Help, I think im trans
Hi Reddit.
As the subject title, I need some help/advice.
Im currently 39 m, who for the longest time has thought I was trans. I just never had the guts to do anything about it. Hence this post .
Thought all my childhood I used to wear my sisters clothes (which I hope she didn't notice but I can never be sure haha) and wanted all the feminine toys like barbies etc. I once managed to buy my own clothes which I kept hidden, until my father found them and well let's say I was sore for a few days afterwards. (Long in the past, and he's beyond the grave now anyways).
The issue is this. The old I'm getting, the more and more this need to be feminine grows. I even cross dress when I'm alone in the house.
I say this because i'm currently in a long term relationship with the mother of my two daughters (6 & 2) and following a few carefully probed conversations, she has unfortunately openly admitted that she's not a supporter of the LGBTQ community.
I know if I come out, I loose my family.
But how do I keep this all in.?
Do I come out anyways?
(P.s my sister already knows how I feel and is supportive either way.)
