I came out to my best friend tonight over facebook messenger. Of all my friends he was the one I wasn't 100% sure about what his reaction would be.
He was totally supportive and offered advice. I even went as far to tell him I did have a crush on him and it seemed not to affect him (probably shouldn't have, but I'm being honest). I told him if there was any questions or whatever, id be willing to answer. His response:
I feel oh so completely relieved.
To go:
4 more close friends.
family (will occur with a post on fb)
work

Positive coming outs are "THE BEST". Hope they all go as well.

Thanks for the comments everyone!
Here's hoping the rest will be just as good, and also hoping my friend ends up completely supportive if its confirmed I am transgender and decide to go that path. I was waiting to tell everyone else after the fact, but I felt I had to tell him early.
