So this morning, I had a very long talk with my wife and parents. We sat around the table for over 3 hours and talked about everything; what I want, what I see in my future, everything. I fully opened up to them about wanting to become a woman and going through the process of becoming one.
Over the last week, my parents have had this idea in their minds that once I finished school, I would get back together with my wife. Though my wife didn't know the ful extent of what exactly I wanted, she knew we probably wouldn't get back together. That was why this whole talk took place. I explained that I truly wanted to be a woman and that my wife has already expressed that she didn't want to be married to a woman...can't fault her for that...and explained that one we separate, that's pretty much it. The talk did not go well. Lots of tears from everyone since all three of them didn't know the ful extent of what I was wanting. My wife did the best at accepting it. She explained that though she could not follow me in the journey that I was on, she respected my decision to follow the path I feel is right. No, she is not ok with it, no, she does not want it to happen. But she knows that it is entirely my choice and I have to do what I feel is right. Both my parents just cried a lot. They didn't have much to say. Hours later, I got a text from my dad saying that he/they will always love me no matter what. It means a lot to me for sure. I know and understand that it has to be excruciatingly hard for them to see their only boy want to be one of the sisters. I have three. It's very hard to know that they are hurting and there is literally nothing I can do to make it better. I think they are somewhat mourning the loss of a son. It breaks my heart to see them go through all this and know that there is very little I can do to make it better. Especially since it is my fault all this is happening. Kind of makes me want to curl up somewhere dark and just cry and hide.
These kinds of things hurt my heart. I wish there was another way. My wife well be fine, but my kids will be hurt and my parents well be hurt.
Sometimes I just wish I could disappear. (Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything drastic) I just wish this could all be over and I could just have a do over and be a GG. Sadly, I'm stuck with this one life and don't have a choice. God doesn't make mistakes, but we do live in an imperfect world. I just want the outside to look like the inside feels.
