when he found out i’m taking hrt he got emotional. Of course.

“So that’s why you were never happy whenever we measured you and you’d grown taller again” Tears.

Maybe i’m biased for him but this genuinely struck me as deep understanding for a middle-aged cis man. It’s not like I cried back then, i just appeared serious or somewhat annoyed. Is it significant?

“It must’ve been so hard to keep it all to yourself. You didn’t trust us…” Tears.

it seemed he genuinely thought it was his and mom’s failure that i couldn’t trust them. That i didn’t mention anything about what i was feeling. In contrast my mum told me that i’d lied to her, betrayed her trust. She’s also insinuated that it’s a phase quite a few times.
