Coming out to people close to you can be hard, especially when it's a significant other. However scary it may be, it's important to remember that this person cares about you! Coming out for me has been a long task, and while the build up is scary the relief I feel afterwards when I can start going by my name and pronouns around the people I care about is amazing! However, not everyone is immediately ready to come out when they realize themselves who they are. I still haven't come out to my parents, and I'm not sure if I ever will. Remember that coming out is first and foremost a personal choice, and if you aren't ready to come out you don't have to. You don't owe anybody anything, and as long as you're comfortable, your choices are what matter most!

Just open up, he will love you no matter what, sit him down and tell him, don’t be afraid as that’s the biggest fear to overcome. He will love you for you.

There's no one answer that works for everyone. I would suggest by educating him on what transgender means, and making sure he knows being respected is important. He may not know exactly how to respond, but hopefully he'll be understanding. Accepting yourself first is key

I came out as transgender to my partner about 3 years ago and I just remember sort of explaining about how I'd always sort of felt like I wasn't the gender I was assigned at birth and that I had found other people like me and I'd discovered that I finally felt like I fit in somewhere, in this online community of people who identified as trans. It wasn't an easy talk, and I think I might have led up to it for a few weeks by talking about the experiences of others (without naming anyone, just saying "my new friend...") and I think that sort of paved the way and I was able to gauge his reaction first and help him understand what it meant to be trans before I decided to tell him I was.

Start off by sitting down with him and basically explain it like you would to a child. begin to explain what it is and when you began to feel you are transgender. For more detail Miles Mckenna (Mileschronicles on youtube) explains in more depth

Slowly ease into it. Drop hints here and there. See how he takes things and try to get his opinion anonymously about such things. I am sure you will get through this. All the very best!

Let them know you want to talk to them about something and tell them in a semi quiet place. Be confident and do not worry about anything, neither their reaction nor their actions. Your boyfriend must be in shock, so let it settle in. STAY STRONG AND PROUD OF WHO YOU ARE!!!

Coming out is never easy but be honest with the ones you love because honesty is the most important thing next to originality.
