Here’s my take as someone who was (I feel) badly treated by my ex when it came to my transition.
Many relationships don’t survive a gender transition, and that’s not necessarily either person’s fault. But it makes a huge difference when and how your partner tells you they’ve gone as far along your path with you as they can go.

@ciara Having a bisexual spouse tell me that almost any amount of transitioning would mean the end of our marriage was extremely hurtful, and revealed that she did not actually love and value me as a person. Having her tell me this almost immediately after I came out to her felt like a mortal blow, as though she’d just been waiting for an excuse to ditch me. @Willow @Tessa @eri

@ciara But if she had supported me and loved me as a person while I started transitioning, then eventually said, “I love you, but this version of you isn’t for me romantically/sexually”—I’d still have been devasted and angry, but I think over time I would have understood. @Willow @Tessa @eri
