as a trans person, i understand them wanting to tread lightly on trans issues bc they aren’t trans, however nah the trans husband is a pos he 100% took advantage of his husband and the fact that as soon as he was healed he left? it is heartbreaking

Yeah, like even if his feelings did change like... absolutely pay back your husband the money he spent on your surgery. Repay his generosity properly. Being a man doesn't mean you get to be a dick.

Yeah I got so pissed. I'm a trans woman with a trans man partner and the whole thing about "I want the gay man experience" he's been on T for several years at this point and even just one or two years T has WAY quicker and way more noticeable affects than estrogen so he had been living outwardly as a man (most likely, I'm making some assumptions) for a while now like he knows what being a gay man is like you just used your partner of 16 years

Making lots of assumptions on hypotheticals here, as we all are but: Yep. Like, what they're saying in sympathy is very real. But feeling scared and like shit for wanting to separate is no damn excuse to just drop the damn ball like that. SIXTEEN YEARS, of what seems like unconditional love. He likely wanted all reminders of his dead self to disappear. Even if that's needed is IS selfish. Not saying a single thing until RIGHT AT THE END is what really makes it even WORSE. I don't care how kindly you say it, or however grateful you are. Fuck you for that. 16 years of support is only gonna make your kind words feel like fuck all. The fact the guy used however much money from his mom's death for this, and is even blaming himself???? ugh, makes me ill. You can still feel like shit, want your life to change. It's traumatic, it's scary. But you just don't do shit like that. If he ever tries to come back to rekindle... I hope the dude says no. like jesus. If you ditched out of fear and not once tried to communicate that with a partner of 16 years... I got nothing for ya.

it really could be that he didn’t realize that till that point. he should have offered to repay though. i realized a lot of stuff after i was on testosterone and i expect the same when i go through with surgeries. i just wouldn’t let somebody pay for something completely from the jump, i’d feel weird about that coming back four months later, top surgery did drastically change my mental state. i would have left a romantic relationship if i had been in one pre surgery. i just know that i mentally feel so different, that im probably not compatible with the same people. my taste in people has changed again (it changed on hormones, so it just continued to shift) it’s life that relationships don’t work out, especially with huge life changes like major surgeries. he should have gone about ending the relationship in a much better way, regardless.

@gooodmorning4526 8 ай бұрын

@@reckless_herblike someone said though, there are three stages of transition and he's been transitioning for 8 years. It's possible that he didn't realise until it was complete, but the fact that he wants to "the single gay man experience" likely was something he considered long before then. Even if he did realise after the surgery, he wouldn't have considered it long before he asked for divorce. Like wouldn't you ask for separation first? You'd have to be pretty sure, and I think that comes with a lot of time and consideration, and he could have brought it up earlier than he did.

@Crusty_peanut 9 ай бұрын

I’m a trans spouse and I… honest to god hated their take on the trans husband story. It’s very clear to me that he used his spouse’a money(that he received because his mother DIED OF LUNG CANCER BTW!!!) in order to complete his transition, stayed just long enough to use his husband as his bedside care provider(as the healing process involves being bedridden), and then i bet my top dollar his scars didn’t even finish healing by the time he filed for divorce. That was premeditated and malicious, at best.

the thing about this is that it was their shared money, it's not like op was some rich tycoon; they were already living comfortably with enough money and you're assuming that right at the point he got surgery he was like "now i can finally divorce!" when he clearly would have had enough money to do it on his own. there is not enough information for people to assume that he had any malicious intent.

@@soup5634 it took me a long time to realize that people measure each other socially by their romantic relationships. Same as they do with finances and careers. There’s this set path of “normal” that people use as a guideline to determine if other people are doing well. If you meet a 20-year-old in college, you think, “That tracks.” If you meet a 20-year-old not in school and with no job, you think, “Ugh. Not doing well… possibly trouble.” If you meet a 20-year-old with his own company, you think, “Wow! Successful! Safe! Worth knowing.” They do the same with relationships. I think it’s another example of evolution being too slow for how fast human society has progressed. It used to be very important to spot differences in other humans because it could signify danger, disease, enemies, etc. But it’s got nothing to do with modern society. Knowing whether your friend or coworker dates, sleeps around, gets married, or does none of these things has no practical purpose at all. Tldr: People are just inherently nosey. 😂

I think the problem with the surgery story is that it happened so soon after the surgery.

This seems really cold-hearted to me.

@joylox Жыл бұрын

That's my take too. If I were in that situation, as either side, I'd want to talk to a therapist first, or perhaps try a semi-open relationship where flirting is okay, or something, before breaking it off entirely.

I genuinely believe there has to be a side of the story not being told, especially considering the circumstances of, if op is abusing them, it would make sense that that would be the breaikng point or the moment of realisation as to how bad it really is, because during recovery of surgery is where they need to be taken care of the most, it is their most vulnerable positions, abusive people almost always take advantage of these situations. And why do they seem almost more concerned about telling people on reddit how theyve done everything right and dont know what theyve done wrong, rather than just go to their partner and listen, it seems so goddamn odd. Thats a 16 year marriage, if I saw someone do that, id immediately try to seek support and therapy for them, because holy shit, having that 180 like that after a major surgery, op has to be goddamn lying because in situations like that thats when people go missing, people end their own lives, people who "was fine" was not fine at all. Like psychosis, anything could be possible, no one just does that, they've known this person for 16+ goddamn years and they are that chill about that part- Also we are only getting one side of the story.

It is his boyfriend, and if something she's doing to his partner is making him feel upset/he asks her to stop, she should. She should respect his/their boundaries - if one of them asks her to stop, she should stop. Idk if I would call her an asshole, I feel like to deserve that she should be doing it 100% on purpose and we simply can't know that, but she for sure is being an ass about the situation.

I had a friend tell me I couldn't be bi because I had never kissed a girl. She told me this in our early teens. I brought it up to her a few years ago. She couldn't remember ever having said it, but instead of accusing me of making her sound homophobic, she actually apologized and said something along the lines of "Oh my god, I was such an asshole, I'm sorry!" She was also genuily upset she couldn't remember it, because she didn't feel like it was fair to me that I was the only one of us who got to remember that awful comment

@spencerlively3049 Жыл бұрын

honestly it seems that the vast majority (like 95%) of incidences like that, the people who say things like that won't remember having said it because to them it was just an off-hand remark without much thought or intention whereas for the people they offended/hurt, it leaves much more of a memorable emotional impact. It's REALLY frustrating because if you don't have trust in that relationship it can easily feel like/or mimic actual gaslighting.

5:22 Ok, with the first story, I do think she's the asshole. Even if the bf hasn't said anything about it, and even if she knows she doesn't have a chance with him, to flirt with her brother's bf IN FRONT OF HIM is a very asshole move. If it was a man flirting with his sister's gf, it would easily be seen as the harassment that it is. It just pisses me off that all three of them say the OP isn't the asshole when she's clearly doing some shithead, asshole behavior. She even knows it's not gonna go anywhere, so why bother? That's just a waste of energy and effort at that point. I really want to know what the bf thinks about her "jokes".

Same here. I live in a university town. We had two female teachers who were living together back in the 90s. One of them was one of our high school PE teachers, while the other was a history teacher in university. They pretended they were just old maid friends but literally EVERYONE knew they were in a relationship since I think the 80s or the 70s. And no one cared. It was an open secret. They're retired now and still together, but everyone still pretends to believe they're just friends because they've never openly talked about it, so it would be awkward. 😅 They're both very well-respected, since pretty much every kid in town was a student of one or the other.

Ab the asexual story: I've known I was ace since I was 13, and honestly it's almost been ten years and I still horrifically struggle with the idea of sex in a relationship because I'm so terrified of not being "normal". If you aren't actively having sex there is this fantasy you live in that "oh but the next time surely will be good because I'll be fixed by then" and it really really sticks with you. I was in love with someone for a longggg time, and they told me explicitly that the only reason they wouldn't be with me was because I was ace. That really fucks you up, and makes you constantly daydream about being able to sexually fulfil your partner and yourself because that's what we are "supposed' to do as humans. I do think OP should be honest but it isn't manipulation for any purposeful reason. He's just scared and confused and desperately trying to "fix" himself and the situation without involving his partner since it feels like such a personal problem. Btw if you are ace or ace questioning, you aren't broken bestie. It's a really hard feeling to fight, but the world of "traditional" relationships just weren't designed for us. That doesn't make you wrong, it just means you have to navigate more than others.

Idk. I think Shayne's take was spot-on. I think the person needed to step away for a bit to live his new life and see if he still loved his partner, or if he was just comfortable with someone who felt safe. I'm not trans and haven't been in that specific situation, but I can see how a huge change in life can make you re-examine whether you really love the person you're with or are just staying out of comfort/security. If anything, it feels almost kinder to have it all laid out on the table instead of being strung along, hoping the relationship can weather the new chapter - which will probably not be the case. I mean, great if it does, but how much more hurtful if it didn't after a year or more of being in relationship stasis, you know?

I'm pan. And I understand from experience that it is frustrating to feel like you have to defend/prove your sexuality. But, the thing is..... you really don't have anything to prove. You are who you are, and you like who you like. Just like everyone else. The gaytekeeping is really only some understandable bitterness that we have an option of easy-mode that others don't have. The dating pool and success rates for lesbian relationships are abhorrent in comparison to hetero relationships. The domestic abuse statistics for lesbian relationships are so high that it's genuinely scary... even in comparison to how bad straight relationships can get. There's privilege in being able to feel at home within a social majority. There's privilege in options. They feel some type of way about that privilege which they will never experience. AND having to give us queer credit that they don't think we have comparatively earned. Yes, we have some shared experience with other LGBT+ people. That can and should unite us. But we can't forget that nobody is a monolith for all people with some shared experience. We're not the same. We're individuals. We're not always going to see eye to eye with everyone. And that's ok.
