It’s been nearly a year that this 19-year-old girl and her 24-year-old boyfriend have been in a relationship.

Back when she first started dating her boyfriend, she had no clue that he loves to dress up like a woman, and that’s only something she found out as they started seeing one another more.

When it did dawn on her that he’s into cross-dressing, she didn’t really mind, as they were in the honeymoon phase.

But then she learned that her boyfriend isn’t just wearing feminine clothes; he also likes to wear a fake chest.

They have even had a lengthy conversation about how he wishes he had a real chest and would like to go on estrogen. However, he vehemently denies that he is transgender.

“I want to be supportive of him, and I don’t want him to have to hide any part of himself,” she explained.

“So it makes it difficult for me to ask him not to do it anymore. Plus, if he was to do so- I know he’d just be depressed.”

“He often sends me videos of him dressed up, but I just don’t feel anything for it. I do not feel attracted to him when he dresses up. I’ve told him this once, but I don’t think he quite understood.”

When they go out together, her boyfriend will always gush over some girl’s outfit. When he’s not dressed up himself, he goes on and on about how sad he is about not having a feminine outfit on.

This only serves to make her sadder, as she wishes she could support him, but his love of female clothing doesn’t make her happy at all.

She watches other girls and their boyfriends interacting in public, and it makes her envious. She feels as if she’s missing out.

A handful of her loved ones have mentioned she should probably dump her boyfriend since his cross-dressing puts so much stress on her, but she would hate to do this and hurt his feelings.

“And he has done so much for me; bought me so many gifts, maybe close to $1,000 spent on me,” she said.

“He is also always talking about how he is excited to live together and get married, it just makes me feel hollow. It just feels like I’m a terrible person for feeling this way.”

“I just wish we never got together and that we were just friends. I feel like I would’ve been happier that way. Another complicated part of it is that we work together. I would feel pressured to quit if we did go our separate ways. I’m just worried about what he would do if we broke up.”

She’s tired of babysitting her boyfriend’s feelings, and she’s left wondering how she can break the news to him that she’s miserable in the kindest way.
