I was trying to decide if I should / could help this person. And were to try to help them, how would go about it. I generally find trans only forums to be echo chambers. I see you're point and I'll take your advice. People do need to learn from their mistakes, for me posting this here seems to have been one of them. I will not be a busy body.
I don't believe I have any special rights to tell people who they are (or are not). That is why I said "I don't want to be the identity police, and I don't want to hurt a friend. " If you someone you care about is expending a large amount of their limited resources toward a goal. And you knew them well enough to think they will be miserable if they get to that goal. Would you say you something? Or is it better keep your mouth shut because you might be wrong, or they might not understand that all you want to do is save them heartache? Because that is what I was asking myself when I posted this.
After reading the replies to this (especially Jamie's) I'm not going to interfere.
You're a good egg Crystal, just don't bring your problems to this viper pit. People are just gonna get there boners all over your issues. Talk to your friend. Once. Leave it be. Wait for the results.
Heres an idea......Why dont we alle just let people live their lives as they sit fit für themselves!
