I started talking with this very nice woman awhile back and she wants to hang out and meet but I haven't told her that I'm a tboy but I've asked how much she knows about transgenders but haven't said anything more about it,I'm not sure how to tell her and I'm worried that once I do tell her she'll stop talking to me,I don't know what to do about it but want to see where things go so I'm just wonder if anyone has any helpful ways on how to go about this,Sorry if I'm posting this in a wrong spot on here I'm still kinda new to the whole postings on here,If anyone has ides on how to go about this that would be great to know,Thanks so much

How did she react and what did she answer?

If she reacts negatively to who you are then she isn't the friend you thought she was.

How will you react if she turns out to be something you didn't expect?

And it's great to meet you RyanBlake

I think everyone has a different way to deal with this.

Here's some guidelines - if you wait too long, it's going to be a mess, and her and possibly you are going to end up hurt. She will feel decieved.
However if you tell her to soon (IMO) - she may completely lose interest. If you wait a little while she may gain enough interest in you that it will last through telling her.

And when you tell her.. expect for her not to take it well. Be patient, explain things - and then see how she takes it a few days later. I'd say the initial reaction isn't a good way whether to judge whether or not to keep her on as a friend.

Depending on her reaction when you asked what she knew she might take it well. I wish I could give you advice but I always just outright say it and if people can't deal then I don't want to surround myself with them. All I can say is when you do tell her be prepared for questions.
