How do I tell my transmasc crush that I am also trans?
me and this boy we have a few classes together during the day and we hangout after school,
he also comes by my family restaurant I work at almost everyday after school .
we are very flirty, we giggle a lot when we see each other and theres obvious tension all the time (and I’m not saying that to be weird like it’s genuinely a feeling that’s unique to us like that’s how I would actually discribe it I’m not trying to be overly dramatic or weird)
he doesn’t know that I am also a trans man,
he’s completely out as trans, all of his friends know and he has told me that he doesn’t really care about passing before and i purposefully t try to talk to him about his transness because I relate a lot to him and he’s the only other trans guy at our school.
we can do this discretely because he’s also the only other guy that can speak Mandarin
its been really cool having someone who I can actually speak to and share my culture with
once we were talking about his trans experience and he called me out on this the other day and he said “why are you alwayss talking about this“ when we were talking about something trans related
even though it was a joke k think he is getting uncomfortable with me talking about it so much, I dont want him to think I am a fetisher or something.
and if I decide not to tell him Ill never be able to relate to him or justify myself for asking so many questions
but what if he doesn’t like me anymore, he’s always talking about how cute he thinks certain cis men are and sending me photos And talking about how muscles are so cute and specifixly talking about things only cis men have when we talk about his huzzes and stuff(as corny as that sounds)
im just kind of lost on how to go about telling him it if I should even tell him at all. It’s so nerve wracking actually thinking about telling him even though he’s trans too it’s kind of hard to explain
let me know if anyone has any opinions on this
