First step

I came out to my wife the other day. The first step, as prescribed by Dr Tsoi. Talked to her about my condition. She took it quite calmly, though she is still in denial. Again, it wasn't easy bringing up the subject, but she has heard about the condition before and thus made it easier to talk. But I didn't share too much details with her, I didn't want to flood her with too much details in so short a time. Didn't want to shock her too much.

Being totally unexpected, she is still at a loss, though she is sticking with me for the time being. We will need to talk about this again to see how to move on from here. But first, I need to know what it is that I myself want, what is the true me that I want to become.

Stepping out the first time

I stepped out dressed today, for the first time. It was a bit scary, and I was very self-conscious. Being 1.8m tall didn't help, I stood out like a sore thumb. Plus new shoes never help too... now I have blisters on my feet! I took the train to a shopping mall, where I tried to shop around. Although I managed to buy some clothes at Cotton On and some things at Daiso, I didn't managed to achieve my aim of getting my long dresses to complete my wardrobe. Still, I was told that this was quite an achievement for someone stepping out the first time.
