Its done, last night was a family gathering at her uncles house who knew about me. It was planned a week before, but in the meantime his girlfriends mother passed. They still had the gathering so I felt the need to tone down just a bit and not wear flashy colors (the basis of my wardrobe) but I did wear all girls clothing, nice black top with rueshing betwix the boobs and some minor bedazzlement there as well. I did my normal makeup so there was no mistake of what I was doing. When we arrived I quickly figured out it had become more than just a family gathering as her extended friends and family came to support her. So I was amidst alot of strangers... it went perfectly...
I was such a completely different person, I felt so natural just being as I wanted to be, the way I stood, sat, talked, smiled, gazed... I did not have to be rigid and constantly censoring what I was doing...this gave me so much time and energy to be in the conversations and actually enjoy the company and what was happening. I have never and I mean never been that way at any family event. I highly recommend it if you are an the cusp of coming out.... DO IT!
I also did not feel the need to consume copious amounts liquid courage all nite long... which was my usual M.O.
That is fantastic, congratulations.
Thank you dear ;)
Congratulations. I'm so pleased it went so well for you. ;D
I've got my very first meeting with a trans support group on Friday, then the following Friday I have an appointment with my therapist, which I plan on taking my Mother along to, so she can find out why I've been getting therapy. So potentially, it's only twelve days until I come out too.

Keep your head up and dont chicken out.
I nearly didnt go... last minute bail out, then this morning I was full of regret, but a forum member/friend helped me out and it soon faded then I was thrilled
