Telling my parents that I’m trans, now I’m mostly in closet, because I tried telling my parents twice and they both thought it was a phase, but I haven’t felt like a girl since I was a baby, and I don’t want my parents to still think of me as a non binary person, because I hate the gender I was assigned to at birth, I’m a boy, trapped in the body of a girl, and whose parents think that it’s a phase, I’m sick and tired of it! I NEED TO LIVE MY TRUE AUTHENTIC SELF, I DON’T WANT ANYONE TO ASSUME THAT I’M STILL NON BINARY!!!
trusting someone who attempted to bully me into suicide despite appearing nice the first bit.(then the person gaslighted me)
Marrying for the absolute stupidest reason!
Not letting one of my best friends know i was leaving. I was in my gay panic kinda phased, and my best friend was a trans ace/aro (assigned female at birth, has come out as a man) and neither of us knew that the other was queer. I applied to the best art school in the state, and left that horrible school. But I never told my best friend. He followed, and came to the school a year later, and we are on good terms now, but I truly regret that, especially since I left someone in their own gay panic without even a heads up. We are great friends again, but I still regret it years later.
yeah, I get it. As a person who's been to a lot of different schools in their life, you're always gonna wish there was someone you could just talk to for five minutes. See where their life is at. Get them to follow you.

Lying about a relationship. It was the most horrible thing I honestly could've done to my parents, because they supported me and wanted me to be in a relationship if I wanted to, but I decided to lie because I knew the person I was in a relationship with wouldn't have made my parents happy. That gut feeling was the first sign that the relationship wasn't healthy. It bombed my mental health and I'm still not sure if ended in flames or an exploding fire hydrant.
