I told a friend : )

[youngjulie3]

one of my best friends is a lesbian and she told me when we were 19. but we were talking the other day and i told her i had to tell her something, i knew she would accept it but still nervous. i first told her i am bi.. then after long chat she asked since we are just spilling everything out anything else you need to say.. i told her i like to crossdress.. : ) she accepted it and said that her gf would love to do my make up and dress me and take me out in portland area.. im really excited since i have someone i can talk about this with.. : ) feels great.. :D

[Rachel Morley]

That is so awesome! Take it from me (especially when you are new to this) having a GG dress you, do your makeup, and then take you out in public, just blows your mind! I will never ever forget how I felt when it happened to me. Lucky you! :)

[youngjulie3]

ya i am really excited, i know i could never pass doing my own make up and would never consider going out in public if i dressed myself but she said she will help with all of that : )

Good luck to you and have fun. It will be wonderful having someone to share this with face to face.

[youngjulie3]

Halloween, WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF IT, LOL :) that date would be best to come out, most will really believe we really are cross dressers ans also, most will accept or just be a little stunned, but will get over it. Itll all be done sooner. would have saved me a lot of time. Think this Halloween, ill go to my meetings i usually attend as Jeff. but ill be jen :)

Good one! Future looking bright it seems. It is must be great to have someone to share this with and perhaps get a little bit of that extra nudge to get going. I've been pretty much on my own but I do have the support of two ex SO/GGs, but they live in other countries than I do. Best of luck!

I also told a female friend who is lesbian. She said her girl would help me with dressing too but we just haven't found a time to do it yet. Good luck with everything

[Claire Cook]

Julie,

Having GG friends who will share and go out with you is a special joy. Treasure it and her!

[Beverley Sims]

I had a lesbian friend that thought that it was good to turn boys into girls.

[jsunic_1978]

I don't know what I was afraid of. :) I still get slightly nervous, but most people that look shocked and wants to talk, ther more afraid well take offense. I get out n shop and little by little having GREAT EXPERIENCES. worst comes the worst at times a gay man flirts with me sometime whater im Jeff or Jen. no big deal, them I explain why I dress, other than that i just let people think :)

[jsunic_1978]

At places where people know me best, but never seen me as Jen, I just wear clear nail polish, women's shoes (Nikkie, asics,Adidas, some sandals, and uggs) plain women's jeans. No one even bats an eye nor questions, also, I am fully shaved. Its prior to Halloween now, I would start just with these tricks :) Lots of love and best of luck :)

[jsunic_1978]

going in public isn't relly all that bad I would just stay out of the bars unless with a lot of friends. idk, I just got tired of touring my self by not going out. Me, I could be stuck between both genders.

Sounds like such a wonderful situation. I hope you three can work this out and you get a trip out. Halloween may be a nice first outing, but it may be that she wants her work to be seen in the light of a normal day, doing normal things too. Don't panic. you are in for a special treat.
