>>81679967>Honestly you would probably make better pretends than most heterosexual couples manwe were both abused horribly and are very sensitive people to the suffering of children. its partly why im very skeptical of if we would be good fits as parents together.
>there are so many kids in shitty situations that would probably thrive if moved to a household like yours> guess if you're not into the adoption stuff (where you would be an objective net positive) then it makes senseim sure there would, and the concept of taking in a kid is not something im against, but its missing the biological factor:
continuing both of our genetics through someone, being connected to that someone and fostering their health, being able to claim that person as apart of your two shared lineage. It's very important to both of us that happens, especially me.
I know an adopted kid would have elements of that, taking after mannerisms and ways of life, but it doesn't have the full impact. there's a reason that people insist on creating new life rather than adopting another's: biology and genetics matter a lot.
>Aw man. I desperately wish you two can be happy together somehowI hope so too, but I doubt it'll work. i plan to talk to my therapist about it and im encouraging him to talk to one too (he has a lot of baggage as well, I think it'll be positive for him).
I would love for it to work, he's so perfect, it's just he's a dude. I wish he was a girl so bad, but nothing I can do can change reality.
