Retirement is a natural break between an old life and a new one. For a transgender person it can be the chance to live more authentically than ever before because options are open regarding what bridges to our old life we still want to be left standing.
Some relationships whither away naturally because they are mostly anchored in career. Others are also situational based on whatever hobbies we used to practice and suddenly stop doing. We are offered the opportunity to weed through our previous connections and see who merits keeping close ties with because they value the real us; the person who is much more than just a gender.
At 62 not much gets past me and BS doesn't work on me. I can almost read people like a book.
I have decided to let this process be organic and allow whatever new people come in and old ones fall away to come completely naturally.
All without great expectations and with openness to spare.
