Too cold to contemplate

The idea that, when I wasn’t the boy my parents had hoped for, they couldn’t love me anyway.

That’s hard, but you need to find a way to put it to rest, because it shouldn’t be keeping you from joy now.

I can love me anyway. But I was gun shy for years. It was more than them hoping for a boy. They were so sure I’d be a boy, they didn’t even choose a girls name for me. It’s a little different now since parents can know months in advance. Takes away the shock.
