My religious "best friend"

(for context-- i am a trans man who came out earlier in 2026, i am also bisexual with a lovely boyfriend who is also transsexual :) )

Most of my life i had 1 friend, we can call her V even tho i dont think it really matters. i was always by her side ever since i was 10, so its been like 5-6 years. we were INSEPERABLE from the first day of secondary. however, the next year i had to move outside of london. (year 8)
I still kept in contact with her, i often met up with her and i tried to visit her and her dog as many times as possible while also trying to maintain my social life in the new school, however i didnt feel right. (BECAUSE I REALIZED I WAS TRANS)

I then moved schools AGAIN because i wasnt even meant to be in that school in the first place and i met new people.. again. i felt more comfortable with a few of them as my last school was very hectic and a lot of them were religious (catholic or islamic mainly in both schools from year7-8, i didnt fit in because my parents werent following the same religion as eachother so i often got asked the same question about that, not even i knew or my parents knew.??) 
More towards the older years i finally discovered that i was indeed trans and not just a stupid idiot who likes to pose as a guy on the internet to reassure myself. i then transitioned alongside going through counselling and going to queer youthgroups to discover myself. i always kinda knew i wanted to be a guy though, even in primary school. 

One of the first people i told was V, and i thought she wouldnt accept me, i was just preparing myself for the big pushover but surprisingly she didnt seem that bothered about it, she was just confused and wanted me to explain the surgeries and stuff. so YAY! 

However, after meeting my boyfriend for the first time i told V about it.. heres basically how the convo went:

"wow i think i might like this guy" 

"i thought you liked girls?" (v)

"yeah but i also might like guys idk"

"...no.. ur straight" 

?? what do you mean IM straight. you cant simply decide my gender because being gay alongside being trans is pushing it for you. im not even gay, im bisexual.. well that doesnt really make a difference since id still snog a man but whatever.

she thought i just wouldnt get close to my boyfriend who wasnt my boyfriend at the time and was just some random dude but little did she know i was gonna end up dating him.. so.. in ur face, v .. 

she doesnt really speak to me at all now but i do see her post her new group of friends on social media, they act NOTHING like me but im glad she found her own group, i found mine too

but really dude fuck you why did you say that ...
