How do I tell my boyfriend that I'm transgender?

Sit him down when you feel it's safe to talk and explain the situation to him. If he reacts overly negatively, he may not be worth keeping.

You can always begin the conversation by bringing up trans people in general to see his stance on the matter then ask him hypothetical questions about how he'd feel if the person he was dating was trans. if all goes well, it should be relatively safe to come out to him.

Honesty is something that is most definitely necessary in a relationship. Being honest can help to strengthen the bond between you and your partner, but coming out is hard enough. Try to be honest and express how you're still the same person that they love, just a little different. If they love you as much as they say they do, they'll accept it and love you no matter what, but if things don't work out as wanted, be prepared for it. Preparation is key to coming out. 💖

In my experience, I came out as transgender to my girlfriend by first talking to her about trans* people in the media to see how she would react. A few days after this, I sat down with her and had a talk about it with no distractions. I suggest telling your boyfriend that you're telling him this because you want to be completely honest with him, and you care about him. When I came out to my girlfriend, she was initially a bit shocked, and felt like I was "hiding" this from her. She understood after I explained a bit more, but I suggest you do this earlier.

Based on personal experience, worse case scenario is that you break up. And I they break up with you for that, they weren't worth it anyways.

Bring up the subject of transgender people at first, see how he reacts to that. Then you should probably check if he's transphobic in any way, and if he is, you should either wait with telling him or dump him. If he's not transphobic and reacts well to people being trans you could gather your courage and tell him :) Good luck dear!

That is hard to do. I’m not going to lie. Having been there my self, I can give some hints from what I went through, but your mileage will vary, I can assure you of that. Every person is different, that is sort of a good thing and a bad thing. The good thing is that people are willing to listen on average. My best approach for talking to someone, and outing yourself to them, is do so slowly. Bring up the subject as a nebulous concept to start. “Hey I just say something on a law regarding transgender people passing somewhere and it was good. Don’t you think?” It’s not about you then, but it will let you know if it is safe to take the next step of talking more directly. With me, it was a month or so of that, and then just getting tired of that dance and coming right out with it one day. With other people after though, I have, because of where I am, be upfront. That depends on you and if you feel safe doing so. For the reveal, there are sort of two considerations: have you transitioned already and are just outing yourself to this individual that didn’t know you before, or are you going to start transition and you are telling those around you that you will need their support more than ever? If you are going to tell someone that you have trasitioned before you met them, be careful. Seriously. Just like the first date, go somewhere public, have backup on standby, and don’t let your guard down. This is going to be a big revelation to them, and a change in their world view. People, despite their best intentions, can feel threatened, and lash out with such a change. Make sure that you are safe though. If you are going to transition and are asking for support, don’t be surprised if they promise it, and you don’t get it. Quite honestly, most transgender people lose contact with many of the people that said they would be supportive fairly quickly Nandi oddly enough the people that are ambiguous are the ones that take up the slack and become the best allies. I really am trying to be brief, but the question is really more complex than one would think. I believe I covered sort of a base line on that though. Feel free to send a message if there are further questions on the subject.

First and foremost, make sure you KNOW the situation will be safe. If you think he may react badly/are nervous about a violent reaction, a public, well-populated place like a coffee place or fast food restaurant might be your best option. Use terminology he'll understand and explain that you're not changing as a person.

Sit him down and have a serious conversation. Be prepared for him to not accept it well but also be prepared for acceptance. Good luck :)

Well he needs to accept you of how you are and who you are. Have a talk with him alone and confess with him.
