Hi Everyone,
My name, not 100% sure yet, is Kristin. I am 34 years old and I have known that I was transsexual for a while but have really started to deal with it about two years ago. I chose the name Kristin because it is close to my given name, and people can still call me Kris and not feel weird about it. I tend to worry a lot about how other people are going to handle the fact that I am a transsexual female and this is just one example of how that manifests itself. To be honest, I always put other people ahead of myself, but that's a topic for another day. :-)
So, I am married and have two children, one girl and one boy. I have come out to my wife and she is truly supportive of me. She has accepted me and even helps me with make up, eyebrows, etc. She is my soul mate, for lack of better terms, and we are still very much in love. When she really came to understand I am still me regardless of the exterior she said, and I quote " I guess that makes me a lesbian now"!
The only other person I have some out to is my sister. As you can see I have a long way to go and I still have a lot of anxiety and worry about how this whole thing will play out but I know I will only truly be happy if I can take off this mask I've been wearing and exist as my true self.
I came here because I am looking for community and feedback from like minded people. I am happy to be amongst you.
tldr; Hi I'm Kristin, 34 yo, MtF, and I have a family who supports me, nice to meet you!
