I came out

I have not posted anything at all on here in forever, but ALOT has happened since my last visit/post.
I came out to my Eldest sister and my mother.
On my birthday (in february) my sister e-mailed me wishing me a happy birthday. Normal happy birthday things, y'know? Then she asked me a question I wasn't planning on answering for quite some time. She asked me: "Do you identify as male?". To tell you the truth, I flipped. I wasn't expecting that question AT ALL. Of course, I couldn't just say "No, I don't.". I'd hate myself if I did, so I told the truth and... She's the first one in my family to actually call me Adrian. She is perfectly fine with it. :')
And my mother I told just today. I had written a note yesterday after contemplating for this whole week whether or not I should tell her this week. After giving her the note and leaving, I got a text in the middle of the day(several actually, like 6) basically stating that she'd love me no matter what, because I'm her child; male or female doesn't change a thing, that she wants me to help her help me become who I want to be, and that she and her fiance already had their suspisions.
That just really made my day. I almost cried during my lunch. :')

Thats about all I want to post for tonight. Good night~

Way awesome!
It makes transition so much easier when you have the imediate and loving aproval of the family.
I would say I was envyious but my mom is cool too. hehe
With your family behind you dude, you will go far.
So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.
