So the situation is that my mum knows and my nan knows.
I myself am very eager to let the rest of the family know to get it over and done with, i just want them to know. But my nan, being the boss an all, wont let me. Says it's best that i actually start transition at the hospital first before i tell any more people, the reason being they wont believe i'm serious about it.
So, at college i'm passing very well since everyone on my course believes i'm a bio guy and knows nothing of my TG status. So i've started to get christmas cards addressed to Jonathan and i decided to put them on the window ledge downstairs in the room. Problem is, my nan's decided to visit today, with my uncle, who knows nothing about it. And i just saw him downstairs by the window ledge in the room, no doubt he's seen the cards and read them.
I'm not worried about him finding out, i'd rather him know. I'm just really nervous of his reaction. I just dont know if he'll say anything, if he'll say anything now, or wait til he leaves.... or if he even saw them???
Just scared a little. I know my nan will be able to deal with him, but i really think highly of him myself and looked up to him ever since i was a kid. Just dont want to loose that respect, it's what would damage me the most.
Wish me luck, guys! Think i'm guna need it.
Good luck Wishy. You are a nice bloke and deserve the best. Everything is going to be quite alright :)
It would be great to be able to go out drinking with him one night.
I know he's always seen me as his little princess and i cant do no wrong, but i actually look up to him as a role model since i was little, the fart jokes, the pub jokes, the real dirty humor he's got. I'd love to join in, but he's just never let me.
He gave me a lecture last year on getting drunk and drinking, cos he always turns up to christmas dinner plastered and he'll tell the most pointless and meaningless of jokes that even he doesn't understand and a part of me wants to inherit that as a family member.
You've really come a long way. I can't promise you how this will turn out for you, but I'm keeping you in my thoughts.

Got my fingers crossed for you, buddy.
Well it's been a day and nothings been said yet. Maybe he noticed and just isn't saying anything - probably waiting for me to say something.
Which i should, and hope to soon... 'cept christmas would be a really awkward time.
Good Luck Wishy,
I hope all goes well for you.

yeah, christmas isn't the best of times... but you gotta tell him. He sounds important to you. Screw what your nan says...
