Dear Katie,
I know that you are possibly not going to read replies here, because you've stated your decision to leave clearly enough. It is interesting coincidence that just few days ago I've read several articles about trajectories of transwomen after transition - they either disappear and become "fabric of the society", because only by fully assimilating as women they are able to fully experience feminine gender role, or they stick with the community and become mentors. You've made your decision... I think that for people following your posts it was apparent that live your live as a woman is something you truly wish and one was able to suspect which path would you choose.
I have to tell that lately I begin to understand your yearnings and I also understand your decision. I really wish you to be happy and live full and successful life as a woman.
On the other side, it would really be nice if you make some kind of follow up in few months. You know, younger and less experienced trans-people and especially blossoming transwomen really need some kind of positive role models and advices from people further on the journey. As you know, being transgendered, not being fully aware of our gender issues, is confusing and painful. I think many would profit from seeing positive outcomes...
Anyway, once again, good luck! And be happy!
