Hello Gabrielle.
I know how that feels girl. I told my parents when i was 5 years old i was a girl, only for them to tell me; Its a phase im going through and i would grow out of it.
Well i never did. I spent years trying to be what they and the rest of society wanted me to be. All the time being miserable. Hell i did not even know how to be a boy. How was i going to do this. So i ended up mocking the boys in the neighborhood, doing what they did, saying the things they said, i just did my best to try and blend in to where i did not belong.
i did that for years, 53 years to be exact. When i made the mistake of telling them i was transitioning to my true self and my true sex,. FEMALE. They disowned me, even my brother and sister did.
At that time i just wanted it to be over, either the surgeries to be a true woman in body and spirit, of for my life to be over.
Well as you can see i am still here. even thought most of the surgeries have yet to be done. i am still working towards them.
Hang in their girlfriend, and when you need to talk, hit me up here or on TWITTER.
Marcy Ella Nelson.
Huggs girl.
