Short before sleep, lights already off, a night in July 2018
me: .... The closer the local pride event gets, the more I realize I'm not a man
...
then-partner: oh! Also an enby??
me: no...
then-partner: so..a woman?
...
me: ... Yes
That's how I came out and finally accepted this reality about myself. Three days later, on the local pride event, I went out fem presenting - with a lot of help from my then-partner:

I had told myself that this is a safe way to experiment, because I could always say I was just an ally crossdressing.. luckily never had to pull that card.
A lot has changed since then, besides my initial fears that things would just take forever, everything just worked out somehow. I'm happy with who I am. Still, it wasn't easy - but absolutely worth it.
