I lost a friend today because of the fact that I'm trans. He grew up in a very different part of the world, and I don't blame him for the way he was raised. I just wish people weren't so easy to throw others away for something they can't help.
I do feel as though I owe everyone I've met in the past few weeks an apology for deceiving them, though. It was only one guy from a rural area, but it's still hurtful and I feel very discouraged. I know I'll never be accepted in the country that my family is from. I just want to crawl under a rock.
I don't know why I'm so hurt by this. I was expecting it this whole time. That's why I never told anyone...
I know not everyone will accept me, but it hurts more than I expected it to.
