Ordinarily I wouldn’t post stuff like this, but I need to get it out of my system. I need to talk about it because otherwise I will never be able to move on.

This is Rylie in the black dress. I’m the one in the Blue dress. And we were dating. I was 6 weeks away from my one year anniversary with Rylie and she was one of the happiest, most loveable people I knew. She was kind, and strong hearted, and spoke her mind.

Unfortunately she suffered from depression.

On Sunday, July 16, 2015 Rylie passed away.

She dealt with abuse from the people around her, she dealt with biphobic comments, and rape jokes from her family. And it was not an Ideal situation to live in.

If she could have made it through one more month, she would have been in college, away from her family and safe.

And I’m posting this as a reminder to my followers and friends.

If you have kids, never, ever tell them that their love is wrong. That their gender identity is wrong. That their beliefs are wrong. Let your children be free to explore what makes them feel good about themselves. And don’t have kids if you aren’t prepared to love them unconditionally.

R.I.P. Rylie. I can’t believe this is really happening and I miss her so much. I love the two of you dearly and hope I can be there for you in the future. I’m so sorry this happened. 

So many notes. oh my god. Thank you guys so much for this. Tonight we had to lay her to rest and she was absolutely beautiful, so at peace and gentle. We cried a TON and each of us let go a part of our past for her. There is nothing more beautiful to return to than seeing her get the attention she deserved. Rylie will always be in our hearts. Thank you so much.
