Scared of outing / should I do it?
Hello I'm a trans guy and I'm so so scared of telling my friends that I'm trans. I'm scared that they won't accept me and make fun of me or continue see me as a girl.
I really want to tell them so they may stop calling me "she" and a "girl" .
I'm hoping that if I tell them, especially my guy friends will treat me more like they treat other friends of them who are a boy because it's not the same when you are friends with them "as a girl" .
(I heard that I told them already when I was drunk but they act like I never said something like that , except asking my sister but she said "i don't know" so im reallyyyy unsure If I should do it and get the reactions I want)
They are the last people I have actually, since I really struggle with meeting new people because of social anxiety. I just want people to see me for who I am : (
It sounds like you're dealing with a lot of fear and uncertainty about telling your friends that you're trans, and it's completely understandable given the importance of their acceptance to you. While I can't predict exactly how your friends will react, I want you to know that you deserve to be surrounded by people who accept and support you for who you are. It's possible that your friends might need some time to process and understand, and their initial reactions may not be perfect. However, true friends will ultimately respect your identity and treat you with the dignity and understanding you deserve. If you do decide to share this part of yourself with them, it might be helpful to approach the conversation with honesty and vulnerability, expressing your feelings and experiences in a way that helps them understand why this is important to you.
