Hey chicks and any guys reading the forum,
Three stories of coming out last couple days.
Since I am having FFS I there were a couple of people I felt should know before I change even more..
So, my neighbor.. at my wifes house catches me in the driveway to see my toyota I just got. I have known them since 1976 and they are in their 80's. Nice nice people.
Anyway, we have been wanting to tell them but I have been just popping in the house and avoiding them.
I had my ears pierced and hair is long now and I could tell he was noticing the ears.
I said, Is your wife home.. we need to talk.. They already knew my wife and I are apart but great friends and that I bought a house down the street from her.
So I sat down and told them the whole story. They were wonderful and accepting and happy for me that I am able to be myself now..so that went very well.
Story 2, one of my customers kept coming to mind and I miss seeing my customers.. so I need to hand out calendars and have been mailing the. So I decided to see this one in person and tell them.
I walk in and she almost falls out of her chair.. does not even know me at all and I am presenting not male or female just naturally. She proceeds to ask me how I lost so much weight and how I could look so young. She was stunned at my youthful appearance and said I don't look a day over 30.. I am 55. So I sat down and told her the story about how as a child I felt different and have always felt I was a girl. She gave me two thumbs up and smiled and said I am family to them and you go girl.. Then told me she was pissed that I look so much more fem than her.. but she did it in a nice way..
Story 3 just happened due to circumstances and is the most profound of the three.
My son does granite work and is sick. A lake buddy of mine and his wife are buying a new house and I have not seen them in over a year. They wanted my son to measure this morning for the job but my son is sick.
This guy is one of those dudes that would talk about women in a way you may understand and I always felt funny about it because I did not view women as objects. He always thought of me as a dude dude.. and I had 18 inch arms last time he saw me.. they are 12" now.. yea!
So the lady selling him the house and her daughter were there and he and his wife.
I walk in and he freaked out.. kept saying I look 20 years old.. So I measure the job and we are all sitting and talking and questions of how I did it kept coming.. Like how do you look so young.. and the 80 year old lady said I look so cute.. she said you would make a beautiful girl... and her daughter said I don't look a day over 28.
Of course I am eating this up like feeling so good so finally I said.. well I am transgendered and going to be a girl.
My buddy said like three times no your not thinking I am kidding. So then I said no I am not kidding and next week having FFS and explained what that is.
The 80 year old cute lady said OMG that is so wonderful I am so happy for you. Her daughter was like. I am so glad I was here to witness this and was smiling ear to ear..
Anyway, my buddy said he loved me regardless and I promised to come see them early next year after I heal.
So, for something I would have killed myself had someone found out two years ago to now being comfy with it makes me so happy to be loved and makes me feel so much compassion for others.. I just want to help others now any way I can.
Love this big blue globe we live on..
Hope someone finds inspiration in the story.
Have a great weekend chicks,
Keri
