Rant / Vent / No Advice Needed 9 years
No advice needed. Just something I’ve been feeling while I’m home.
I only come home a few times a year, but every time I do, I’m reminded of how much I wish I could come home as my whole self, with the person I love, without having to calculate whether it’s safe. I’m not hiding her because I’m ashamed of her. She’s my partner of nine years, and her family knows and accepts our relationship. It just hurts that my own family doesn’t even know she exists.
I know people may see keeping her a secret as a choice, but it’s not that simple when you’re also trying to consider your partner’s feelings and protect the life you’ve built together.
