Hello, just looking for a little advice. Been with my partner for a year now and she is a trans woman. And she is "discovering" herself so to speak and wants to spread her wings. I'm also in the same boat because dating someone like her has been great and I also understand and want to do that myself.

We had a bit of a rough week last week and it culminated in her exploring her thoughts and what she wants. After some small talks about things that pertain to ENM. We are coming back together this afternoon to see whats next and where we go from here. I don't want her to feel like I am controlling or something. But also I need to navigate this so we both feel comfortable with this life/relationship choice. Is there anything I can take into this conversation to make her feel comfortable expressing but also knowing she is considering my side of things. Or things I should take from what she has to say to understand more if she really wants ENM or just to basically turn our relationship to strictly casual along with everything else?

Any advice would be greatly hopefully anything I just typed make a lick of sense.
