It's often said we are judged by the company we keep and it's normal that we cultivate friends with similar interests. I've been somewhat active and out meeting other crossdressers for nearly 20 years now and it seems that those I've grown closest to and have the stronger friendships with are those who are either transitioning or out nearly full time. I'm starting to wonder if my own interests and future are being mirrored in the foundation of friends I've cultivated over the years.
Last year I spent quite a bit of time in counseling coming to terms with a variety of issues, one of them being if I wanted to pursue transition myself. I decided I wasn't on that path, but the question is never far away. Now it's back and I'm wondering if I've been creating a support group to make it easier to make the decision or it's just I find their confidence and willingness to move forward a great trait to have in a friend.
Anyone want to do some curbside counseling on this one?
