    My name is Rob but I would really like to be Jenni. I am a married man with children. My family has no idea that I really want to transition into a woman. This is very painful as I feel it's to late for me. I know my wife would be devastated and I couldn't do that to her. If I never got married I would have transitioned long ago. I just wish I knew that 30 years ago. I drive a truck over the road and that's where I spend my time dressed up. I just want to make friends I don't have to hide who I really am. It hurts not be able to tell anyone.

    Hi, you introduced yourself as Rob, but said you would rather be Jenni, so that's what I will call you, if you prefer. We all will, if that's your preference. Maybe a simple thing like that will make a lot of difference to you?

    You can be who you want to be here and you can talk to other members who are in the same position as you. We have a specific area dedicated to gender identity and expression and it may help to pop over there, read some of the recent/archived posts and just say how you feel and where you'd like to go from here.

    Don't bottle things up. This is a safe place to explore things and be open about your feelings.
