I recently posted two threads where I explained that I have moved into a new home and have difficulty getting out because my neighbors live so close. The second post was about a few little walks sneaking out late at night.
Well I broke out Big time on Saturday! There is a local transgender party at a club not too far from me that I went to once, before I moved into my new house and had a great time. I toyed around with the Idea of going, but was almost sure that once ready, I would chicken out and stay in. One thing I noticed was that my next door neighbor was out. That was the opportunity I needed to walk out the door. I was slowly walking out the door when I noticed two younger men a few doors down smoking. I ducked back in and waited until they were done. Once gone, I went for it. I thought the street was empty, but much to my surprise, there was a young woman walking behind a car across the street! I just kept going. No sense in stopping now since she already saw me. I just walked confidently to my car and got in. No big deal.
Now the hard part was over and I was thrilled to be out. There are too many details about my night to write them here, but it was one of the best times I have EVER had!! I even had a nice gentleman by me drinks (I did let him know that I wasn’t interested in anything other than good conversation). I met some awesome people and danced the night away.
When it was time to leave, a few of the girls invited me to go out to a dinner for coffee! Now going to a club full of other transgender people was one thing. Going to a public establishment among the masses of society was quite something else. I figured that with the others along, this was a great opportunity that I could not pass up! I went and had a great time. The place was not crowded but did have customers there. We drew lots of attention, but it was all good natured. I had a blast.
I’m so encouraged by what a great time it was that I’m looking forward to going again soon. I know it will still be a challenge getting out of the house, but I feel like once out the door there is no stopping me!!! I feel soooo good about it. It really was a liberating night.
I attached a pic of me that was taken at the club and posted on the group’s website. Thanks for reading xx Patti.
