Hey yall, came out fully to my gf last week. Guess i knew what the results were gonna be...shes devastated and i cant really blame her. Nice thing is she seems to understand and has been helping me with makeup; she cares - but deep down im not sure if itll work with her unfortunately. On a side note, i somehow drew the short straw and my parents are staying at my house for a few days while visiting and its driving me nuts to not just tell them as well...i think it would at least drive them out of my house, lol.

lol @ coming out to your parents do drive them away... but seriously, that's an awful idea. Wait 'til you're ready to handle that conversation.

Also... don't give up on your girlfriend too soon. She might surprise you. You might surprise you, too. Transition takes some time, and she might grow to accept / appreciate the differences; you might be satisfied with less transition than you're thinking about now.

You never know how it will work out. I came out to my fiancee on a Thanksgiving weekend before we were supposed to be married the following June. I figured she would call the wedding off. This June we will celebrate our 46th anniversary.

Now that is an amazing feat 46 years after. Fingers crossed I live long enough to say that some day.
As for the gf it's a lot for her to take in not just for your change but for her to consider herself a lesbian. Just as we were programed to act and feel like we were "supposed" to she will have have a lot to think about.
