I get it.

I thought I'd share a thread Mrs Arcstriker started for couples such as yourselves here is the link

You'd probably get more traditional advice from them than most of us.

Good luck on your nuptials!!

i had no idea that thread was supposed to be about heteronormative relationships. i thought it was about trans folks and partners of trans folks (heteronormative or not).

c. and i have exchanged rings. i don't know if we'll ever have a ceremony, and we can't get legally married. my parents were gone well before we got together and he doesn't have a close relationship with his, although i might be meeting his dad at christmas. neither of us are big fans of tradition so there was no asking (nor would there ever be). the only person whose consent really matters to either of us is our own.

I missed the trans part. I thought it was just a general thread in "Dating, Marriage, Family".

snow referred steph to this thread:
Spouses/Partners of Transmen and transwomen... in the trans zone.
i got confused because i didn't think the thread was specifically about heteronormative relationships.

it's cool, we cleared up the confusion. (i think.)

I think she was thinking of the "spouses/partners of transmen and transwomen" thread that stephmit also started.
