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

I would suggest sitting down with him and talking about transgender people in general and then slowly but surely get to tell him the truth. Don't hold off the truth for too long because then he might feel lied to even if he is ok with you being transgender. Remember some people (even though there is nothing with being trans and I would date a trans person myself) they don't want to be with a trans guy/girl. You have to respect their opinions and feelings. If your boyfriend is ok with dating someone transgender then I would not worry as much and I would not try sugar-coating it and just getting to the point. If you know your boyfriend might not be ok or your not sure then I would try going over the topic before breaking the news to him. Remember the longer you wait the harder it will be and your boyfriend might not be too happy for you keeping it from him for to long!

My advice for you is to wait until you are ready. After you feel like you're ready and want to tell him, do it the way that suits you the most, doesn't matter if it's going to be a joke or a serious conversation. if you feel like someone else's presence would help you tell him, bring that person. Just remember one thing, you are beautiful and loved and perfect just the way you are and you don't need to pretend you are someone you're not.. if he doesn't see it he didn't deserve you in the first place. Good luck!!

I am sorry, (name of boy), but I am actually Transgender. I didn't mean to hurt you, but it's what I am. I'm sorry. I did love you, but things change. I really want you to know this because I don't want you to hold onto me when nothing will work out for the two of us anymore. I do know I am not the only girl in this world. You'll be able to find someone who really is worthy of your love. The feelings I once had for you were real, but knowing that I am actually not what I used to think I was, I felt like I really need to confess to you about this one. Therefore, please forgive me, but I need to go. I hope you become happy.

Sometimes the best way to deal with change is being comfortable with it ourselves first, those around who love us the most will accept if we accept ourselves. If they don't than they don't deserve to be apart of our amazing journey. You should never let someone tear you down for who you truly are. It is important to stand up for who are you and what you feel. If your boyfriend loves and supports you he will understand. There is plenty of support out there both for yourself and him to better understand the transition as well as what each of you are feeling and going through. Best of luck!

Sit him down during a time when the both of you are in a positive head space and tell him. Afterwards, be sure to stay open to any questions or concerns he may have. If he does not come around at first, give him time. Sometimes it takes a while for people to fully support each other in these situations. You have to be fully prepared for the outcome not being in your favor, however, and try to understand where he might be coming from. He might be shocked at first but give him time and try to be as understanding as possible.

Maybe ask to sit down with him, and be honest about your journey and struggle. I can imagine that transitioning was a really big important part of your life, and in this way it’s something you want him to know about. I hope that he’ll be understanding, and you can remind him that the love you have won’t change, it’s just something that he should know because it’s part of what makes you who you are. Talk to him and explain how you are and were feeling, and remember to be open with him about it, so that you don’t feel like you’re trying to please him by hiding parts of it. Good luck, you’ll be okay :)

I don’t think there is an easy way of telling him so, but I don’t see this a secret to be kept for long in a serious relationship. Therefore, first make sure that you have reached the point that he is the one; the one you love and the one you trust. Then choose the right time and place to tell him about it, keeping in mind he will very likely have so many questions and may eventually need time to digest all the answers. It is preferable that you notify your trusted family member or trusted friend that you will be discussing this subject. This helps you find the support you need after you finish talking to him.

create a safe and open environment and calmly start and open ended discussion where you both can rational express how you feel and be prepared for any questions and concerns that either of you have. try to be willing to talk through things. you know your boyfriend and your situation the best so do what you feel comfortable doing. also know that at the end of the day there are always people here to listen to you. even in the case that he reacts negatively you have people here still to listen and who want to provide support. try to be open to new possibilities in the event that things don't go how you plan.

I will tell him without hesitation about my true gender, no matter how he would react. As long as, I have been an honest partner to him and provides him the love that he deserves. Because in life, our imperfections will never be the basis of love. If he wants to leave me behind because of that, then I've got to tighten myself from what the consequences is. That's how life works, we cant hide everything and that's part of our individuality. We just cant fake it nor hide it. Instead the best way is to explain it to him and let him decide.

Tell him whenever *you* are ready. Don't rush things, it will only stress you. Know that there's nothing wrong about being transgender, that's beautiful. Figure out a way to tell your boyfriend. You could do it in person, text or call. Another example: write a letter (or on your phone) where you tell your boyfriend that you're transgender. If you're too scared to tell him, you can make him read the letter. Know that your boyfriend will react. He can be confused, sad, supportive, understanding or disgusted (i really hope he won't) I hope this helped you. I wish you luck! Take care
