I've been away from these forums for so long, it's almost like I'm a new member again. I've actually missed a lot ofthe people here, even if no-one knows me. :D
I figured I'd come back now that there's more of an understanding between me and the other person in this house-in a roundabout (but clear enough) way, I've come out as being trans to my dear father. As I suspected, he knew about it all along, and is kind of bitter about it, but not at me. He attributes it to my "faulty genetics" on my mother's side-which I have no knowledge of, but appearently "degenerates, perverts, queers and etc." abound on my maternal line. Plus I expressed/attempted suicide as a child for reasons I couldn't explain, was introverted, and many "typical" signs of a young TS. Looking back, I can't see how it wasn't obvious...but now it's out there, and it's not so bad.
I've pretty much holed myself up, only leaving the house for groceries once a week-that's the not-so-good news.
In lighter news, I tried my first pair of high heels (something I've wanted to try for a long time) and it felt so natural. I was wobbly, but I felt...good, natural. So...yeah, that's the point of this post-I've told my dad (who I was afraid would kick me out, but I couldn't bear it anymore) and I tried on some shoes-a big step forward for me!
Love to you all. :icon_chick:
Welcome Home, Hon.
But get out there. Don't cut yourself off for the world.

Welcome back
Don't be afraid, your Dad accepts you. Great.
Why not be the daughter he never had, at least not you. Do the feminine touches. He'll very quickly see you as female. And you will as well.
Don't be shy, we all hide sometimes but it doesn't help in the long run
Love and Hugs
