I don't feel bad for the rich people and I don't feel bad about it. I just told my fiancée that I want to start HRT and she said she needs to talk to a counselor because she has issues with it. She really doesn't like any kind of change in her life.
Sorry to hear about your fiancée. Give her time, talking to a counselor is probably the best decision she could make. Answer any questions she has for you and talk realistically about what transition will mean for you.
I mainly feel guilty because its in my nature to care about people
Usually I care too much
But sorry to hear about your fiance, hope you can work something out that is benefical
I wouldn't feel guilty about not caring about a high-profile death. People you've never heard of die every minute, and we aren't equipped with enough empathy to care about them all.
I'm... hanging in there. The overlap between the Christian and Trans communities is nearly non-existent, and both are blaming the other for all the world's problems, so being both is really fucking hard right now. My pastor just recently went out of his way to make sure we understood that LGBT=bad and I feel like I should complain but don't know how to do so without outing myself. I wish I could transition without losing everyone I know and love, and have found myself passively pushing away from old relationships. I've been looking into other churches but finding a place that is actually accepting and actually teaches the Bible feels just as impossible as transitioning right now.
You could call your pastor a heretic because he doesnt follow your doctrine correctly(jesus loves everyone unconditionally, including sinners) but I doubt it would do anything.
Glod luck though
I know I shouldnt feel guilty about not caring, but the fact is caring and empathy are in my nature
