Nay

Consider journaling about them. It might give you some insight that would be hard to get otherwise!

That was amazing, thank you!

Thanks for sharing! I can relate to a lot of your experience. Not dressing out for PE, wearing a shirt at the pool, hating facial hair, that feeling of feminizing and not looking back. And after everything, I'd still pick cis-woman if I could reroll my character.

My only advice is to just live it up and follow what feels right. If I can be just a little cliche; Life is about the journey, not the destination!

(I'll try to add a little more to this soon. In a bit of a weird head space at the moment, but I at least wanted to get something of a reply to you.)

I'm out of the loop. What happened with Neil Gaiman?

😳

you and everyone else don't have the ability to change any of that

I beg to differ.

This is some wisdom right here. Thanks! 😊

Sadly this might be the case.

They say they want to improve, but I kinda feel like they aren't even self aware enough to know what they want.

Thanks for taking the time to reply with all that.

There is a lot of avoidance going on despite them vocally asserting that they want to get better and are willing to try new ideas. But when the rubber meets the road, there is nothing but excuses.

I've tried asking deeper questions that require introspection, just to hear "I don't know how to answer that."

It feels like a lost cause, but a big part of what got me out of my own pit is that I don't easily let things go. (Not bragging, it gets me in trouble a lot, too)

I'll definitely keep your advice in mind and let you know if it helps!
