Anna, finally but not yet final.

It's hard to write your male name in here, isn't it? I was the same way. It didn't feel right. 

Then I would put down my phone and go be <male name>

First day of vacation was a success. We talked about things. Wifey asked if I had decided on laser of beard. I told her how super anxious and difficult it was to come out to her. Shopped for clothes together (a pair of women's shorts and a few other things for me).
I'll write more, later, but right now life's good.

Damn, girl! This app needs more than a like button! ❤️

Krista, I won't count my chickens just yet but right now my wife seems to at least be a bit relaxed about the fact that I am trans. A step in the right direction and today she said that she had enjoyed that evening (too much to drink, talks about my journey, clothes shopping, ...).

Gender variation and a spouse trying to find their way is like walking a fine line, isnt' it?

Another very nice evening yesterday, with talks about feelings and some "revealings" from both me and wife, and me kind of educating her a little about the span of trans people (from no presentation at all to hrt and all surgeries). But a bit too much wine and then my tongue slips a little and says that while I don't think I'll need surgeries there's no guarantee and then her feelings went into fear mode and a rant about my underdressing and perfumes and women's clothes and fears and attraction and telling other and whatnot, so the night ended in a bad mood.

But all well again this morning and she said she had overreacted and that we have to navigate the terrain as we find it, since there's no map.
So far it's a very nice vacation and I think the trans related discussions and results are positive. No pain, no gain.

I'm smiling on your behalf.

Go get that laser on your face, assuming that you have a lot of dark hairs.

It's probably one the the most affirming things I've done.

Now that I've gotten regowth on my top lip, I know it need it gone.

She is really trying and that is amazing. You are very lucky.

I will, when my tanned skin has become pale again.

Little conversations like that are helpful. It helps her expand her understanding and get a clearer picture of future possibilities. Over time, she adjusts to what may have been uncomfortable to a position of acceptance. I think she is a wonderful person. She is being honest about her concerns and her desire to work through it together.

What more could anyone ask for from a life partner?
