Sometimes cisgender people find themselves in a relationship with a transgender person. Often times the cis person doesn't know how to act and fucks up.

And of course, some of this can apply when you're just friends with a trans person or you need a lesson on how to be a decent person. A small disclaimer that not all trans people are or act the same, this is just a guideline to help people out.
Long Distance: It Works If You Work for It

Like really, what is the appeal to a relationship that is literally seeing each other once every couple weeks, if you're lucky, and then being apart for the majority of your time together?

Growing up, especially for girls, friends are imperative. They were the lifeline to surviving our teenage years. Of course, these friendships weren't always easy. They were filled with plenty of drama, break ups, and the occasional little push and shove. OK, maybe the verbal and sometimes physical debacles were just my friends and me, but for every shove and insult came hugs, tears, and promises of friendship forever. What can I say, that's how central New Jersey girls roll. Ha!
