Title: Guilt
Post by: echo_artist on July 01, 2014, 05:17:53 PM
After being with my partner for pride and having a blast.....
some words were spoken and exchanged....and there were words
spoken that they would consider transitioning.
I got a burst of joy and a lump in my throat at the same time.
I feel like I influence those feelings.
Is it possible to do that, to switch someone trans?

They might have been trans for a while now and this is the first time they have decided to entrust that information to another person.

Truche, I just feel weird because it was just so sudden with the news. Is this how it feels when people come out? Lol

It usually comes as a big shock to most people, especially when they don't see the signs leading up to this point. Some people have hidden their feelings so well and tried to fit in that they realized that they can't keep lying to themselves and, before making any abrupt changes, they confide to a closest friend or significant other. But most people you tell can see the signs in retrospect and later think to themselves that they should have seen this coming.

have been some truth to it.... o_o

Relax sweetie, you can't influence someone to be trans. They either are or aren't and I think this person just finally relaxed and got some courage from you, nothing else. :)

Thanks Jessica, I guess because I was always paranoid about myself, I felt
like my sexuality and gender was so free, it was like a cold to everyone, just very contagious.
But see them look so much happier admit that, freaked me out. It was like I gave them my problems....
Now talking to them I feel a little bit better than before.
