Title: I told my sister...It didn't go the way I expected it to.

Hello I made another milestone in this process, I told my sister about my situation we had conversation via text message and I told her somethings about myself.  She was like she already thought  I  was gay I told her I was  bisexual.  She didn't know about the transgender thing.  When I told her about that part she was like basically OK...long pause I asked her "you hate me now? don't you"? then she texted me back No I don't...I was so happy to get that text message from her saying that...I feel a lot better about this she sent me another text message telling me that she loved me and the reason that moved me is my folks we usually don't talk like that...onward I go...

Congratulations. I'm glad it went well for you. Family can surprise you. I was afraid my older brother would hate me for being trans but I couldn't have been more wrong.

Maybe it is a chance to get closer, a chance to start a new relationship of understanding each other as the real you. Very happy for you.
