how do i get over the feelings i have for my half brother? (same dad, different mom)we don't live together or anything so i dont actually see him often but i love talking to him and hanging out with him and have since i was like 9. i used to follow him around everywhere. its only pretty recently (soon after beginning the process of being a stupid troon) that i realized the feelings may be more romantic and that maybe what i was feeling this whole time wasnt the normal love between brothers but like a pseudo crush? and ever since that realization it's gotten worse and i've fallen more and more for him and idk he's so cute and he's smart and recently he dressed up in this costume with armor for something and i'm actually mad at how hot it made him look so i've been realizing i have a genuine problemAND BEFORE YOU SAY "have sex have sex" i genuinely cant because im a faggot loser boymoder and he's a completely straight man (religious(transphobic(?))) who will have a gf any day now and also we're brothers like do you know how fucking weird that would be??? i just feel bad bc i know for a fact i'll be alone my whole life so all i can do is pine and now i have a person for that to focus on but it's like the worse person possible and i'm just venting atp aaaaa
>>44041093get a rapist boyfriend
>>440410931. have you ever had a crush other than him before?2. how many close friends/people/whatever idk did you have outside of your family growing up?
>>44041110too repulsive even for that unforch>>440411321. no, that's why i hesitate to call it an actual crush bc i don't think i know what that actually feels like2. like 2, i'm horrendous at making friends and this obviously applies to any closer relationships
>>44041152look, im not a psychiatrist or therapist but. i think your feelings for him are genuine but also probably caused by isolation. the less you relate to people you have to actively seek out the more you will try and find socialization in people who are "supposed" to be close to you without you having to make friends with them. i don't think its a bad (as in immoral) thought pattern to have, you shouldn't feel guilty about it. as a tranny your social circumstances are a bit extreme so abnormal mental behaviour is bound to emerge. i would say try to make some close friends, or maybe get into a hobby space. admittedly, thats really hard for me so im a bit of hypocrite saying that but i think thats the only thing that works. im also not polyamourous but looking at the pnw type polycules where they just fall in love with their friends basically makes me think alot of how trannies emotionally connect weird is explainable by lack of just "general" or "base" connection, if that makes sense. and treatable by, well, removing that lack. umm, good luck, i suppose! i'm rooting for u.
>>44041248*pretend after the "supposed to be close" clause i added (your family)
>>44041248well yeah that makes sense, and i'm well aware this is an issue like it's not normal to be attracted to your relatives. i do need to make friends (again i'm bad at that and have basically convinced myself i'll never have anything closer than friends bc duh) but i was mostly hoping for a way to like prevent this feeling into becoming something even more unhealthy in the meantime
>>44041093get a faketrans theymab to pretend to be your brother
>>44041093Son
>>44041248i disagree since that dynamic is present in many normalfag cis friend circles yet not seen as emotionally incestuous. We are talking about hypersexual Transbians here the former action is more likely to beget the latter the other way around insofar as needs and self actualization are concerned and surprise surprise they still do that shit. I have a close friend group of cis people and a larger network of people I know and I still want the polycule because a healthy social life is compensantory to the cuddle pile not the other way around.
>>44041248>>44043664actually that made me realize something about agp transbians (as a self admitted one) in that it has parallels and overlap with the anime waifu subculture. Some will say no shit and water is wet because of autism stereotypes but rather I mean it operates on a similar node and ISN'T simply a surrogate for something inobtainable but rather has it's own seperate motivations and needs that it fufils only in a way that takes on a interesting meta quality that I do not condemn and think should be explored for it's implications wrt reality and how we navigate it
>>44043724and I don't mean that in terms of a hyperidealized feminine, rather the idealized platonic but with ocytocin not dopamine driven sexual undertones and motivations being the primary driver which is why even with a healthy social life people in this cluster will STILL seek out this kind of relationship as it provides emergent qualities in response to atypical needs. Protection being one that is not spoken of enough. There are also negative ones like replication of abuse or just sociopathic exploitation and some of it may just be vanilla hypersexuality but I suspect the truth is more complex
>>44041093The person in that image comes across as self-centered and insecure. Being an emotional burden is not appealing to people.
