Hello ladies,
I'm posting this today, because I constantly go on and on about my cousin and my family relationships in the main chat - but I just wanted to share this because it made me take steps that made me feel depressed for weeks.
I deleted my account, some of you may know that. I lost a lot of friends in the process, but I hope I can slowly gain them back if they'll let me back into their life.
I was pressured by my cousin to stop dressing for good, because he felt I needed hobbies, or more friends, or at least to hang out with his friends more often because I'm so... "isolated".
When in reality, I just started being myself for the first time in my life! The long and short of this girls, is that for the first time in my life - I'm finally.. me. That took a lot of time to figure out, but now that I have and I'm ready to take the next step - I'm not going to be able to see my family anymore. Unless my great grandmother passes. Perhaps they will meet me for coffee w/o my great grandma involved, but by isolating myself from my great grandma because of my choice to transition, this will most certainly tear our current family structure to pieces.
I'll start gaining more friends, off and on main chat. I'm not afraid about that.
I'm afraid that I will lose my family though. However, I have heard the term that, "The blood of the coven is thicker than the water of the womb."
Still speaks to me to this day.
What are we to do? The bloodline is always thick but so is stubbornness in the bloodline. Welcome back and I wish you all the best. Hugs - Terrisa
Welcome back ; with family it surely is difficult as it's a huge motivator in life. In my case family doesn't know and likely not, except my wife who is cautiously supportive and I'm happy with that . I need to be who I feel comfortable being even if only for short periods. To change or not expressing my feelings would hurt in many ways. I keep all in its separate life's but I know in time they will meet and that will be the day I know will be a change I hope will find acceptance for all ,but I just don't know. Happy your back, your among a family here who cares very much.
Hugs!!!

Welcome back and glad you decided to be you. I read a quote sometime back. It goes something like this " It's better to dislike me for what I am, rather than like be for something I am not. " Hugs Karley
Maybe you can dress secretly at home and not seek advice or acceptance from family members. You might be able to find a local CD/TG group and hook up with them.
