Aside from dealing with chuds, it seems like a much cooler lifestyle. I'm just too into women unfortunately (trans or Cis, i just like the feminine figure). You guys have fun.

    i can remember a ton of pre-transition interactions with guys that clearly come off as them hitting on me in hindsight and if i'd hook up with any guy i've know as an egg, i'd absolutely ask the same question. would be interesting to find out if that's just me making things up or if there's actually been a ton of straight men that have always treated me different than guys.

      Thanks for chiming in! I had never really seen them as anything beyond a close friend, and didn't pick up on them transitioning (it came as a surprise after they had left town). I guess I'm just wondering like, is this person attracted to me? Not that it would change anything between us, I guess it's just always flattering to feel wanted. We've been talking as usual ever since and that's been fantastic, I just have that moment living in the back of my head, since it's only been a few days since it happened.

        She asked if that put some of our past interactions into new context

        She's been into you for a whiiiiiiiiiiile, love. There's a trope in trans circles (and genderbending fiction) that if you meet your former best friend as your new gender, it'll turn into a super romantic relationship. Not saying that's her expectation, but based on the details given it sounds like there are some fond memories there.

          Do you mind if I DM you about this at a later time? There's one more detail that idk if I'm comfortable posting out in the open, but I very much appreciate the perspective, and would love to talk about it with a 3rd party that doesn't personally know either of us!

          Thanks for sharing that, it does mean a lot, I've just got to play a show tonight and know that within the next like, 30 minutes im probably gonna disappear for the night.
