Came out for the first time!

Just last night I came out to my best friend as transgender. Since it was on Facebook, this is a transcript of the chat:

Me: Z (My best friend)... I'm transgender.... I thought it was the right time to tell you when you and A (Our other friend) both mentioned it in the past week.

Z: Awwwwww... that is the sweetest thing anyone has done. Thank you for confiding in me. And considering you're such a great friend, i don't even mind a bit. I just feel really bad if A and I said something. I don't really remember anything. Trust me though, neither of us meant to hurt you if we did.

Me: Thanks And your comments actually made me more confident, because I wasn't as scared that you might react badly. But A doesn't know yet... nobody does, actually. Except you

z: :") I'm tering up. *Tearing. That was really sweet of you. And trust me I won't say a single peep. I am like the King of Keeping Secrets.

Me: And if you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask.

Z: So what exactly does it mean... Isn't it when you're born in one body but is really the oppisite sex

Me: Yes, that is exactly it.

Z: Oh okay, phew... I do have the right definition. And that is totally fine with me. I actually respect people who are gay or have a disease or transgender. I think they are extra strong than those of normal people. Oh and another question.... Were you worried to tell people.

Me: Of course. and I still am. You're the 1st... well, technically the 3rd... but the 1st that counts to me.

Z: I'm honored. And You're very brave in telling me. I know I probably couldn't do it.

We talked for a few minutes and few more questions were asked, then we went to bed. I think this is a victory! (!):eusa_clap
