Y’all I feel so bad, I had the beginnings of a migraine earlier and my words weren’t wording and i accidently told my (trans) husband he wasn’t a dude, I tried to correct it so quick but I’m so scared I secretly upset him

Please don’t take this personally because I mean well but to be honest, it sounds like you have some internalized transphobia that slipped out and now you’re trying to get sympathy on this app to make yourself feel better by making excuses instead of owning up to your mistakes, looking inward, bettering yourself, and apologizing to your husband

1. I did apologize to him and corrected myself. 2. Have you ever had a migraine? They jumble up words so badly and cause a ton of brain fog, I’d been trying to say “i forgot you weren’t born a dude” because we were talking about peeing in the woods (camping), but it came out “I forgot you weren’t a dude”, it was a mistake

That’s valid. Yes I live with chronic migraines and brain fog every day due to a TBI- event being 8 months ago on the job. Now im disabled due to it. Although migraines due jumble words, they also take away filters which can reveal some internalized thought processes. So it could be either and is worth thinking about. Either way, it wasn’t intentional of you and you aren’t a bad person :) sorry you deal with migraines too

Yeah, mine aren’t chronic (I’m so sorry you have to deal with those, they’re horrible) mine are just allergy triggered, the problem is I’m allergic to a shit ton of different pollens and again, we were out in the woods so the migraine was inevitable, I don’t think he’s upset because he hasn’t said anything and we had fun the rest of the trip and swimming and all was well after far too many allergy pills were consumed
