My parents were great at first, I came out in a very long email to them explaining everything, and they said they already saw it, asked questions, etc, but for whatever reason that I still, to this day can't figure out, they turned on me and began calling me unnatural and intentionally calling me a girl/princess/etc and making extremely triggering statements. I still get nauseated when I think of the emails they sent after they found out I wasn't coming back to them. /:

However my uncle and aunts that I live with have been fully accepting from day one and tell me that as long as I'm happy with my life, and not hurting anyone, I can do whatever I see fit. Even if they don't always understand. ^^

Name's Eryn. Pleased to meet you :D

I haven't told my parents and I don't plan to. They're old and their minds are set and I really don't have the energy to rock the boat. If there's any family member I might tell in the future, it would probably be one uncle. I don't have any siblings and I was never super close to any extended family (I didn't even have cool grandparents like all the other kids I knew seemed to have). The one uncle is cool and I still talk to him regularly.
