I'm not sure if this is considered appropriate for 3FC, but I did notice there was a LGBT thread on here, so I hope this is okay. I need some serious advice/support. Basically, my "GF" just "came out" to her parents again; but this time she let slip the little fact that "she" is in fact a "he" and is going to go through with top surgery, as well as Testosterone in the near future. Sam told her mother, which apparently devastated her. She proclaims that she can't eat or sleep (which I know to be false as we're currently living in the same house). Now there's constant fighting, day and night whenever her Dad isn't around, because he wasn't supposed to know. Sam's mom said there was no way she was telling him, but apparently turned around and informed him a few days ago (i wondered why he was giving me a fairly annoyed look). All I hear practically all day long is her yelling about how it's wrong, it goes against God and that we don't know what we're doing. She keeps insinuating that we're doing it to be accepted, when the fact is that Sam is straight, and I'm just open minded. Sam's mom keeps kicking up dust and starting fights left and right over things that are completely unrelated. I'm not kidding, she's looking to pick fights any chance she gets. She says she doesn't want to talk about it, and then keeps bringing it up in conversations and pulling Sam aside for talks. She's slamming doors and storming around the house, saying some choice things about me when I'm not in the room even though I can hear through the thin walls. She also keeps making comments like "I don't know who put this idea in you head", "you're being influenced", and similar comments hinting that she thinks I'm all to blame. She outright scoffed at Sam's mention of accepting who she loves-- yes, she thinks our love is a joke. Right now I'm just really worried about the stability of our living arrangement. We both lost our jobs and apartment after a car accident a few months back, and have since been living here. We pay for bills, our own food, and even $100-200/mo to support her mother's Chiropractic appointments. It just seems like we're not going to be here much longer with the way things are going; we're still receiving medical treatment from a Chiropractor, and thus still accruing bills for the injury claim. Until we get that claim money from the car accident, there's no way we can afford to live on our own. Now my GF is talking about stopping our Chiropractic treatment and asking our lawyer to make a demand for money. It's premature, and we won't be able to get all our expenses paid. I don't know how to live, stuck between a cliff's edge and a rampaging bull. Please, please help. Any words of encouragement, or understanding would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Regards,
Kimberley
