I wonder if for Christmas my presents will have my given name on them instead of Adrian, or if my mom will put Adrian on them. I also just got home and my brother was here and he just gave me a hug and said he'd love me no matter what. Now the only people that don't know is my extended family and one older sister.
One of my sisters has a boyfriend and he's convinced I'm just going through a phase. Deep down I know he's wrong, but I can't help but sometimes worry that once everyone is calling me Adrian and using he/him pronouns that I'll realize I was wrong or something. I know this isn't true because being called my given name and people using the wrong pronouns hurts so much, even if they don't know that I'm trans yet.
