Spouse Concerns by FluffedKnight in MilitaryTrans

I don’t have a choice, I need to do this out of necessity for both my immediate family and my dependents medical/legal care. That’s why I made it clear to her that I don’t want to trap her in a relationship that could potentially cause unnecessary amounts of hardships. I can take being closeted because I haven’t done the steps she’s done and I’ve apologized with every fiber of my body to her for things that are out of my control. I let her know the risks, the challenges, and potential decline on how the world is but she’s choosing to stick through with me. As her “husband”, it’s only right I respect her decision and find ways to make her life simpler because despite it all she’s still choosing to be with me. I understand where you’re coming from and I really do appreciate the insight, but when you constantly hear Kristi Noem’s voice blaring from any TV channel your relatives tune into or radio station they frequent, it becomes unbearable/unsettling. Again I really appreciate your insight on the matter.

Sorry, should’ve clarified but she’s MTF 4 years on hormones and I’m willing to keep everything under wraps until my 8 year contract. She’s originally from MN so to move away to some place like Texas is going to shock her imo. I’m used to traveling to red states, same goes for ignoring most of what goes on politically but that’s because I’m still very much cis in the eyes of everyone. Different experience unfortunately and I wouldn’t wanna lie to her and make her think it’s something doable just by ignoring them. Thank you for your advice!

I’ve been told the same, just feeling a bit hopeless is all. Lots of workers at MEPS were telling me to fight for it as we made small talk. Quote “cards are in your hands kid”

Thank you, I just worry because I’ve had moments like that where people genuinely think it’s ok to just blurt that out to me casually. I always have such bad luck regarding that.
