I think you get one great love in your life like that, if you're lucky enough, where you hold nothing back. And I'm not saying that's the healthiest way to love either.

If you find yourself in a relationship or even a friendship with someone who's conflicted with their gender identity, just be kind. This is not a life choice. This is something that you are born with. This is like being born with a gene for being tall, short, black, white, gay, straight - it's not a choice.

I call myself out on my mistakes, but in telling the truth, sometimes it stings a little.

Getting divorced was the right decision for me, but it's not the right decision for everyone else.
