The way people will show you what they actually think about trans people and how much they actually value your presence in their life when you start hormones or get surgery and need support/community will always stick with me lol. I lost like 4 friends leading up to bottom surgery

As in, who is actually willing to support you/be understanding and not dismiss you as demanding or crazy if you have some complex feelings or new considerations. Who will see past their own hangups around transsexuals and treat you with respect/value your autonomy. It forces everything to come out.
