Susan's Place Transgender Resources

Hi All;
i know I've posted quite a few replies and given some advice but I felt it was time that I showed the true Beth. this is my photo, for better or worse. This is my first step to becoming the real me. i have a long way to go and I know that my friends here will support me in the good as well as the bad times to come. I'm working my way up to telling my family about Beth. It will happen eventually. i just wanted you all to know where I'm at right now. Thanks for everything.
Hugs

Good Luck ... your sounded by a bunch of supportive people here!

Beth,

Your avatar is really pretty. You look so cute. We hope that coming out goes as smoothly as possible. It is difficult. We are here for you and wish to know how it is going with you. We will be looking for your posts.

Always wishing you the best.

Many, Many, Hugs.

Thank you Patty and Roxy. I know it will take time. I'll keep you posted. I plan on talking to my GP next month when I see her and then I'll probably have to have "the talk" with my wife. She's my soulmate of 35 years. I can't bear to hurt her. I may not have the strength to tell her. If I can't I'll have to live the way I've been living. I'll keep you posted.
Thanks for the sup[port.

Nice to 'see' you Beth.   ;D

I do not envy you having the "Talk" with the wife.  Stand tall and stand your ground.  I pray that she accepts Beth.

Hi Janet;
From your lips to God's ears.

Good luck Beth....I know my wife's support is so important. With it, the journey is alot easier..
Again, good luck and be blessed...Christy

I hope everything goes well when you tell your GP and wife.  They say a journey of a thousand miles begins with one small step and you have already taken one big step already with your post.

Take care and all the best for the future.

Kind regards
Sarah B

Thank you Sarah. The GP should be easy. It's my wife that really has me worried.

Thank you Christy, Jerica and Gennee. Everyone's support is overwhelming. I don't know what to say other than I'm so proud to be amongst such great people. I love you all. I'm sitting here(my wife is out) crying my heart out from all of the lovely comments from you.
