Title: Someone's plan failed!!! :)
Post by: Jessica Merriman on September 14, 2014, 10:05:45 AM
Someone I know decided to get nasty and posted a note really outing me to friends as far back as grade school. The joke is on them though as I now have 119 new friends on Facebook. Some I have not seen in 30 years or so. The comments were supportive and full of compassion and acceptance. People who I never thought would support a trans person have been very nice and one of the first to friend request me is a very opinionated conservative. My mind is totally blown!! So whoever did it failed miserably!! See we can win! I may even have a date because of all of this!  :icon_yikes: So whoever SCREWED me thank you so much!!  ;D ;D ;D

Sorry someone did that to you. They must really have a lot of time on their hands if they felt the need to let your grade school friends know. They probably aren't having such a good time in their own life if they felt the need to be that mean.

I'm glad it all worked out for the best though and now you have even more friends and maybe a date!  :D I'm so happy for you!!!

You're welcome! I'm glad I could out you... er, I mean I'm glad SOMEBODY failed at their, uh, attempt to um, spread the truth, make you look like a fool!  ;)

Seriously, though. That's awesome. Do you know who it was? Isn't a gushing-in of support a wonderful feeling? I'm happy for you!

PS: Your new avatar looks fantastic!

Jessica,
It seems we all get outed.  My ex did it to me while just trying to be spiteful and mean. (not her interpretation)  Best favor, she could have ever done.  It took all the pressure off. "We are only as sick as our secrets."  Well, none here.  To Donna, thank you.

Peace,
Julie

That's awesome! :D You are unstoppable, sweetie.

It always gives me hope for humankind when some nasty, small-minded person has their dirty little plan turned around like this. Plus, the interest from a new man. You're going to have to spill all the details on that.  >:-)

I'm glad this worked out for you! This is certainly evidence that there are more good people in the world than bad, and only a few bad apples will attempt to ruin things. I kinda wish everyone would just know about me as well, but I'm also afraid of making the move. Maybe it would be good if someone made a failed attempt at stabbing me in the back, too.

When I know, you won't will know!  :P

Have to admit to being a little lot excited. If he turns out to be a ->-bleeped-<- though, weenie roast at Jessica's place!  ;D ;D

Jessica I am glad you are well grounded and out.

If this happened to someone just stating with all the other pressures it could have been disastrous. Outers are sick people who thrive on hurting someone else for no other reason than to make you feel horrible. They could be the straw to break the camels back.

That is amazing and kind of funny really not to mention ironic. Talk about backfire. I guess this person will think next time they try to be "Mule" that being spitefully mean just doesn't pay. 119 new friends and a prospectful date? Sounds like they did you more of a favor than anything else.

OK, that made me laugh.  Do you have a Black and Decker Pecker Wrecker handy?

Anyway, awesome, Jessica.   Don't you love it when people assume the rest of the world is just as bigoted as they are or need to validate their own bigotry in this way?  Oh well, how's that for a fat reality check?

a hateful bigotry driven outing can be very helpful. people will get defensive of the one who's being hated on and kind of forget about doubting the truth of the revelation.

hoping for the day when someone will out me to the world...

Jill - I have noticed this same attitude from some people I know, always predicting doom and gloom and unhappiness on my journey. It always makes me happy to tell them about yet another positive thing that's happened for me LOL....

Jessica - awesome story! :)

Have a nice time
