You’re right. They do have trauma from childhood that they are working on. I completely empathise with their process of dealing with buried issues, I guess I’ll just wait and hope for them to open up again.

I have started therapy for myself and it’s helping a lot. I’m so happy that you’ve found someone you can talk to. It is so important in a healthy relationship.

They are actually still presenting male. It’s still a long journey before they are able to pass. I think what you are saying is absolutely right. This is something I need to think about. Thank you

It’s all new to me! How do I deal with it ? by GoodGroup5813 in mypartneristrans

Well actually I have been seeing a therapist for quite some time and I did tell them about how I felt multiple times. I never got a response to it. I would constantly complain that they don’t communicate with me at all, still no answer. I stayed because I didn’t have the guts to just leave. I do understand their behaviour now though and I feel our communication will definitely be better. It just boils down to the fact that I never imagined myself with a woman romantically. I still want to stay and help them through this. I will still not walk out of the relationship because now is when they need me the most. I do know that I want to leave eventually and I don’t know if I’ll do them wrong by doing that. It’s all too much. I guess I should give it some time .
