My mom and my best friend (cis woman). My mom immediately accepted me and told me when I came out to her that she would love and support me no matter what I’m about to tell her. She accompanied me to every appointment whenever she could so far.

My best friend immediately made me feel like one of the girls and treated me like any other woman. She was the second person I came out to. I can talk to her about anything and she is very empathetic and gives me great support emotionally.

Edit: but I also have to add that I didn’t make any negative experiences since my coming out so far.

Personally, my biggest support has been my wife who has been with me every step of the way. Even the steps that terrified us both.

But also, I have found my family that I have been searching for my entire life. I found them here and on the blahaj matrix chat rooms.

I hope they all know just how special they are to me. They’ve given me a space to be myself and I feel like I finally fit in somewhere.

When I say they’re my family, I truly honestly mean that.

There is one special person that I’ve met here that I know for a fact will always be a part of my life. I wouldn’t trade them for the world. ❤️
