I don't have concrete advice for you since I'm not in a relationship and weren't when coming out. But this

Since I might be more gender fluid or non-binary, technically, I’d personally be fine “coping” with myself as I am if that was her preference (I mean this sincerely) if otherwise our relationship would end – I value her more than I value my “identity”, if that makes sense.

will probably change with time now that you started questioning your gender identity. You can't put that back into a box.

Happy to hear that :)

Your friends will have to process this as well, give them time :).

And it's never too late to realise that. I don't know how old you are but I came out like 1 month before my 31st birthday.

The first few hours will be agony because of basically every thought rushing through your head but it will feel so liberating afterwards.

I liked the results I saw and their use of the hybrid/combined technique.

I don't know if I'm taking crazy pills here but if this (emphasize mine)

"I went to a recording of a podcast and one of the guests reminded me so much of you. Very similar speaking pattern and mannerisms. It was a comedy show with all autistic people so I guess that adds up."

is literally what he said, then he neither spoke about your appearance nor your voice.

Just to provide one counterargument to everyone else. That he alludes to you being autistic is shitty though.

You have every right to be proud of yourself, you look amazing! ❤️
