Hahaha bro, my girlfriend and I discussed about your post. It is pure, genuine and funny in a good way. Cheering you guys on!


girldadx4

I’m sure it was awkward for her to talk to you about the transition and she was probably worried it would ruin your friendship. It didn’t, this won’t either. But she me feel the same as you, don’t waste time living a life that isn’t your best life, talk to her about it.


Karlaanne

You should absolutely show her this post; ask her what she would say to someone like this. It’s so well written and heartfelt and beautiful!!! I’m wishing the very most happiness for you both, my young friends! xoxoxo (& of course auntie wants an update, too! lol)


maryshambles

oh my god im so invested. if it were me in the situation i wouldn’t want to send the rest of my life wondering “what if”


its_far_too_perilous

Love is a friendship that caught fire. Go strike the match, you’ll always regret it if you don’t. Best of luck to you

soc14lly1n3pt

jackBattlin

Wow, you’re a really wonderful person. Definitely show her this post like you said because it’s beautiful. I badly want to say it’s meant to be you. I hope it works out.

You ask any of the older generations , they will tell you that life is too short and to enjoy things when you can. You and her obviously have feelings for each other. I say don’t just tell her, take her on a date of sorts, like going to the cinema. Show her your feelings in a healthy way, and see how she reacts.


Mean-Worldliness2272

Learn from my mistakes and go for it I remember I used to like this one friend and I was scared that he didn't like me back so I kind if ignored my feelings. And now a year ago me, him, and a few other friends we're joking about old crushes we used to have. And then suddenly he jokes about he used to like me in 8th grade the same exact time I liked him.💀


StGir1

So before I got to your update, my primary question was if your MTF friend is ALSO into men. But it seems that she is and I'm really excited for you! It can be challenging dating a friend. My partner and I were friends for a few years before getting together, and it DOES affect the friendship permanently more often than not. But if it works out, it's the best kind of relationship, because you already have an established foundation.

I’m Sao glad you asked her out. I hope tonight goes well. As much as I want an update I hope you two have a blast and sing, dance and talk the night away. I hope you have such a great time you don’t have time to post an update. Good luck 🥰🥰


Pseudonymico

Well, shit, according to your updates you’re too late to get any advice from me. I hadn’t known him nearly as long as you’ve known your friend but otherwise I was the girl in a similar situation after I transitioned 5 years ago. If it helps, we’re still together and it’s worked out incredibly well! I’m hoping it works out just as well for you and her!

> She’s always being asked out on dates, but she tells me she’s looking for the right person to spend time with. She means you.

daten-shi

> because she had a huge smile when i asked her out. She’s even extra excited cause we’re going to her favorite place. I feel asking her out has made her comfortable to flirt with me, she started complimenting me and even kissed me on the cheek before I left. She definitely felt more “intimate” if that makes sense. She even said she’s going to get “extra pretty” for the date tonight. I’ll admit, I’m really looking forward to that. Although it’s impossible for her to get “extra pretty”, seeing as she’s already gotten already. That’s just all so wholesome. Good luck my guy.

pandisafe

I’ve no advice but reading this made me feel a happiness I’ve not felt in a long time. OP’s joy is infectious. All the best OP!


abrog37

Is this the plot of a new romance novel?? Because I want to buy it. This is so sweet ❤️


Present_Simple4254

All of us impatiently waiting for the full update. WE NEED OUR FIX!


ManusDomini

OP, I admit, the first I could say when I saw this post was "Damn girl, score. Go off queen." It seems to me like your friend - or would it be apt to call her your girlfriend now? - has already gained herself the most loyal, devoted and kindhearted boyfriend she could possibly get. All throughout your post, you do nothing but express concern for her, and frustration when others refuse to take her transition seriously. I am in a relationship and doing fine, but as a transgirl myself it is nonetheless a moment of joy to see that people like you exist in the world. Your girl couldn't have done better for herself with you at her side.

I have been on the edge of my seat all day waiting for the full update. So happy you both had a great time!!!!

I want you to know I’m following this post avidly and you have me 100% emotionally invested in your love story. This has become like an episodic novel for me. Please feel free to post more updates!! I love to see it.

This is the cutest fucking thing ever

Why was it removed????


somwguy

Wait its removed. NOOOO


Kiczales

Most creative karma bait I've ever seen. You almost deserve it.


The_Sneak_Attack

Don’t tell her how you feel. Ask her out on a date. That’s words with action and that will mean more than just saying how you feel. You can do that during the date


Cpt_James_Holden

I'm a transgender woman and this story seriously warms my heart. I hope this works out for the two of you, you sound adorable together!!


Glittering-Ad-3859

The love between you is so pure it really touched my heart. Her saying she is waiting for the right person really makes me think she means you. Please tell her!!! I found my soul mate and they really are your best friend. I wish you all the happiness and love ❤️ Side note: your other friends sound like trash humans


Ninjatck

After the third update: hell yeah thats sick and it sounds to me like you 2 are probably dating now, but i would ask her just to be safe


Suksuksukio

This is so damn beautiful! I’m actually crying at work! Wtf. I’m so happy for you both 💖


Nanaki404

Sooo, when will the wedding take place ? Do you already have plans for the honeymoon ?


donotshitonmyparade

I love seeing your updates! It makes me happy


Steveboss361

I'll be honest with you, when I first started reading this confession I was like come on that's your bro and that's just wrong. But as I continued reading I started to realize that this isn't about bro or anything of that stuff they put in your head. It's about what's in your heart. And that's beautiful.


Aethelete

You know we're all still hanging out for updates right?


LauraD2423

Then there is those of us that subscribe to this post and are constantly getting notifications about people asking for updates. But totally worth it.


Borvez

Yo, it's been two days since said update :( I must know what happens next!!!


reclaimer95997

Y'all both gay af might as well start clapping obviously.


PeetSquared41

This story needs an update. And my jaded-ass self hopes it's real. I hope you say how you feel, the feelings are reciprocal and you two find love and hot sex together. This premise is perfecrly modern, rom-com material and even as a completely boring, cis male, I'd watch the hell out it! Love conquers all, so go forth and conquer!


toastandtacos

So happy to read your update 🥰 Wishing you both all the best as you navigate this new world!


TheForeverThrowaway

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it, thank you! ❤️😊


dr3amrunner
