That must be difficult indeed. If I were in your shoes I'd try moving to a bigger, more cosmopolitan city and/or look for other trans people.
I would like to, but right now I cant afford to live on my own; I'm back at home with a parent. There are a couple cities nearby that are more LGBT friendly, though I don't drive, so the onus would be on the other person.
I dabble in online dating occasionally, so I may find someone that way. I'm not totally hopeless. Just cynical. ;D
