Random thought

May 09, 2012 11:38

So I had a random thought today (I know, what a rare thing, lol. This one is transgender related though, lol). Ok it is more of a question. But I am kinda wondering if people that I knew/know from high school were surprised by me coming out as a guy. I think what sparked this was I contacted an old instructor of mine for flute ensemble. I was seeing if she would be available for something at my son's school. Of course I contacted her under my new name (which is a new first and last name now). So I had to identify myself under my old name. So now I wonder if people that knew me in high school were shocked when I came out. Some of them are friends with me on FB. But we rarely talk. Honestly, no one really talks to me. It has been that way since about my junior year in high school. I started secluding myself since I had a suicide plan. And then when I got married it didn't get better because I had already cut contact and now I was married unlike many of my "friends" so there wasn't much for relating.

Anyways, so now I am debating asking if people were shocked on FB. However, I feel shallow if I do. I mean, what does it really matter? I also fear getting no responses since basically no one I know from high school replies to my updates, only my new sexual assault survivor friends and sometimes random family members respond.
