Coming Out Update

[Guest RachyB]

I just wanted to post a little update on my coming out to people. As I said before I came out to my first person, now I've come out to my second and third people. The first other person I told was instantly okay with it, and said she'd have no problem with me going out with her as me. The second other person was a bit more confused, not knowing the full story about before when I said I was trans to stop people trying to change parts my personality, so I explained all that to her, made her swear not to tell anyone, and she was fine with it. It's been an awesome coming out process this far, and I know it's not always gonna be like this, but it definitely gives me a lot more confidence.

Next step, going out as myself!

Hi Rachy

It is always a relief when a friend or close relative accepts us as we truly are.

As you see I moved your topic to the "Coming Out Forum" because it seemed more appropriate.

PLEASE be careful. Those you swore to secrecy are the first to tell everyone!

Also, it is good to be yourself. But know there can be repercussions.

Being trans is NOT always fun - it can get complicated really quickly. So... just be yourself and be careful.
