Title: Came out to friend, and a bit dumbfounded
Post by: Amaryllis on January 09, 2015, 06:47:24 PM
After being rejected consistently by older friends and family about being trans, I came out to one of my newer female friends as trans. The thing is, what I received in turn was an extremely flat, I don't care, I'll treat you just the same as before. Not to say I'm not happy about this. I was just a bit taken back that she'd treat me just the same as a friend, I was expecting a more, hateful reaction. Perhaps I've become too negative after so many negative responses.

One person can make a world of difference. I am sure you will find more people as well. Good luck girl!

That's great. Sometimes it's the ones we expect to support us who don't and the ones who we expect not to that do.
