You all know me, that stupid woman who thinks she can carry the world.
She can.
I received a nasty insult from my family tonight. Goddess it hurt.
I'm so well accepted, in life I'm happy, accepted and loved.
Except for family.
My wife's family.
My wife loves and accepts me and I adore her.
So I felt pain, it cut me to my remains of my soul.
I was in tears, F first break down in years.
Getting stronger by the second, overcoming it, deal with it.
Be strong. I know people love me, I love me.
I will not give in to hate.
I will not give in.
I am stronger than anyone can imagine.
I am Cindy
Hear me ROAR
<rant that I needed>
Love you Cindy! Hugs! :D
Hugs and hope you get better soon.
Remember there are many good people out there. Sometimes it seems some critics come within family...
You might look up a brochure for the british NHS called "doh-transgender-experiences.pdf" .
It states that being trans has some biological connections, which is imo socially better acceptable, and it might help with self acceptance.
So its not a light hearted decision... or a whim... and its nobodys fault, neither yours nor your parents upbringing...
Well its up to you what you say... some thoughts of it just might help...
And you might not take it personal, not investing too much emotions... I'd mentally send them love and go my way...
*hugs*
Good on you Cindy. Family always seem to know how to hurt you best, but don't let them clip your wings for a single moment.
Hang in there, Cindy.
Who are your wife's family to decide whether or not to accept you? Sorry, but they don't get a vote on who you are.
Hugs.
Cindy I hope to grow as strong as you. Don't let family get you down.
Cindy, your courage and strength are inspiring. Hugs.

Families..........yeah.
All power and strength to you Cindy!
Take care of yourself and get a good night's sleep.
Sending positive vibes down to SA.............(!)
sorry, It would be really nice if people wouldn't do things to cause hurt.
Cindy, you are really an inspiration in so many ways. Don't let such things affect you.
You mentioned that your wife loves and accepts you, and I remember you saying in some other thread that your mother-in-law happily introduced you as her daughter-in-law.
If that's really the case, that's more than enough. Why should anyone else saying anything matter at all?
*hugs*
Hi Cindy,
It always amazes me how hurtful some people can be. I usually am a little stunned when someone has the gall to make a snide remark to me. I usually think that such comments reflect on the person making them, not on the recipient. They're the ones with the problems.
Hope you're feeling better,
Paige :)
