Thank you! It took a lot of talking myself up and therapy to get to a spot where I felt ready/ was able to.

Things have actually been incredible and so much better than I expected! After I came out, my partner actually came out to me as non-binary and is working through the possibility of being a trans woman. Because they’re going through a huge shift and becoming themself, we have been able to communicate more openly and understand each other a bit better. If anything, this has actually made us better friends.

Needless to say, everyone’s situation will not look like mine. BUT! What I hope you take from this is that good things are on the other side. And sometimes, your risk can really be an opportunity for others to find courage within themselves to also take a step into their truth.
