Here I am in mid November, life is flying by! I'm continuing on in my relationship, and it still all feels very new and is going well. Ive been living full time, and I'm working on getting the legal stuff in order, but have yet to complete all that.
I'm going to be sending my coming out letter to the rest of my family very soon. Its probably bad timing just before the Holidays but I couldn't bear the thought of being in hiding about my issue anymore when I'm with family. So it may be a lonely Holiday, but I just gotta do this! I'm very fearful of sending this letter. My strategy is to really explain how this is not a new issue, but one that I have now come to terms with. I want them to understand how deeply important this is, and that I have not come to my conclusions lightly. I'm anticipating negative reactions, hopefully I'm wrong.
I have lots of support around me, in the event that things blow up! or don't go over well. Ive always been so passive with my family in the past, this bold coming out will be a test of my new attitude and self confidence. Heres where the rubber really meets the road. This is the hard part.
