Friendship

I had a wonderful conversation with a dear friend yesterday. I am sad to think that I have damaged this friendship. Not because I told him about Caroline, but because of what Caroline will do to a balanced male-male friendship.
My wife does not, nor do I, allow male - female friendships.
I was foolish enough to think and state that I didn't want this transgenderism to effect our friendship. Unless I decide to de-transition, I guess it must.
I can look forward to female - female relationships and all that they can offer, but the price of these changes has already been steep, Like the price of gas, I guess it's going to continue to go up.
I am sad.
