The Wife of Someone Else's Dreams
To help the one she loved find peace, she had to lose pieces of herself.
He was searching-for identity, for wholeness, for the version of himself he was meant to be. And she, the woman who loved him beyond reason, stood by his side through every fracture and reconstruction. But in helping him become, she slowly began to unravel.
To love him meant understanding his pain, even when he pushed her away. To stay meant silencing her own hurt, her needs, her voice. Each day, she poured herself into his healing, even as she faded into the background of his new life, until she was no longer a partner-but a placeholder. A wife in title only. A caretaker of someone else's becoming.
Her heart? Still full of love-but broken, hollowed, and offered up like a prayer he never answered.
This is a story of dysphoria and devotion. A haunting tale of the woman who stood in the shadows so her partner could walk in the light-and what it cost for her to be the wife of someone else's identity dreams.
