Won't happen. Because you don't fit the standard 100% and, on top of that, you also continue to be insecure about this.
I don't even see myself as a tranny or as a woman. If you press me I'll say I'm an hrt femboy. But I get gendered female 80%+ of the time no matter what. I take it with grace regardless of whether I'm called Nona or Anon.
The solution is to stop giving so much of a fuck. Embrace being a weirdo and a mysterious being. There's nothing really wrong with that and it's also not the most important thing in life (took me years to accept that).
Focus on your IRL life, friends and family (chosen and/or biological). That's what matters. The metaphysics of gender is a lot less interesting.
Hugs.

this sounds like a lot of self projection. ive done accepted that people will just read me as a man 99% of the time. i walk into any place i go with this expectation. idc about that i just wish people could decide what box to put me in because its annoying having these awkward interactions where i basically become a wikipedia of trans stuff for people on the fly. im not going to "embrace" being a weirdo because aside from being a tranny im a lot more vanilla/normal than like 99% of the people ive met. im over a decade at this point into it and now in my professional life im getting sick of it interfering with my life at every turn

Welp, that's precisely why you should embrace it. We're a lot more similar than you think.
I basically say "I'm a very feminine dude" and just end the conversation. No wikipedia of trans stuff, no more awkwardness.
I do get your point with professional life. It's exactly for that reason that I embraced it. If no-one asks, I roll with whatever box the stranger puts me in. If anyone asks, I'm a very feminine dude. It's been working like a charm for almost 10 years now (an older enby fag advised me to do this in 2017).
I'm telling you this works if done consistently. And calms down anxiety too.
Or, you could ignore and call it self-projection.
I'm sorry, but you have to focus on what you can control, which is yourself. You can wish people "could just decide" what box to put you in, but it simply won't happen anytime soon. Least of all in a cultural context where gender expression is far more scrutinized than when we started (I take it from your comment that you started around the same time as I did).

respectfully i dont even like saying that much honestly, nor would i ever want to call myself an enby. to each their own its just not me. when people ask i just say im trans and move on. its more the invasive questions after. it puts me in a bad spot where its like i can either be the stereotype and cry (not literally) to a higher up/HR or roll with it like a normal person either case leaving me feel like i got fucked over. i started in 2014

what do you do when people ask you what pronouns? ive tried saying I don't care, but they keep pressing it.

>its more the invasive questions after
I know! That's why I don't utter the word "trans" in public. Nor the word enby, for that matter. Pour les connaisseurs, I'm an hrt femboy. For everyone else I'm a dude.
>i started in 2014
yep, so did I. Autumn of 2014.
>what do you do when people ask you what pronouns?
he/him.
hasn't happened in a while though. It probably helps that I'm not in an english-speaking country and the pronoun mania never really caught on even in corporate environments.

It's easier to see when you already know
