Sara makes a good point , but for some including me I'm much happier single and not just because I'm cross gendered ,I was married for over 20 years three kids all adults now , although it cost me my house and a lot of money
I'm much happier now ,I have had a girlfriend for the past 14 years who I told from the beginning and made it clear that its part of me and its not going away , we don't live together we both like our own space
She has never seen me dressed she knows I go to my CD clubs dinners and get always but does not know I go out mainstream ,


There are a lot of Trans groups around with really nice people that have get together s so you may check that out ,
I have never told my family about me they may know ,if they do they don't let on I guess they will find out one day
We are all different only you can decide whats right for you good luck
