be monogmamous.

get bored of socialising with large groups of people

take a pair of flat shoes with me in a bag when I go out to an event

be accepted for who I am, regardless of my ID and the other person's ID/sexuality. I thought I'd have to fight for my femme-ininity my whole life and now it doesn't matter to anyone, which is utterly fabulous. I just had to move and let time catch up.

not give a flying fuck what other people's beliefs/opinions are. I used to argue. Now I just ignore them/walk away/not bother - on one hand that saves me a lot of energy, on the other it's good to challenge people so it's not great I've lost the will to do so. "fuck off and sit in your own puddle of dimshit, that's your problem" is rather dismissive. But it really does make my life easier. hey ho.
