Hi again to everyone on Susans,
Today a number of issues came to a head. Issues that are a fallout from my gender expression.
I was asked to leave today by my wife. I have kept none of my trans issue a secret from her and this has resulted in a final confrontation that means if I spend money on transition & dress as a woman I must leave.
I have had a strict limited budget for clothes, cosmetics, electrolysis, but the issue is bigger than just money.
Tonight is my first night away from home. I knew this would probably happen in the end. I cant apologize and stop acting as a girl, - if I do I will probably die.
I have people I can call if I fall into a hole. I must keep my head up for the sake of my sons.
This is the real cost of transition and it really does hurt. I would give transition away if I could but I can't. I was hoping for family life AND be able to transition but it is not to be.
Yours truly, Kirsten.
Kirsten, I feel with you, I know how it hurts. I was in a similar situation many years ago! Luckily, our son was already an adult, and he accepted me. Sometimes, the cost of transition is very high, but what else can one do? Now, many years later, my ex and I are pretty good girlfriends, but that took a while. It was hard for her to get over it that I was not the man anymore she was so deeply in love with and who she married!
I am now a pretty happy woman, because time heals all wounds!
I wish you the best, and hope you can stay strong, and continue to live the life that seems to be charted out for you!
Many hugs and lots of love
Linde
