So basically yesterday I managed to meet with a few queer/trans people in my city and the next day comes and suddenly the group got quiet. No mention of making another one or anything! Me and me partner were the youngest there and maybe it's the stigma of the relationship or just my age. I know it's one meetup but people judge harshly and I blame myself for not being enough of a person to be interesting. I will try again but this time I won't be pushy :3 Mood: confused

You mentioned they might be avoiding you for your age, which seems to imply you are under 18 (or a local equivalent age) because if you were under 18 and they're past 21, there's more stigma involved (especially with the claim that trans people are groomers or whatever). Where an age gap after that is much less meaningful.
