    Hey everyone! It's nice to meet you all, or expect it will be. I'm a transgirl. I'm out yet, but I finally (after too long) decided yes I will come out. I have a plan, and dates set for each of my various stages of coming out. If things go well with my parents in a few days I hope to be out publically in just a few weeks. If things go less well, I might wait and try to see if I can get their support before I go public.

    Anyway, I don't really know what Im doing or how to come out. And I have no idea what to do after. Its all so overwhelming! Hence finding this forum. I decided I could use a community to help give me the confidence to come out, and maybe help me figure things out. Or at least some cool people to talk to.

    Don't forget to Be Awesome,
    Olivia.

    Welcome to Empty Closets! I am sure you will enjoy it here and I already seem to like your organization skills:grin: I didn't have various dates for various phases of coming out and I just came out straight but I think your way is better. This is a great community and I am sure you will get plenty of help!
