Came out to my dad

Finally came out to my dad about a week ago...I was more nervous about it than I was coming out to my mom because I care a lot more about my dad's opinion, and he cares more about what I do. But it went fine. He said it was a bit difficult for him to understand, and I said I didn't expect him to understand right away, and I know he has to think about it. But I was happy with how much interest he showed - asked why I feel I'm a guy, and suggested we find a therapist for me to talk to that specializes in transsexuals. :) Which is very good that he brought it up, being as I don't want to have to be the one to ask him for money for it (mom doesn't believe in counseling for any reason, so I need him on my side if my parents are going to pay for therapy) and I do want to talk to somebody.

And then a few days ago he asked me if I wanted to start working out with him. Totally stoked about that :D I'd like to build some muscle. But we both agreed that I don't have the time to do that now with school and work, and I know he's not even really going to the gym now, he just has a membership and says he goes :laugh: so in the summer I'll be the one dragging him, most likely.

Overall, yeah, things went really well with dad. I feel very lucky for it. :)
