Okay tell me if I handled this right, this is the conversation:
[Redacted]:
Hey Anon, I was just wanted to let you know that I came out as trans on my birthday yesterday. I'm sure that's pretty shocking for you, since you've known me since high school, but it's been a long time coming for me, and I only realized it myself not too long ago. My feminine name is [Redacted], and my pronouns are she/her. I'm not so worried about the dead-naming thing yet, but it's nice to put it in writing. I've already told my close family and friend L, and they've been wonderful support. I know you wouldn't do this, but if you could please keep this to yourself for the time being, I would be grateful; I just want everyone to hear it from me directly. As you can imagine it's been a whirlwind the past few days, and I'm sorry I couldn't find a way to say this in person. At Friend L's suggestion I'm taking a soft approach.
Much love,
[Redacted]
Anon:
Everyone goes through their own journey through life, I will continue to be your friend and support your decisions. I hope this change brings you happiness. I will admit I am worried that you may end up alienated in certain ways. I've heard stories of people that transition and end up worse mentally, and I don't want to see you in that situation or even worse in a position where you may attempt self harm. I've been your friend for 15 years and I just don't want to see you get hurt. I will do as you ask and let you tell everyone else yourself.

Thanks Anon
Should I have said more?
