This is actually one of the saddest topics. Also, should note, this isn't just a hetero thing. But, it seems a lot less frequent in other couple pairings. It's genuinely gross how much pressure people are put under to stay in these situations and "affirm" their partners. Yeesh.

Just say you hate trans genders

[@CavedInCacti]

I agree. If a husband or wife is straight and their partner transitions into the other gender then it shouldn't be unusual for them to want to break up or divorce. Their parnter transitioning isn't going to the other partner gay, bi or, pan. However, I think Chris coming out was for the best because if they had his this want then it would've put a strain on their relationship with his wife and child that likely would've resulted in a divorce anyways. It's etter to get a divorce with someone you aren't going to be compatible with before a massive confrontation than after one.

[@bigcauc7530]

Exactly. They make these wild claims to basically say it means nothing and that there is no binary to gender, and then they start comfortably in the binary system of gender. You can't have these conversations because they'll just insult and label to silence you. Society is falling apart. That's really all there is to it. The ones left will be those who didn't fall for the nonsense. Maybe this is nature's funny way of weeding out the weak ones to self correct. We are still in the survival of the fittest paradigm. It just doesn't look like predator and prey anymore. It's weak and strong minds.

Not a trans situation but something similar happened to a good friend from high school recently. Her husband of 20+ years told her that he was gay and had always been so. He packed up and left and she was now facing a world in which she'd just spent the past two decades of her life essentially blindsided. What made it worse is that the public reaction was that "he was so brave for coming out" and "it took a lot of courage" while there seemed to be little sympathy for the woman who sacrificed her years to help raise their child and support his career. The public support only seems to flow one way and that's truly sad.

My mom was a transwidow before there was really a word for it. My mom back in the 70s started finding her clothes were stretched out and worn. Turns out my dad was starting to wear her clothes and then asking for her to buy him his own underwear, slips, etc. My mom thought it was super weird but she also thought maybe this is something wives have to do. It wasnt until one day when I was born and he was holding me (an infant girl) that he asked what she would do if he was sexually attracted to me. That was it. My mom left. Back then states did not go after chidl support in the way they do now. He was in a different state, my mom didnt have any money, etc, She kept all of this a secret since she felt like she would be judged as the problem. I didnt find out until years later when my "sperm donor" tried to connect with me. I TRIED at the time - but then he got awfully weird. He was a "trans lesbian" and he started to send me constant selfies of his cleavage, his legs, etc - and the straw for me was when he would send me Christmas cards he made of half naked women dressed as santas. I am grateful in the sense he reached out to me since I was able to connect with my half sister - who I found out a few years later had been molested by our sperm donor before her parents divorced. He is an AGP of the textbook definition and a predator. Truthfully he should not be able to be in private womens spaces.

[@retaliationeffort2864]

My ex started cross dressing and started identifying as a woman soon after we had discovered I was pregnant in 2014. I had tried to help him work it out but in the end had to leave because he became manipulative and dangerous with his drunk rages. Years later, after analyzing it, I think he had a breakdown. He had a terrible childhood and when confronted with the responsibility of a child he just lost it. Possibly because he was afraid he'd be like his dad. And no he wouldn't go to counseling for it. I can say he had a bad childhood. His parents were divorced and his father was abusive. Both parents doing drugs and he bounced back and forth between houses because he had behavior issues. He never had a stable environment. He recently passed away after overdosing to which I am heart broken. I'm not talkimg bad about him rather I want everyone to learn from it. A stable environment with loving parents is essential for a child's development and well being. Love your children. Hug them everyday and don't talk to them like you talk to yourself. Don't be too harsh on them. They're kids. And, for the love of God, keep them off of cellphones and tablets. Let them play outside.

[@nightshocker6908]

sorry for your lose. as for the stable environment. dont forget that a healthy stable environment includes a male and female figure in the childs life as in Father and mother. It is proven fact that kids with both parents do better in life. but it seems that this is slowly disappearing and it terrifies me for the future of my children. We all should be putting our efforts towards making sure all families have a healthy stable environment. kids really are our future. Adults were kids at one point and the choices made when they were kids effect the choices in adulthood. it is all linked. As for technology limit use to 2 hr a day or less is good.

[@Escorducarla]

This feels like the even more extreme version of losing a partner after they come out as gay and leave for a same-sex relationship. A lot of the same sentiments were expressed by the widow/ers, that it was impossible to grieve because they would instantly viewed as horrible people, that affirmation was the only "right" way to react. But it is a death, and we should be permitted to mourn. Your relationship has died, your future, your hopes and dreams with this other person. That is devastating! To be essentially told that we aren't "allowed" to mourn in those situations, to feel betrayed or hurt or abandoned, is a cruelty. It is a cruelty committed by a subset of the population that only wants to do for themselves and doesn't want any sort of intrusion that might make them feel like what they're doing is wrong. "Please don't call me out on my crap, it makes me feel bad" is a heck of a thing to affirm.

I didn't realise there was a name for it, but I am in fact a transwidow (ex husband came out to me 3 months after our wedding). I was effectively pressured into accepting it, being told that I was the only one that didn't take it well, while all their friends and family accepted it and encouraged the transition. I on the other hand questioned everything; my sexuality, my future, hell I even questioned my own femininity. I accepted their transition, and offered to help, gave them some of my old clothes, but they instead sought counsel elsewhere, while I sat at home. I was left behind, nobody asked how I was, how I was taking it/handling it. The marriage ended when I caught them on dating apps (twice) and then THEY told ME they didn't love me anymore and wanted a divorce. I moved to a different country to start again. It's been hard. Thanks Sydney for actually bringing this to people's attention, I don't think everyone realises that when someone transitions and finally comes to terms with who they are, their partner also has a lot of work to do, and also, in a way, has to transition, against their will. I was called a bigot, a transphobe, a homophobe, all these names under the sun because I wanted a husband, not a wife.

Otherwise I don't think it would've ever really needed to come up, especially to the public/ our family/ our friends. I ended up with a guy it doesn't matter to me or anyone else anymore🤷🏻‍♀️

[@HumanLandslide]

I'm bi and my husband has always been aware. I fully agree with you. Suddenly realizing you're attracted to the sex opposite of your partner's means that there is someone else you're attracted to, which is very close to cheating in my book.

[@billmartins5545]

It just goes to show that they lied to you for all these years until they tied you down with marriage. The expectation might be that you're going to be ok letting them experiment, lol. I'm a really accepting person when it comes to Lgb. If my partner waited until marriage to tell me he's bi, I'd reconsider the marriage because clearly there must be more going on otherwise he would have told me earlier. It's just trickle truthing until he would get to the core which is probably that he's actually gay and I'm his beard, or that he's trans and wants to transition, or he wants to be in an open relationship. All of these are deal breakers and they know, which is why they keep this from you until they trapped you with marriage, sometimes even with kids. Just look on the mypartneristrans subreddit.

My mother came out as "trans" when I was 15. My parents are still married, but she basically doesn't allow my father to find a woman... Once there was an incident when my father fell in love with someone they both knew - it was horrible. She (my mother) felt betrayed and the whole thing blew up... I already had depression at this point but of course there was no place for my feelings in that situation. Now, five years later, I'm over my depression and eating disorder, married and have a daughter of my own. No way this ideology is going to touch her, no way that I'm going to tell her I have two dads.. hell no. We are still arguing about this, I will never give in to this family destroying ideology. Now I can neither talk about her as my mother, nor as my father... I wonder, if being a woman and all womanly things are so bad, why did she give birth thrice? My father is really hypocritical too, he follows her every word.. like literally saying: "he used his uterus to give birth to you". Wtf?!

My brother did this 18 years ago. He abandoned his wife and 2y old child. His argument, even then, matched Chris'. "My child would WANT me to be happy; I am doing this for them!!!". Nope, your child wants a Daddy. His wife was devastated, never really recovered and floated through various religions looking for meaning and hope. Never remarried and she wanted so badly to have a family. No one wanted to date her (once they found out) and take on the social stigma that she was stuck with, since she shared a child with him and could not escape his orbit. The child has since been swallowed by this gender ideology and also transitioned, had surgery, and is estranged from Mom. His actions led to the complete destruction of a family. It divided the extended family. We can't have family reunions anymore. I am no contact to avoid the contagion to my young, impressionable kids. This ideology is a disease that destroys families and relationships all to useless sacrifice for a false idol of selfishness and "happiness". I hate it.

[@Mac_Omegaly]

My dad did this to my mom 21 years ago. He was kind enough to attempt to hide it from me and my younger brother, but my older Sister and oldest brother found out before the separation, when he abandoned the family and left. 14 months later on a visit to his apartment I found women's clothes in the balcony closet and was told the truth about why my father abandoned his family. Six weeks later on our next visitation (since I and my younger brother were still minors) his roommate dressed as a woman showed up. My little brother declared loudly "you are having an affair!". (Which was the only funny thing about this situation.) That Roommate broke their word by showing up, and my dad ended up kicking them out of the apartment so visitation could continue. At this point I didn't want to be there, but I had to protect my younger brother. (It wasn't court ordered visitation, so I had the option not to go, but my younger brother wanted so badly to try and fix dad, despite not knowing the true cause, that he always wanted to visit if he could.) In the end my dad took a credit card out in my mom's name and that was the final straw and my mom filed for divorce, in the process to change our last names. 2 years of dealing with this stupid situation my dad became an ex-trans "because of Jesus" and married my step mom. But the phycological strain over this time caused me to flunk out of highschool, and struggle with serious depression and trouble dating. (It didn't help that I also had a brain tumor try to kill me at this point too.) For the summer of radiation therapy my dad back as a man made an effort to spend time with me at the hope lodge, but he only said sorry once, but didn't specify what he was sorry for. Now my dad is suffering from serious health problems because of those two years wrecking his body with the wrong hormones, he's probably going to die in a year or two, if not sooner. To this day he won't acknowledge or accept the damage he did to his children and he is still angry and upset that my mom divorced him. I don't have access to his side of the family because they took his side on the situation.* (Well my grandpa, his dad, before he died told my mom he didn't blame her and wrote our birthday check to us kids in our new names. But my currently only living grandparent his mom refuses to acknowledge the new name since she doesn't want to have the family name die because of what happened. She is intolerable if I bring up anything about my name or my mom.) Anyway while my situation was much better then the one you know about, there was still massive emotional and psychological damage that was done. My older brother never was able to date again because he worked hard to support the rest of family until he suffered a massive breakdown. (He took care of me for 13 years) My sister had the opposite problem and dated abusive guys nonstop until she married one, and is dealing with him taking custody of her two girls away because she is too transphobic. I dated only one woman who rejected me because I was going to end up a freak like my dad. And I have struggled to deal with that, despite knowing I am like the opposite of my dad in every way. Thankfully my little brother got married and has a mostly normal life. But he also cut off my mom and my sister because my brother still talks to my dad. I have a middle ground relationship with my little brother, but it's been a problem trying to visit him and his family. My mom got destroyed over the last 20 years getting her alimony reduced little by little from $3900 to the current $500 /month despite never getting remarried or doing anything else wrong. (Except for not hiring a big enough snake to fight my dad's snake of a lawyer.)

@@JenWulf thank you. It's hard to talk about this subject, and I originally wanted to focus on the things that were similar to the situation you were talking about. The words of my last ex girlfriend really hurt me, because I have a medical issue that naturally destroyed my pituitary, and it no longer produces any hormones, and requires me to take medicine daily. She was wrong to try to rush into having sex with me after only three months, and she was wrong to say such things to me because i refused. But it took a long time for me to realize those facts. As I was right not to have sex with her since she clearly wasn't for me, and if things did continue a worse breakup was looming in the future. Even knowing those things I still struggle even to think about trying to date again. My loneliness is my main motivation and the pool of available "kind" women who would be willing to accept damaged goods like myself is incredibly small to impossible. Even though these things are not entirely true, I put up these walls to prevent myself from getting hurt. (And this is not all my Dad's fault, but the effects of his choices are a big part of this.) Anyway I am planning on trying to go to a local 30's singles event this summer. I don't want to rush things but I feel like time is running out to try to start a family.

I'm a gay trans widow from a 10 year relationship. Problems started showing up around the 7th year with him hanging out with super progressive "friends" and wanting to go on vacation trips without me (which I later found out included a lot of risky sex and drugs). He shaved his beard, then later everything else except his head and started seeing a therapist (later found out it was a gender therapist) and got into cross dressing. He also created an alternate online identity around this time. I broke up with him because of the risky sex, which admittedly I only found out about since I cracked his phone so some secrets had to come out. I spent 3 years feeling like a stranger in my own house and completely unable to get him to explain to me what was going on. I found it all out nearly 2 years later that he decided to change his name, had been on hormone therapy for some time and was looking forward to surgery, and had disowned his family and many of his friends. He also reported having multiple personalities, spending most of his time crying uncontrollably but self-reportedly "happy". I was so traumatized I have since cut all contact and most contact of contact out of my life. I feel so entirely betrayed and hateful even 6 years later I surprise myself, not least of all spending much of my free time in the past 4 years reading up on all of this and seeing how completely predatory and bogus it all is.

As the adult daughter of a trans parent, I’d like to thank you for making this video. Whilst the parent who decides to transition has a entire community of support to validate and celebrate their “journey,” the spouse and children have little to no resources to help them navigate this new emotional landscape. Many therapists are committed to prioritizing gender affirmation for the trans parent and the feelings of the wife and children are disregarded. The trans community is openly hostile. Nothing less than enthusiastic support for the trans spouse/parent is tolerated. If the wife opts to leave the marriage citing their spouse’s transition as the reason, she is labelled “transphobic.” And even though trans women consider their former male identities as “dead” and take umbrage to anyone calling them by their “dead name”, they object to their former wives calling themselves “trans widows.” Apparently only trans people are allowed to give themselves (and everyone else) labels. It isn’t all sunshine, rainbows, and sparkly unicorns when a spouse/parent decides to transition, so thank you for highlighting the situation of the wives and children who have been silenced. It’s like living in the world of Invasion of the Body Snatchers and it helps to know that sane and reasonable people are still out there.

[@mnmnmnmnmnmnm]

I’m also an adult daughter of a trans parent and wanted to thank you for leaving your comment. Never in my life have I had the freedom to truly express the grief or work through the long term damage this transition has had on our family, friendships, the childhood development of 3 kids or any of our self worth, in general. I always considered myself a “daddy’s girl” when I was little, until things changed so vastly that it just didn’t feel right anymore. I was never allowed to mourn that loss. The transition started nearly 30 years ago. I spent many years angry. Still to this day, there’s an urgency to the trans parent needing inclusion in everything. It’s always felt like “me, me, me”, yet I can’t even make it through an afternoon with said parent without being tuned out in a conversation. We got the version where there’s “co-parenting”, but it’s really more like low effort straddling of “I’m being a good parent” and “I’m being my authentic self”. I guess the parent believes it, *gold star* but neither truly happened imo and mom was never free to try to move on, either. It’s difficult, but we can’t talk about it. We never really had the option of walking away, just the gaslight to stay and be supportive because “why would anything else change”? 🙃 The sacrifices and shame the rest of us endured, growing up in this mess (to try to explain something we don’t even truly understand to those around us) to allow our PARENT of all things (ex-husband, in mom’s case… but co-parenting) some kind of “normalcy” in this is 100% absurd. Just one man’s decision, right? To those that say it’s easy to walk away, try being in the middle of a situation like this. Then, consider what it would be like for the person you looked up to most in the world to pull this crap, and you’ve never wanted anything more than to be the apple of their eye. Devastating.

I remember noticing the beginnings of this phenomena probably a decade ago now. A man had made a couple of KZbin video telling his story. How he'd always thought both women and men were beautiful, but didn't realize he was really gay till he got drunk and fooled around with some guy at a party. So he left his wife and started dating men. He and his wife also had an elementary school aged daughter. What struck me about the story wasn't that he was an awful man who ruined his marriage and greatly damaged the lives of his wife and kid for his own selfishness. But that the internet was CELEBRATING him for it. I just couldn't fathom how people thought that him "discovering his true self and true sexuality" made abandoning his vows and his family not only permissible but a good thing. In hindsight, I should have seen the writing on the wall then and realized what our culture was in the process of turning into. Though nowadays it's transgenderism that turns your sins into virtues, and not simply "coming out".

If a woman’s husband comes out as gay, it’s game over. But if a woman’s husband comes out as trans, she’s trapped by marital obligation to stick by her spouse because she could be painted as transphobic if she leaves? How does this make sense? There is definitely a double standard here.

I've not seen a comment saying Chris is anything but bad for transitioning

[@Ellie-coco]

Trans siblings/families have very few, if any, resources to cope with the change. My brother announced he wanted to be a woman suddenly in 2019 and I felt such trauma and grief from it that it made me sick for weeks. I confided these feelings in my best friend, who then shamed be for being a bigot and told me I wasn’t “losing a brother, but gaining a sister” and I was furious. It was as if my brother had died, and eventually he did, but the lack of support and feelings I was dealing with was impossible to cope with. It is traumatizing. Edit: Since a lot of commenters are just proving me right about the fact it's stigmatized to say you don't know how to deal with that change, I'm going to provide some additional context. 1. My brother's first mission upon coming out was to utterly destroy all tangible evidence of his male self. This included precious family photos that were of both of us, that I cherished and did not want destroyed. I offered to just take them away, but that "wasn't good enough" and those photos were destroyed behind my back. Arguing the point of them being good memories we shared meant absolutely nothing to him -- he outright said so. I was floored. He wanted the original photos all shredded, screamed when I suggested making copies instead, and he still insisted he get his way or else I wasn't being supportive. Countless memories from my childhood are now lost forever. They were just as much mine, and I was willing to do my part to keep them "out of sight" so they would not be harmed or remind him of what it was that was paining him. But my pain didn't matter at all here, and people outright supported the manipulation and not me. 2. I was supportive to his face. He never knew I had any doubts or concerns, I did exactly what people are expected to do performatively. It was just devastating to see the toll it took on him to pursue transition, the hormones made him immediately ill. He would also go on long tangents to me about how beautiful he wanted to be, and became incredibly vain. It became clear to me at that point he had a ridiculously hungry ego, and the way he would go on about how much easier he perceived women's lives to be, especially pretty women, made me sick. I was sad for him because I had seen his life prior, but didn't think it was a valid reason to become that shallow, critical, and demanding. Many times he would even say "we" when making criticisms of "our" inherited looks not being good enough, even just berating me separately a few times. 3. The dynamic between the two of us changed seemingly overnight. A brother and sister seldom compete the way two sisters do. Who is the prettier sister? Who is the smarter sister? Who is the richer sister? I had never experienced that before, and that juvenile sort of game was something sisters who grew up that way would likely outgrow for the most part. We were already adults, so I felt like it was ridiculous. I just tried to ignore it until it became inappropriate. He would comment on the size of my breasts, hips, and other body parts that you otherwise wouldn't want your sibling (that you've known your whole life as a *brother*) to be looking at. I was more than uncomfortable. 4. Family damage. I had to clean up the "mess", essentially, and facilitate communication between my adult brother and parents for a long time. They offered to pay for counseling, spent countless hours doing research so they could understand, but because my brother had held onto the impression they wouldn't have been supportive for so long he was unwilling to work with them. We could no longer have family holidays, as my brother refused to show up or even be in the same room as my father. They did have a strained relationship, but my brother was not willing to receive apologies or therapeutic assistance at any point, only the money they offered. I finally broke down and told my parents and brother both that this had to stop because I was tired of being the middleman and therapist to all of them, and that they all needed to grow the F up and work it out because I was done. There are no guidelines for proper behavior for either side, or really anyone in the family here. And I do not think that it was fair to put the majority of the burden on me, especially if we were both adults. (He was actually older than me, by the way.) I hope that people will eventually understand that this level of change is far more than just surface level and is not isolated to the trans person themselves only. It's clearly mental illness. Selfish, centered in the ego, and I refuse to believe anything else. Obviously not everyone that is trans will act this selfishly, but using that identity as a shield from consequence is something far more common. It was not my job to steer him in the direction of appropriate behavior. There were no resources to help me navigate going through this. I'm just recounting an experience. I did love him, and tried to be compassionate, but dealing with someone in that state of mind is difficult and saying that does not make someone evil.

The father is gone, replaced by a narcissistic personality that is competing with their spouse for the title of "most feminine". The spouse has been berated, minimized, and financially neglected as the sperm donor of her two young children (also the primary financial earner) used the bulk of the incoming money to pay for his own needs.

Benjamin Boyce has done some great interviews with "trans widows" (i.e. women who married heterosexual men who later came out as trans). A common thread is that the husband introduces the idea of cross dressing into the bedroom first, and often encourages the wife to play along with it. Pornography also plays a major role. After doing that for awhile, the husband pushes the boundaries further by bringing his fetish out into the public sphere. In many of these stories, the husband seems to have a case of autogynophylia. After awhile, it becomes no longer satisfying to confine the act to the private bedroom, he has to involve the rest of the world in order to get some sort of satisfaction from it.

He never cared for our child before I escaped, and I do mean escape. She was a year old when we left. He quickly got the courts involved. A week before our first hearing he suddenly stated that he was transitioning to female. Now, before I got pregnant he did preform in drag. I was alright with it. But he didn't do it because he wanted to be female, he wanted to make fun of women. Particularly woman who are open about sexual topics and are more free with whom they share that part of their life with. I didn't figure this out until later... Then again, there's a lot I didn't figure out until later... This man is very sexist. While I was pregnant his favorite thing to do, specially in front of others, was to grab my belly firmly and say, "you don't thank the oven you thank the chef." He told so many bad jokes about domestic violence and women with disabilities. I had a complicated and dangerous pregnancy and C-section. I went home from the hospital early against medical advice because he threatened to take our child home without me and I was breast feeding. There's more... So much more, if you know... You know, and I'm sorry you went through it too. After the hearing he demanded that our child call him by female pronouns. He didn't want just one for example, "Mama," he wanted them all. He even corrected her later during a video chat and said that he was Mommy when our daughter was talking about me. When this all first started our child had started calling him, "da da," as most one year olds do. She ended up with a severe speech delay and I spent the next year with a group of specialist while he combated our efforts at every turn. We weren't correcting any pronouns, we just didn't use them at all. I started referring to him as her, "other parent." I'd go on and explain how I, and a handful of others, believe that he is attempting to replace me as her mother but it would be a rather long reply. Suffice to say, it's an ongoing battle and there is very little help from professionals or my peers. I'm either a transphobe or a snowflake... It's not that I disagree with someone being transgender. I disagree with people who fake it, don't have gender dysphoria, and who push it onto children. I don't really call myself a transwidow. Why? I call myself a survivor because of the sheer amount and intensity of the abuse I endured at the hands of a man who claims he's female for clout, attention, and confusion.

It would depend on the case. There are people who genuinely feel that they in the wrong body. We've always known that. But I'd argue that in 9 out of 10 (or even 99 out of 100) cases the root of the issue lies elsewhere. Whether it's attention seeking, the desire to belong and have purpose, the social advancement or just sheer mental illness, is a question that needs to be investigated. One thing should be clear: It's not normal, in the same way as it wouldn't be normal, if the sky turned green all of a sudden. So if this friend is able to convince me, that his desire to become the opposite gender (and it would definitely take some convincing) I'd certainly not abandon him. If he'd be one of the above-mentioned, I'd probably start questioning my friendship with him. Still, he might be in need of a friend to help him get back to his normal self.

How would you say this compares to gay men who stay in a relationship for 10+ years before leaving their wife to be with another man? I've always thought about this subject from the lens that the issue is from entering a relationship on a lie. (both in regards to trans women as well as gay men coming out part way into a committed relationship) If you've been married for 10+ years while in the closet, I view the problem more about entering the relationship dishonestly in the first place compared to the departure. If everyone in a relationship knew all of the information from the start, then these issues would never come up in the first place.

I called him by the feminized version of his name at home as he requested. I told him he looked cute in his ill-fitting panties cause it made him happy.

@@Mayucraft16YT I'm fairly certain I understand where the breakdown is here, so I'll try to explain. _Beliefs_ and _bias,_ while typically aligned and working in concert to create the all-too-common feedback loop of confirmation bias, are actually independent concepts. _Bias_ affects a person's interpretation of events by skewing their view of reality one way or the other away from a point of objectivity. Bias is bad because the person affected begins from an unfair perspective and thus develops beliefs that don't align with reality. _Beliefs_ are essentially our fundamental understanding of the world based on the aggregation of everything we have experienced throughout life. It is natural for people to interpret new events/information through a filter of past experience, so unless consciously avoided, a person's beliefs will cause them to also have bias. Though incredibly rare, a person can objectively interpret reality and consider all relevant perspectives while still holding strong beliefs.

Let’s just say that relationships ended horribly after 11 months of mental abuse & dragging me through the mud. Not only did he treat me like shit & cheat on me, but out of all my breakups that guy did it in the most heart breaking soul crushing way. I also just want to add, his father was still in the home. His parents also got along & never fight, however they didn’t sleep in the same room and his dad was a man of few words. But they were overall very nice & caring. My guess is that he was babied by them. I didn’t realize till after we broke up also that this guy had some serious mental issue even pushed me back into anorexia & made me hate my body again. So yeah. 7 years later I chose a real man with a good family, he treats me like a treasure & now he is my husband.

She tried to make him out to be the bad guy because he didn't want to be married to a man. She/He/It/They now has a new family and a new baby. My nephew does have visitation with his "other" parent but lives with my brother. The first time I heard him refer to her as "daddy" I nearly went nuclear (not in front of the kid of course).

Did she have the baby?

[@yavinklein-katz7719]

This happens to men as well… my ex-wife wanted a divorce because she claimed she was not attracted to me and she wanted to explore a life with women. Lucky, we didn’t have children together, otherwise it’d be much worse. But I was left devastated as well, I had put my heart and soul into my marriage, I had so many dreams of a life together including children! Now I have serious trust issues for obvious reasons. Never know if your life partner will become a different person all of a sudden.

There are so many things I want to say after watching this video! I have an ex who wanted to become a woman and hoped we would stay together during and after the transition. He said he would stay the same and that it wouldn't change a thing to our relationship.... I am sorry, but a love relationship is also a matter of attraction and intimacy, I can't change what I get excited by. I had to cut ties with a friend who plainly said that the reason I didn't take it well was because I was insecure about my own sexuality. The support from our common friends went to him, and the people reaching out to me wanted to make me understand how HE felt, but never tried to understand the grief I had to go through, the dreams and memories all became gray and tainted. It was no normal break-up and he didn't pass away, so no one could relate. It was a very weird and hard grief. He had it rough certainly, but I was also impacted by it. No one talks about us. Because nowadays, all we are allowed to do is shut up and stand by them...

A very very good friend got his girlfriend of two months pregnant and they got married. He was her first boyfriend as she had only been with women before. Last I talked to him they were happy and he was over the moon being a father. Then their daughter was diagnosed as autistic at 3, and the wife decided she wanted out of the marriage because she was only attracted to women. She said the only way she would keep him is if he was trans. He transitioned to keep his family together. I feel like I’ve lost my friend, his dad lost his wife to cancer and son to transition and no longer gets to see his granddaughter because he dared to question his sons choice to transition instead of leaving the crazy woman.

[@KP71810]

He transitioned because his wife wanted him to?! Omg, what a nightmare of a situation.

[@jt9411]

How tragic. I'm sure that'll work out well long term. What if she changes her mind and wants a biological woman?

[@Madonnalitta1]

That's insane, poor bloke should have run a mile.

[@MrSmith-ve6yo]

Holy moly...

[@CordeliaWagner]

That's why people shouldn't have sex. Most pregnancies are unwanted and nowadays breeding a healthy child is pretty rare.

[@jemimahkendall6579]

I've noticed the only time people expect you to work it out is when your partner is trans, any other type of difficulty within a relationship and these same people will tell you to get a divorce

[@RespectMyAuthoritaah]

No, they tell the woman to get a divorce. They tell the man to just "man up" and deal with it.

[@RespectMyAuthoritaah]

@@codechartreuse Try telling that to modern Western women. LOL

[@AveDominusNoctis]

"My partner says attraction is about the person; that you love a person." You do love a person. But love and attraction are not the same thing, and they are not inherently connected. I love many people that I feel no attraction towards, like friends and family. I feel attraction towards many people that I do not love, like instagram models. When you're married or in a committed relationship with someone, you typically feel both love and attraction towards them, usually at the same time. But its very possible for one of them to fade or disappear entirely without affecting the other one.

[@HerWanderlust]

I can love someone and not be attracted to them once they complete devolve into a mentally ill fantasy
