Coming out, very scary

[stevie b]

Hi everyone, wellmthe ime has arrived a lot sooner than we hjad planned but its the right time.

Since dressing more and more it has become obvious that to me (I have found out who I am at last) and also to my wife that the future is looking at transistioning. My doctor has refered me to GIC and waiting for the appointment. My wife can't believe the change in me, its the answer to all my deep feelings.

We have told our best friends and they were great, the local support group is brilliant. The crunch will be this Wednesday when we tell our daughter. She is aware something is up and has made light harted jokes about me being gay. I can't lie about who I am anymore. This is going to be the hardest thing I have ever done, but it is the thing to do.

Will let you know how things go.

I hope it goes well for you Stevie, telling your daughter. I'm glad you've found the courage to know who you are for yourself (which I have also done) and that you have also found the courage to know where you are going and to act on it (which I haven't).

Well done.

Best wishes to you and your wife.

Sarah...

Hi everyone thanks again for your support. The deed was done last night and daughter and son in law were told. After the devastating shock and the tears we were able to have a fairly good talk. This will take a long time to recover from but it had to be done She is talking to her mum who has gone through the process, I think it helps that we are still together. I feel a mixture of being a rotten father but also relief as its out in the open, I can now get on with my life.
Thanks again

I feel a mixture of being a rotten father xx

Hey now you listen, you are not a rotten father ok!!

One good thing you have is a wife who is ok with you, and hopefully this will help your daughter with what she has been told, she has someone to talk to and so does your wife.

[Celeste]

Hi Stevie,Honesty does not equal being rotten,you are giving them a lesson in standing behind what you believe in.

[stevie b]

Thanks ladies, I am really proud of my wife, She is spending the night with my daughter to give her support.
