Besides my therapist, she is the third person to know about me (Stephanie). When I told her, I decided not to dance around it like I have with everyone else. She knew I was seeing a therapist, and she finally asked me why. I simply said, "because I want to get a sex change." She and I have been friends since high school and I distinctly remember talking with her about this way back in my sophomore year. She remembered too and understood when I brought her up to speed on my situation. I can't say she was thrilled with the idea and I think it kind of creeps her out imagining me in women's clothes, but she reassured me that our friendship would not change, and she would not disappear. So I'm happy for that.
Now I still have to tell my parents. That's the big one.
