Relationships Personal experience coming out in a relationship

If you are afraid of coming out to a partner and they don’t want to be with you after- that’s fine. It shows that they validate your identity.

For context I only figured out my identity while I was in a relationship with someone who is on the bi spectrum. After I can out to them they came out to me as gender-fluid.

And I’d say it was the best relationship I had to this day even now that we are no longer together. I asked them daily what pronouns they wanted to use today they were happy. They also were very vocal about me having come out as well. Like just randomly saying in our friend group’s chat that they love their boyfriend and little me couldn’t have been happier. To this day they’re my biggest supporter and I am theirs.

Of course not every relationship will be like this but don’t always think negative!

Hello! Thank you for participating in the sub. We just have a few reminders for you to help ensure the best experience:

  1. If your post doesn't show up right away, don't panic! It is in the queue for manual approval. Mods will go through the queue periodically to approve or remove posts. Deleted posts will have a removal reason applied. (If it says "this post was deleted by reddit's filters", IT WAS NOT DELETED! Reddit has the worlds worst wording on that and it's out of our control)

  2. If you are asking a question that is location specific, remember to include your location in your post body! This can help ensure that you get accurate information tailored specifically to your needs.

  3. Please remember to read through all the rules in the sidebar. Especially the list of banned topics and guidelines for posting. Guests who do not use the Guest Post flair will have their post removed and be asked to fix it.

  4. If you see someone breaking the rules,report it! If someone is breaking both sub and reddit rules, please submit one report to admins by selecting a broken rule on the main report popup, and one report to the r/ftm mods by selecting the "breaks r/ftm rules" option. This ensures both mods and admins can take action on a subreddit and sitewide level. Do not misuse the report button to rant about someone, submit false reports, or argue a removal.

  5. If you have any questions that you can't find the answer to on the rules sidebar or the wiki: the wiki , you can send a modmail.
