So, do I kill myself now, or do I wait 3 more years until I turn 30?
Knowing that your trans has a priming effect, and he's known you for years. He will notice all the details that stragers don't. That is why the "passing threads" are kinda dumb.
Only the spontaneous reaction of people that don't know you, can tell you whether you pass.

As >>5283381 said, he's known you for quite some time, so of course he's gonna see the little things here and there that "show" your original maleness; it doesn't mean you're a hon, it means he just has a more attentive eye than the average passerby, rewarding you of course.
Also, you're saying you're still in boymode, so maybe that's also why he said it

Get out of your ass. Lots of women with vaginas look like men. Even ugly men. You're supposed to be gender dysphoric not narcissistic. shiggitty
Post a pic OP? He may be right, it's probably better for an unbiased source to judge, as to confirm/deny whether your friend is right.
Your friend was just trying to be encouraging since you're still in boymode. If he said that after you swapped fulltime girlmode then maybe it would have hon connotations

What if you are dysphoric and narcissistic?
