Yup going over right now. My hands are shaking a lot. But I'm going to get it done. I'm giving her me for the whole day if needed. I'll try and post back how it went!

So happy! I was so worried. It went very well she didn't fully understand everything but I explained it all clearly and she was very understanding and supporting. She said she felt bad that I was going through everything. I'm going to spend the day with her now I think. I almost cried so many times but I got through it all. I feel so fortunate.
Thanks everyone!
Thanks everyone!

Hiya.... you've been really lucky. Well done! Yeah, spend some good time together - it's a rare moment of very powerful intimacy, and I am sure you will make the most of this time.
Big hugs!

It was a good time. She was a bit confused at the terminology but I clearly explained as best I could. Unfortunately the rest of the day for me was bad as i realized a lot of other people are not as fortunate, and I offered to help grocery shop with them and well, the dsyphoria came back real bad, too many people and things :( but I feel Atleast when I move in, it will be a better environment!

Thanks, I had to fight crying a lot cause I wanted the whole conversation out. I realize now that I don't think she has ever seen me cry. I always held it in to be strong for everyone else. inside though I cried a lot. I know a lot of other people don't get this lucky. I owe my mom a lot.
As an update my mom talked to my step dad and he is also supportive! I'm looking forward to moving in with them.
