Came out 3 times this week.



Backstory

Time #1: To my English class during my senior presentation, happened completely opposite of how I expected, and everything went great

Time #2: To my mom. Her reaction was also better than I expected but then again I wasn't really sure how she'd respond, but she's accepting and supportive.

Time #3: To my best friend who's currently deployed. He reacted exactly how I hoped he wouldn't: I told him and he instantly got offline with no response. I really hope I didn't just lose him.

You are brave

Thank you both :) Two of them were the last people I needed to tell, my class I told just as a hope of them understanding it more and making it safer for the other trans* person that just came out.
