As some of you may know a while back i announced that i was going to come out to my parents. But then didnt because i felt it wasnt the right time.

Well i did it. My sister was down from up north, and i decided that i couldnt put it off any longer. So i got my friend to come with me for moral support, went around the houses for a few before finally coming out with it. Huge weight lifted, and my prediction of the reaction was spot on. I thought that my mum would just accept it and though obviously a little shocked she did. Same for my sister. My dad as i predicted accepted it but im not sure he will handle it very well. So it will take time for him but thats understandable.

And im moving in with a friend. This will hopefully give me some extra cash to be able to build up a wardrobe, As much as oi would love to go full time now, life is life and its just not possible finacially or practically. So hopefully i will be going full time around september. A while i know but its the earliest date that i could realistically set.

In a great mood now things feel like they are moving forward again albeit slowly, after stalling for a short while. :angel:

Happy to hear things went ok.
Well being TG is no treat, but becoming separated has sure caused me more trouble that being TG ever will be. So if I post, consider it me trying to distract myself from being lonely, not my needing to discuss being TG. I don't want to be separated a lot more than not wanting to be male looking.

Good news Shannon! There it wasn't all that bad was it now? I think I predicted earlier just about how they would react.
