    you told everyone else before your own girlfriend?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    not everyone, my parent''s don't know

    I'm glad at the moment
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru

    Hi Jester21

    Well done for having the courage to open up to your friends. I'm glad it went well and that they're accepting of it, you must feel like a big weight has been lifted from your mind.

    How well does your girlfriend know the friends that you've told? I'm asking because it would be a horrible way for her to find out about this from someone else - she deserves to hear it from you first. Also, she may feel upset if she knows that you've told lots of other people before her.

    Only you can decide when is the right time to tell her, but she needs to know eventually, so waiting is just holding off the inevitable.

    Good luck, whatever you decide

    Jester, we love to know what's going on. But you don't have to post a brand new thread every time.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Hi Jester
    I'm glad you've decided to tell her - it's the respectful thing to do.
    Also, just to say that the more details you can give other users about your situation, the more they are able to help. It can be frustrating when people are trying to offer you help but they only have half the story. Of course, I'm not suggesting you tell us stuff that is personal if you don't want to, but just to bear in mind that others may feel more inclined to help if you can tell them a little more.
    :)

    Hi Jester 21,

    Congrats on telling your girlfriend and her being supportive :yes:

    It's completely up to you whether you are ready to tell your parents yet or not. There is a small possibility they might hear it from someone else, which isn't ideal, however at the end of the day it's your choice and it's important to do this at your own pace.

    Do let us know how you get on, good luck *hug*
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    thanks, i will do :)

    Dose anyone know of transgender (m-f prefered) who can talk me though how to talk to parents about coming out please.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Hi Jester

    It's great that you're thinking this through so well before telling your parents, hopefully if you approach it right they'll be understanding.

    Have you heard of the Beaumont Society? They have lots of advice for people who are transgender or cross-dress, including a useful resource page for young people.

    I've also found this guide by Chrysalis on how to tell your family you're transgender - it might help to read it through. I hope it's helpful.

    Good luck, let us know how it goes :)

    I'm really depressed now, my ex is giving me shit about doing something that i shouldn't do because she's done it:crying:.

    Then she said i should of told her right away, but i was so scared too, and that now i should tell my parents. :banghead::nervous::crying:

    I feel really shit at the moment. I just really need a hug and reasurents that everything is going to be ok.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Hi Jester 21,

    Sorry you're feeling so down *hug*

    It's great that you have told many of your friends and they all support you!

    You say your ex is upset with you about something you shouldn't have done? Is this something you can discuss with her and sort out?
    Hopefully she can understand that it was hard to tell her (or anyone) straight away and that the important thing is how you feel about it now.

    It's completely up to you when you feel ready to tell your family, try not to let anyone make you feel pressured into rushing it :yes:
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    aww, thanks

    To be fair we both have done something that i don't want to discuss it on here
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
