I can only imagine how a 40-something wife with 2 teenagers try to get by when the husband / father / breadwinner suddenly up and leaves to go be a girl . I told myself I would never leave someone in that situation . That 's why I decided to break up with her . It was hard to do and , I ' m sure , harder for her to hear .
What will happen with the narrator and their partner ?
