You haven’t finished it but we gotta dump this guy. 4 billion dudes on earth, no need to subject yourself to an ass. If he doesn’t see you as a guy, you don’t need to stay with him and suffer. Tell him to get fucked and find someone new

that he will never truly be a man to him. he said he will respect my identity but ill always just be feminine to him (apparently my feminine traits are sending the "your month your _" and "your initial your _" stuff from tiktok). he told me that i wasnt born a man and i dont know how men are treated growing up, so id never really be able to experience that. i really really love this guy, but this was such a huge blow to me. im incredibly dysphoric in my own body and hes even said before that he-

i don’t know if this helps give perspective, but as a trans guy who has a cis boyfriend, my bf very enthusiastically affirms that he *does* see me as a guy and openly supports me getting top surgery. being trans should not affect your partner’s support for you, and they should be happy for you in your transition

he has straight up said he will never see you as a man. you have to decide whether this instance of love or self respect and self love is more important to you.

is unsure if he wants me to get top surgery. he says he couldnt do anything about it since its my body and he respects that but im so terrified he will just start hating me and leave. TW: S/A hes also told me that he if my transness is because of my SA trauma that being a man "wont change how people view you." i have been out for 7 years at this point. even if it was linked to my trauma, that just feels so disrespectful to say.

Did we date the same guy because this is almost word for word exactly what my ex said to me. It’s easier said than done obviously but I’d say dump him. He’s said it himself, he’ll never actually see you for who you are, so there’s no point in wasting any more time on him. I’m really sorry you had to go through all that

Regarding the tiktoks plenty of my cis guy friends send me that stuff. No need to feel bad. But you're a guy. Don't keep yourself in a situation where the person you're dating thinks you're a girl.

Oh last thing. Saying what he said about top surgery is a little manipulative.

dump him. he loves the idea of the “girl” you not YOU. real love transcends gender, the right person will love the real you.
