I am a closeted trans girl, I only have one friend that knew about it but because I never toldher about how I felt about it, she never really treated me diffrent than before. I was starting to get sad because it wasent as I wished it would of been. What I didnt realize is to just talk to her about it and how I felt, and it worked! Sehe treats me how I see the reak me, she makes me feal included and loved. I never felt this amazing since a long time. I am just scraping the surface of discovering who I truly am thanks to her. Thank you, for so much...

I was nervous the whole day, but at lunch I figured I’d just go for it. We were sitting with a couple other friends I trust, and I was literally about to say it…

Then out of nowhere she starts saying stuff like “only REAL women should be celebrated on Women’s Day, trans women aren’t real women.” I just froze. She kept going too, saying Women’s Day is about the pain “real” women go through and that trans people don’t have anything to worry about.

And then one of my other friends started agreeing with her.

I was so angry I felt like I was gonna explode, but I tried to keep it together and argue back without making it obvious why it mattered so much to me. At least one friend had my back, but still…

I don’t know. It just really hurt. I trusted her enough to want to tell her something that big, and then she said all that right in front of me.

I’ve been kinda avoiding her since then, but yeah… it still hurts a lot.
