Hi All: I have been thinking very seriously in the last weeks about two things. The first one is about the urge to come out to my wife and my family.
As time passes by I think I am convincing my self more and more to take that step; I know once I take it, there is not stepping back.
Also my feelings have change dramatically as well, many years ago when I just cross dressed and started exploring my femme side, I would never consider Hormones nor SRS, even though the idea would keep a dream in my mind. However I would never considere it because looking my self in the mirror I would think that no matter what I do I would never accomplish being a woman or looking close to one.
In the last months most of my day is spent thinking about coming out and transitioning, and the transition part really surprised me because I now consider really seriously having surgery at some point.
Some times I have second thoughts because I suddenly feel that is now the right thing, but later I get that feeling aging and my struggle gets bigger.
Right now I am more on the transitioning side, but at times I just ask my self if it would be a mistake, or I will regret it later.
I want to have your input and share your experiences as to if there was a real regret after transitioning in any degree.
I am worried that my sexual life will not be good, since sex is very important to me.
I am also worried that since I was born a male, and I always lived my life as male and did the things that were expected from me as a male, I will not feel confortable at some point, to the degree of regret.
I will definitely will come out to my partner of 15 years, I will look the right moment in the next month or two, and I will start therapy as well, but I will really value your comment and any advises you may have.
Thank you,
Hugs.
Paola.
