Hi Jenny. Honey, EVERYONE IS SCARED AT FIRST. God knows I was. Like Gabby stated, I came out at 73, so the job was not in question as I’m retired. BUT!, I have a son and daughter in law and grand kids and great grand kids whom I still have to come out to. First sit down and search within yourself. Are you just a crossdresser, or are you transgendered. Yes! you may need counseling. I knew from a young age that I was both transgendered and “gay”(as a woman, I prefer men as sex partners). I have been married 3 times. Divorced 2 times, widowed 1 time. Raised 4 children, 2 sons and 2 daughters, and an adopted daughter. I’ve also buried 5 of my children. 3 daughters from cancer, 2 sons at birth, that always hurts, so I know pain. My last wife (bless her) passed away after a long illness. THAT! hurt me very deeply.
Well today, I’m M2F, I’ve now been on HRT for almost 6 months, I live openly en femme 24/7, and have a boyfriend. I’m finally happy with life. No More Depression!! I’M ME!!
BUT! Take Your Time Sweetheart. Think it through. If you feel you need to transition, Then begin slow. If Not, then LIVE as a man. BUT BE HAPPY WITH YOURSELF.
Good Luck.
Hugs and Kisses,
Michele
