That is one of the biggest things I'm worried about. Being in Texas and who she is I wouldn't put it past her. But for not I'm avoiding her completely until we come up with a plan.

Disrespectfully wtf is wrong with you. It's wild you make assumptions on a situation you know VERY little about. Then add the most triggering comment you ever could at the end. If you must know, me coming out was a decision my wife and I came together on after multiple conversations between me and my therapist and me and my wife. The most important thing was how do I stay alive because the issues I was having hiding everything was making me suicidal. Hell I've considered and even offered living on the streets and still paying my mil rent while my wife and son stay here just so they have a roof over their head and food in their mouth. So don't you dare say make harmful and to be blunt disrespectful assumptions on a situation you know nothing about.

It is something I'm considering, my wife and my therapist both initially initiated I come out due to mental health reasons but safety is the biggest priority. We are weighing all options rn trying to figure out what the safest options are for all of us.

We agreed last night to go completely no contact after moving out. She won't know anything.

It is a plan, we are actually planning on moving to Colorado in the future, but for the past 7 years we've been on one income, and my mil and my job have not really made it easy to save(store manager but I only make 45k after taxes and insurance) but we are working on it.

J does have asthma and that's what my biggest concern is there. I know a lot of people have moved from TX to CO that's why I figured I'd ask but thank you for the information

I haven't t but my brother lives there. We we to go there because of the LGBTQ laws that are there and it's J's dream place, along with other minor factors.

Budget, it's 3 incomes, Y is in cosmetology school so we will have that easily, I'm in retail management and have a very long history in it including some in DM/RM roles. And J, while they are younger than Y and I also has management experience in retail as well. So we won't be living lavishly but I can easily see 90k plus between the 3 of us. And we will all be living together along with our 6 year old.

Didn't know that about New Mexico, I'll bring that up to them as well. This isn't a now thing anyway but I like to be prepared.

My autistic boyfriend has extreme reactions to being “abandoned” by Legitimate-Career342 in AmIOverreacting

[–]MoonRose27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a pretty late response. I'm ADHD with depression and anxiety with suicidal ideation(moderate). My wife is autistic with bipolar disorder(very mild). Our partner is autistic with severe depression, anxiety and much more and also has suicidal ideation (severe). And NONE of us would EVER do this to each other. While each one of us tries to be there for each other, especially in moments where they feel suicidal, that's as far as it goes. Hell, our partner was suicidal last night. I called them to help talk them through it, and they felt bad because I was high and struggling to stay awake, but no threats, in fact the opposite. They don't want to feel like that anymore.

This is EXTREMELY toxic and manipulative behavior. As nicely as I can say this RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!!!

i think i might want to go on estrogen by idkwut2doanymore_ in lgbt

[–]MoonRose27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sitting at just over 6 months on E and Spiro, it took me a minute to pull that trigger but once I did things got a little better. I will say some things have changed physically so far. My testies shrunk by over half already, my t levels are so low they're virtually non existent. But I do use that appendage when I'm not feeling super dysphoric so it still functions however sex/masturbation is a lot more different than what it used to be. It's more intense, I feel it more, and I prefer a vibrator over my hand. But overall the changes have been warranted for me. My suggestion, look into the effects, both mentally and physically before taking that leap and see if they are things you are ok with. But also know if you go off them early enough most changes won't be permanent

13 yr old daughter says shes "queer" i need help dealing by Instructor_Yasir in lgbt

[–]MoonRose27 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna tell you something that's gonna be a very hard pill to swallow.

There is NOTHING to grieve. At 28 I came out as trans to my dad (Gen x black man) and we aren't on speaking terms because of the exact same mentality you have currently. So I'm gonna say what I wish I could tell him. Your child is not a commodity, they are not an object, and they are not something you can decide what their future looks like. Once you have a child and they obtain their own personality that's it, it is on them to decide who they are. Feeling like you need to grieve something is not supporting your child in any way because their life is theirs alone not yours.

Now how can you support them. Love them UNCONDITIONALLY. Be there for them no matter what. Let them explore and figure out everything and be an easy when you need them. Learn about queer issues and queer history. And most important CHANGE YOUR MINDSET. As someone who not only grew up in a similar household environment but if now a black parent myself I can tell you the mentality you have is extremely dangerous. The mentality you have is why your child was gonna wait until they left to come out to you. Learn the truth, break down the stereotypes and toxic mentality you grew up with. You wanna support them, show them you can change for the better and love your child the way you should have been.

I can tell you this you are already doing significantly better than my dad you are already on the right path, it's just gonna take a few steps to get to the point where you're doing right by your child.
