Valentine



I used to hate Valentine's Day.  It seemed like an excuse for people in relationships to flaunt them to raise themselves over the people who weren't.  And at the time, be a transwoman, there did not seem to be any relationship in my future, near or far.

I was married to a woman for nearly 25 years when I came out.  Beginning transition completely destroyed that relationship.
