Hi, everyone! I just found this site while looking for quick advice, decided to take the advice of the welcome message and post here. I'm actually getting ready to go come out as a trans woman to my best friend. He's the nicest guy I know and there's no way he won't support me, but I'm so nervous my whole body is aching. Wish me luck, I'll let report back later! ()
Thanks so much! It went great! He knows who I am and really reminded me that I'm still his friend. And he's got a sense of humor that is preparing me for some potentially tough questions from people later I think he knew I needed a laugh And thanks again~
4NN4.....Hello and a great big LGBTQIA+ welcome to Empty Closets! I can remember the first post that I made on EC. I was desperate for help and I got the help that I so needed. I hope that we can help you in the same way that I received help so many years ago. The most important thing to remember about Empty Closets is that we do care about you! There are a number of sub-forums here on EC...why don't you check them out and then feel free to join in the conversations! In particular there is a sub-forum titled “Gender Identity and Expression” if you post there I think you’ll find people who will understand what you are dealing with. This is a safe community of caring and supportive people and we will do our best to help you blend into the community. You can ask questions in any of the Sub-forums by creating a new thread or by joining in a conversation-thread that is already going. You can also post a message on anyone's Profile Page after you have made at least ten posts yourself. If you have a question that is somewhat private you can always send a Private Message to any Staff Member. Normally Private Messages can only be exchanged between two Full Members, but a PM to a Staff Member is an exception. We are so glad that you have found us here on Empty Closets. …..David
