Coming out is scary

Transition without saying anything and just gradually start telling people to call you by your new name:
-
Just gaslight everyone.
"What do you mean? (New Name) is what I've gone by my whole life. You must be crazy or something."
-
Bonus points if you have a unisex name and don't even change it.
-
See, I do, but I still want to change it.
At first I was like, "I sure got lucky with the only neutral name of the three." But now I have a chosen name. (Hardly used, but darn it I think I really like it.)

I am tempted to just gaslight everyone around me once I get the girl meds - "what do you mean? I've had boobs since I was a teenager, stop being crazy"
-
Why come out when you can gaslight?
-
I might just have to steal this

They'll figure it out eventually. Worked for me 😁

When your parents are accepting enough of gender nonconformity, it might not work.

Yeah I think I have that problem. I've had my hair long for ~8 years, am regularly wearing nail polish, I have a long skirt I like to wear around the house and nobody cares. Should just come out already, but that's scawy
-
The longer its been, the harder it gets to come out. Eventually I decided to wear a bra with shirt that made it kinda obvious I was wearing a bra to bait my parents into starting a conversation I could use as an excuse to bring it up finally.

It's scary but it can also be freeing. Stay safe though.
