Well yesterday i told 2 of my female friends me.
I told them that I myself am still not sure how far i want to go just yet but i have always wanted to be a woman, and that i am seriously looking at the transition.
Sarah my friend i told via text message, she needed cheering up and i knew i could trust her with what i was telling her. Not only did it cheer her up but she was excited by it. She even admitted that she kinda knew, or had wondered about it.
She told me she didn't care what my name was or how i looked, she was still a friend i could count on and that she would be there for me.
I told Mel as well, she was all excited and told me that i shouldn't care what people think and that i should be true to myself and if i wasn't i would only end up hurting myself and being unhappy in the long run and that she would always be my friend
From these 2 comments, i think i have more confidence to tell my other friends sooner rather then later. Lets just hope they all respond along the same lines.
*hugs*
