    Well, I finally did it! I came out to my parents and it went great! I don't know what else to say but my parents were totally cool about it. I haven't gotten them or anyone save for my older sister and my online friends to use the right pronouns yet buuuuut it's a work in progress, I figure it takes time to adjust... Either way I feel elated and I want to go out and celebrate! My parents and I had a pretty good talk about it, Mom gave me a few makeup pointers but complimented me on the makeup I was wearing (I actually showed up in makeup, sort of simi-girl mode for me...) so that was cool. And dad was his usual lovable supporting self... It was a very positive experience for me, and I'm getting to a point where I'm just being me now! I don't really care who knows anymore, because the three most important people in my life know and support me and that is all that matters now! :slight_smile:

    Yeah, it's the same in my case. After +2 months, my dad is starting (slowly) to adapt. Patience, lots of patience... They taught you how to walk, now you are kind of doing the same, you know...

    I'm very glad to hear it went so well, and I'm very happy for you!! (*hug*)(*hug*)(*hug*)

    Thanks everyone, Dad especially has made a quick adjustment, he's already cracking jokes! Not mean spirited ones at my expense or anything, just funny observations about the situation and the signs that existed... It's really helping me feel like everything is still normal :slight_smile: I love him so much!
