I guess you don't know until you tell him

I'll be telling my brother and sister soon, and there really is no way of knowing how they'll react.

Best of luck!

The best Alyssa! I hope it goes well and things continue as they are. Just remember if it turns into a negative it was he that made the choice to leave or push you away, not you. I applaud your efforts and think you look amazing. I will be thinking about you!

Good luck Alyssa. I hope it goes well for you.

Good luck, hope it all goes well

Good luck Alyssa... I hope all goes well.

I dread the day I have to come out to my brother... While I love him very much. he really is a male homophobic pig and treats women with total disrespect... So it will be an adventure to say the least.

I never had to come out to my brother, my sister told him for me

Not that it would have been a major issue, he co-wrote a book with another teacher who transitioned from MtF, so he is very familiar with this and has no problems.

I am so glad it went well for you... Coming out is tough, especially to family. I was actually discussing that topic in therapy today. My therapist said that in actuality people have more acceptance of trans people these days and I would actually will be surprised as I start coming out.

Anyway, I am really happy for you... Congrats.

I am glad it didn't go very bad. My sister was a lot like your brother and wanted all the information I had on Gender Dysphoria so she could talk to a specialist and cure me.*giggle* I suppose we both have to give them time and let it sink in a little better. I am so glad the relationship is still there and hope it brought some relief to you. Go girl!

<sigh of relief>

It sounds like it went pretty well over all. Congratulations!

I have found that for my family members while supportive have had their adjustment period as well. It's something that is so unfamiliar to them that it can throw them for a loop.

I'm sure as he see you progress it'll get easier for him.
