Coming out, Round 1

Ok, so I've been posting a lot since I got on the site  ;D, and I love the fact that I have some support, even if it isn't personal.

I suppose this would sort of be the second round of coming out, since I had to come out to myself first. But, aside from me, this is round 1.

This Saturday, I'll be visiting my best friend, who was my best man at my wedding. He is, by most means, closer to me than my own brother. Even though we don't see each other much, we're always there for each other.

A mutual friend of ours will also be visiting, per my request. This mutual friend just started HRT a few months ago.

My best friend cares for me and my wife as though we were his brother and sister. Is it unwise of me to ask him to keep my secret from my wife until I'm ready to tell her? He has some problems of his own (PTSD from being in Iraq), and I don't want to overload him. Would it be better to just talk to the transgender friend?

I will be asking my BF if he can keep the secret before I tell him, and I'm sure he can. I just need some support before I start everything, and they are the only two people I trust to know so soon.

Also, do you think it wise to tell a friend before SO?
