Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I’m a gay guy and I was in a relationship with someone for 10 years who came out as transgender and it ended our romantic/sexual relationship, though we’re still best friends and still live together even. If you haven’t experienced it I don’t really think you can understand how it feels to have a relationship end in this way - not because you stopped loving eachother or because you argued or anything like that, but just because someone’s gender identity or sexuality changed.
It’s sad, yes, but it’s also kind of happy, because you want your partner to self-actualise and become the person they truly want to be.
I’m assuming this scenario happened to someone in the real world, and I don’t think you should be telling them that they’re basically wrong for feeling this way about it.
