He's remarkable! He felt guilty that I kept myself hidden for such a long time (two decades!), and he says "I want you to embrace who you are." (I literally texted him, asking for his response to your comment.)
So much communication and honesty has come from our journey. I honestly don't know another couple that's as tightly woven as we are. He is my soul mate.
You seem to have had a similar experience with organized hypocrisy, I was involved in one of the larger and wealthiest religion. All that wealth and they were still extremely selfish and condescending to people who needed empathy and kindness, not judgemental comments.
Unfortunately, it seems to be the norm. Looking back, I sometimes feel guilty for pushing the hypocrisy aside or making excuses. "It's not everyone..." but it's systemic.
Wish I could have a conversation with your partner/husband to learn more about how he processes your development and maturity. Just sayin….

Such a breath of fresh air and honesty, vulnerability... Freeing. Thanks a bunch for your courage.
I'm eager to see what's next for you friend.
