“It’s weird being 29 and going through adulthood again,” Dorfman told Time magazine. “Some days I feel like I’m 14. As a result of this shift, the types of romantic partnerships I’m looking for have been different.”
Tommy explained: “I was in a nine-year relationship, where I was seen as a more masculine person, with a gay man. I love him very much, but we’ve learned that as a trans woman, what matters to me isn’t necessarily reflected in a gay man.”
She continued, “We had great conversations to redefine our relationship as friends. The transition has been liberating and clarifying.”
