I just found out my best friend of over a decade is transphobic. I don't really have more to say. I'm just devastated and feeling really alone.

I’m so sorry, sending love your way. People can change, and it may take you moving on from them and finding more loving and supportive community for that time happen, but it’s not something you can/should be expected to force. You deserve supportive people in your life! They’re out there and ready to accept you with open arms ❤️

I feel your pain. May you find 10 more friends just as close as the one you lost; who are not transphobic.

Or maybe someday you'll have luck in educating the one you lost. Whatever the outcome; know that you are valid and accepted. Some people just haven't caught up yet.
