She was never happy with the way I was, just with how she wanted me to be. She liked the idea of me, not me. She got weirded out at me for liking girls and being born one, she tried to get me to apologize to God, become His servant, and "convert" and keeps asking me to read the Bible and form a relationship with a being I don't believe exists. She also she found out I was genderfluid. This was the last straw for me. She asked why my pronouns were "she AND he". I said I'm genderfluid. She asked if God made a mistake with my gender, and then said no because God never makes mistakes and I should just be a straight Christian girl forever. Is this toxicity disguised as "love" or am I overreacting?

Straight, older cis guy here saying you're doing the right thing for you, and you are the only person you have to answer to for what choices you make about your life. Do you really think bowing to other people's manipulations is going to end up well? Would you do what she is to anyone else? Assuming the answer is "no" (as it should be), then you're definitely not doing anything wrong.

Just like she puts herself & her preferences first, so should you with yours.

(Sorry if my presence makes anyone uncomfortable - I like to browse "all" and saw this post. Thought my two cents might be helpful, but I'm sorry if it's not.)
