[quote=Anonymous][quote]He claims he needs more time to figure this out, but it's been six months of circular conversations and no progress. I fear he truly wants to transition but is hiding it to make me happy. Help?[/quote] I'm the (queer, female) PP who ended a relationship over my partner transitioning, and I want to reframe this a little. Your husband is wrestling with something really big, so I'm not surprised you don't have a good answer six months later. Also, he may well actually want to transition but he's not "hiding it to make you happy." He's scared of what it means, because it's a long, costly, socially isolating path. But none of this means you have to go along for the ride. If you are not "oriented" toward a genderqueer or transfemme partner, you absolutely have the right to move on. You can cherish your time with someone, and support them in their new life, without actually being married to them. [/quote]
