Incredible that people have careers based around telling those who are struggling to keep their chin up and not react because "They're clearly [doing worse thing than the last thing] to bait an excuse to [do even worse thing]."

I have this “friend” who clearly despises me but won’t let the friendship die. He called me last night and during the conversation said that some guy I liked might not be into because I’m trans. Like???? You don’t think I haven’t considered? He’s always trying to plant seeds of doubt
