Title: Such a relief
Post by: bambam on August 13, 2014, 08:43:42 AM
I just finally finished telling the last closest family member in my life that I was transitioning into male. I saved the most conservative and religious family member for last. I can honestly say the conversation went better than I could have ever anticipated. She didn't try to change my thought process or my decisions at all. She just said that transitioning isn't want she would want for me out of life but she loved me no less. She did however say she would be praying against what I wanted but ehh. All in all that was a more successful conversation than the way it could have went. A total weight has been lifted.

That's great that she's still going to love you. I still haven't come out to my very conservative members and I hope when I do, it goes like this, because it's the best I could hope for.

Yeah, I'm hoping it goes good for you too. I honestly expected her to tell me to leave her house but she didn't. I had already told my parents and my brother before her, and they were all fine with it but I had this nagging on my brain to tell her. My heart was pounding because I was so nervous. I had gone back and forth for months before I finally told her. But I wish you all the luck :)
