Oh god where do I start. Me (Rachel) am dating my life-long friend Parker. Well, let's start from the beginning. I met him about 4-5 years ago. I've been thinking about transitioning since about seventh grade. That was six years ago. I met Parker the year after (previously known as Emilie). Me and him have been best friends since we met. He was the first person I came out to two years ago. I only later found out he wanted to do the same. So here we are, almost a year together, but still can't transition. Parker was originally unable to because he didn't feel it was right, me on the other hand, I'm stuck with an unsupportive family and a few friends. Even with my friends I can't transition because there's too much judging where I live so I know I'd be picked on. I hear people insulting people like us all the time so I'm forced to leave school before the day's even half over. At least it's my last year there. Me and Parker are on either side of a Canada. He's on the East coast and I'm in Alberta. Our plan is to get a place within the next few months on the East coast and me move there over the summer so he can finish College. Then we still have to wait another two to three years until we can move back to Alberta because medicare doesn't cover any of our transitions and we just don't have eighty-thousand dollars to cover both of our changes, at least Alberta cuts down that price by a landslide. My question is does anyone have any other solutions? The waiting never seems to end and it's bothering both of us to no end
why can't people just help us transition easier...
