Would you, I mean if you couldnt fit in or find love?
Would you consider going back into the closest as a transgender.....

Although I am not Transgendered, I do have a comment... I think that not telling your partner about something like this is just like lying...I've been put in the situation where I dated someone who didn't tell me, and I broke up with them BECAUSE they didn't tell me, and I found out other ways, but I have no problem dating anyone in the TG community. I think that there is someone out there for everyone who will love you for every good thing about you and even the flaws, you just have to find that person and honesty is the only way you will.

oh no no no, at least i surely hope i wouldn’t. I believe that there is somebody out there for every one. Just stay true to yourself and be honest with people

In a way I have. I am completely stealth at work and very quiet about it outside of work. It makes life easier, and helps not loose any more jobs over bigotry.

I do have a solid rule about people I'm romantically/sexually interested in though. My rule is that I will tell you I'm trans before I even kiss you. As terrifying as it can be to not do so is to remove their right to say no.

My GF lives "stealth" only a few of our friends "know".

nope

My former partner was mostly stealth, but before we ever started talking even he was very upfront in letting me know that he was trans. I hope that no one who is trans would go back into the closet. It's important to be who you are. There are so many people out there in the world who will love you for who you are.

but you are who you are regardless of whether you have a partner or not.

I wouldn't go back into the closet! I'm not ashamed to admit I am who I am. I mean, I wouldn't introduce myself as such, but if someone asked a question, I would answer truthfully about my history! It's part of who I am, and there is nothing wrong with me being born female, because I am more comfortable now.

For me to go back into the closet, there would have to be some sort of situation where my government is trying to execute me or lock me up or something XP. Coming out the first time was hard enough, I can't do it again @_@! Living stealth, on the other hand, is a very different situation. Regardless, whatever partner at the time will be informed of my trans status. If I don't, they'll eventually notice the lack of penis.

I pretty much am in the closet aside from with a few friends - it just makes things easier.

I actually did for a couple weeks, and I regretted it straight away. I told people that after living for a couple months as male that it wasn't for me, but I was doing it to get my ex back. It didn't work out with him and now that's left me fucked & trying to explain things to everyone again, who now think it's a phase /:

No, how can I expect anyone to love me if I don't love myself? I was miserable in the closet.

It's not lying and no one should have to disclose. Your birth sex should not be relevant at all and people should be allowed to let their partner know when they are ready. If someone broke up with me because I didn't tell them then I wouldn't want to be with them because they don't get it. Disclosure is a personal choice. I'm not proud of my condition and I'm not going to tell a partner as soon as we start getting romantically involved. Once things get sexual disclosure should be given more thought but you still shouldn't have to. I have asthma too but i don't tell that to every potential partner i have.

Non disclosure =/= to lying. I am a man. Saying I am a man is not a lie.

This 100%. Cis people seem to think we owe them something in the way of information about our pasts. Hell, there are even trans people out there who think we should disclose the moment we meet someone who we may become romantically involved with.

Yep. I'd rather be alone for the rest of my life than live a lie to have a unsatisfying relationship (which it would be if I was living a lie in a relationship).
