For the past 3-6 weeks I have been wanting to come out of the closet in to friend. I was tossing around doing it on Facebook. Well Monday I finally figured out what to say, wrote it up and made it so that only I could see it. Well yesterday after having to smack some people down a few levels, because of politics, I made it public. I didn't realize that it still attributed the post to Monday, so a few days behind.
Well so far thing have gone OK no negative posts or messages and no defriendings, if they de-friend OH well, then they didn't matter any way.
I feel like a good amount of weight has left my shoulders, and at the same time left with the feeling of what do I do now. It's kind of a odd feeling.

A bit of advice: if any one does this make sure you really want this, and it helps to have a few who already know you cross-dress.

Personally, I don't know if I would tell anyone through facebook myself because while a lot are real friends, there are a bunch that were added for games and such and do they really need to know? Good luck with it though and I hope it works out for you :)

Never put anything on facebook that you don't want the world to know. Just posting that you will be out of town for a week can get your house broken into.

I'm not a FB fan, and prefer to make my revelations to friends as personal as I can. But I am old fashioned. Hope it works out for you!

I do not do any social media. I figure anything I have to say to anyone on any issue will be said in a one on one conversation. I'm usually the last person to know anything in the local extended family. I probably spend too much time on this site on a daily basis. To add FB? I'd never get any work done around. Time to log off and go rake leaves (en drab). Nothing like a fifty foot sycamore tree in the front yard, :(

I probably woulda' done an e-mail to close friends, but not facebook.. Too sketchy for my tastes..
But then, if you really wanted OUT of the closet, you certainly probably are.. Good luck!
Wish I had done it years ago, but only to a select few.. woulda' made everything a lot easier!!
I 'outed' myself to the wife prior to marriage, and she is supportive, so that has helped tremendously..
