Hi Guy`s ,

Well it will be front page news tomorrow

How do you find the courage to tell someone who may or may not be close that you are transgender ?

I don`t mean people on the web or friends you have here , rather people you come in contact with on a regular basis , like your butcher , a store clerk you have become friendly with , people like that.

So me having ask this question , you must either be asking or know , yes I am transgender , M t F.

I have not done anything medically , as my financial situation at present does not allow it , however after many years as a caregiver for my late parents , I have been hoping to re-invent myself.

So no HRT , would like to , but only through a doctor , and I have met a trans doctor near me , who would be willing to work with me.

So once I find away to bring income in , instead of taking money out of my nest egg , then I plan to look for a better and safer place to live and once that happens , start living the truth.

I am old school , set in my ways , in many ways. However I always like to think that new adventures are on the horizon.

OK , so there it is , some of you might remember I was fairly messed up in the middle of last Sept. , really tearing myself apart as to wether I should tell my T or not. A level of trust was forming and I thought , now or never and I was tired of living a lie. However those who were so kind and helped that week before I told my T , I will always have you in my heart for standing with me , although at the time you had no idea why.

Once I told my T on Sept 27th , it felt like I could climb any mountain or forge any stream ( I told you I am old , but inside just a kid !! ).
I was never able to even tell myself I was trans , I could never believe that , but I always knew I was not me.
After much thought of knowing I always knew , it was time , now that I had someone I could tell.

But since then , like I said some folks I correspond with know , but real life , only my T knows.

I don`t feel I have to tell anyone , certainly my doctor of 19 years should know , but I face the same fear , me may kick me out of his office !!

OK , sorry for the long post , but those who know me know I could write a few more words , if I needed to !!

Thanks again guy`s , O__ BTW , I consider myself straight trans , I love women so much I want to be them. So unless there is another term , thats it , as I could never see myself with a guy.
Mind you I have nothing against anyone in the LGBT community and I have always supported them , ( us ).

See I told you I could write a couple of extra words , so before I write too much , ...

Later
