gents...as i'm relatively new to this community, i'm wondering how many of you have had a real relationship with a ts. or has most of your time been primarily with escorts?

so far i've only been with a couple escorts but since joining HA my infatuation has been evolving and i am very interested in dating for true intimacy...

have any of you developed relationships with ladies from this site? or from parties you heard from here?

thanks mates!

I've dealt with a few escorts, and a few TG women I met here and there. I in no way present myself as an authority, but I do have some experience, albeit limited.

I was in a relationship with a tgirl for two years (it wasn't my first either); its no different from any other, you go out to dinner, the movies, shopping, you stay at home and do laundry, ironing etc etc, and you worry about infidelity, money, jobs, etc etc, unless you are unlucky and hit a girl who is dysfunctional and obsessed with having her body morphed, its really no different from any other relationship.

Very true. When I first started dating my GF I thought wow, this will be a lot cheaper than seeing escorts. The reality is that I spend a lot more now, on tuition, books for school, rent, visits to the doctor, etc. But now I don't feel like I am wasting any money. I have a girl who truly loves me and I am helping her grow as a person. I don't see her every day as I am away working for weeks at a time. When we are together though, the best part is planning a meal and then going to the grocery store, or finding a new restaurant to check out and having a romantic dinner. Really just having a normal life.

never been with a escort and never would.not knocking it,but just would not feel right.
never even kissed a ts,i do like 1 ts girl ,who i talk to,but i think we will only ever be friends as i doubt very much i"m her type and she is about to start seeing someone i believe,but still really value her friendship.
would i have ever date another ts who i meet in the future?not got a clue to be honest.

I had a ts "friend with benefits" for a while, but we just didn't have enough in common other than sex. She liked R&B and show tunes. I like industrial, alternative, and techno. She liked romantic comedies. I like action adventure and sci-fi. Ah well, it was an interesting experience.

I've dated many t-girls (with no issues going out in public whatsoever), the longest was for 1.5 years.

Unfortunatly, its very, very difficult meet an intellectual/educated tgirl around DC. I've looked, but what can you do? Maybe one day.

Sad but true. I live in Maryland right outside of DC, so I feel your pain.

I have been in two relationships over the last 13 years. One lasted 7 years the other lasted 4. I loved them both. Don't get mad at me PLEASE but transsexuls tend to be so damaged by all the shit they go through in life. The straight world will only accept them in the rarest of instances and they're treated like the stepchild of the gay community. Even the nice ones become so jaded by the time they hit 30 that's it's damn near impossible to develop a trusting relationship with her unless you share a history that goes way back.

Like I said, don't get offended. I love them to death but can you please find a preferred profession other than ESCORTING? Is that like a requisite for being a transsexual???? I think so much more of them than that.

Don't think escorting is the "preferred" profession of many TS girls, just the career choice of least resistance.

It takes allot of nerve, courage and guts to put one's self out there 24/7 as "female" and then spend those same hours trying hard to "pass", and the while wondering if you really are. Been there and done that and am here to tell you it is NOT fun.

Think the girls today, especially the young ones see what is going on in the community and go with it, and of course there are some with the mentality of why should they slog their guts out making $400 or so a week (if lucky), when they can make that much per hour hoeing.

True, in my experience, all around. Once they've escorted, you're hard pressed to have a relationship with them, either because they're still escorting, making it hard on you emotionally, or because they're so anti-men, making it harder on you in the same respect.

Of course, there are exceptions I am aware of, such as Allanah. However, I would tend to think this is a rarity based on my personal experiences, which I have already acknowledged previously are not what I would call extensive by any means.

Yes, two different girls. One for 6 months and one for a year. Both ended badly but most relationships do.
