I can't talk for others, but I had an extremely positive experience coming out to my girl friends (they are most of my friends btw, I always felt better socializing with girls).

My best friends response, was this, word for worth:
"Yay, so when are we going shopping? Girls day out!"
"You know, don't you, that no amount of prayer that you are not transgender, will make you something other than what you are."

I'm back from the beach trip I took with the youth at my church, the result? I'm emotionally dead. I effed up so effing badly now that I doubt she will ever trust me again. I cut myself FOUR times consecutively today because of it and I cryed my eyes out for about twenty minutes. I am probably likely to kill myself within the next year. I don't want to live for another second in this screwed world. I feel next to nothing emotionally now and I'm just done with life.

Sade "she" is just one person and you deserve the opportunity to meet lots more.  All your eggs in one basket kind of thinking Hon?

The beach sounds lovely anyway.....

She may be just 'one' person but she is the only true friend I have ever had in my life and just like I always got stabbed in the back now I did it to her. I'm thinking of asking my youth pastor or my Nana to pray that our friendship will be restored.

Hey Jackie, your always so intense.  Human interaction involves being hurt and hurting.  There is this song I love called Remain Nameless by Florence + the Machine.  In it our these lyrics:

I know everyone let's you down.  I'll do the same.  But know I'll always be around.  This can remain the same.

That is life right there Jackie.  We all hurt each other...  I'm personally not christian, but I know of the teachings of christ, and he says that forgiveness can be found through faith.  He says all have sinned and fallen short of the lord, and only through asking forgiveness are you saved.  He says don't judge lest ye be judged.

These are in fact his greatest lessons, the ones he teaches again and again.  Do you think that's coincidence?  Learn to not take everything like it's the end of the world.  Give yourself confidence.  You already walk a tough path, so don't make it tougher.  Sprout into the beautiful brave young lady you need to be.

Here is that song, best of luck!  I find music is an artform that can heal any soul!



good luck!

Please do not accuse me of taking everything like its the end of the world because I don't. And "Judge not, lest you be judged" are words I live by. I don't intend to judge when I do. I'm trying to fix things and even though it seems like it isn't working at all. I will have faith in Jesus.
