My transgender girlfriend

When I was in my early 20s, I dated a transgender women for over two years. I do not have fetish oever transgender people. I just met her and fell in love with her. Before I knew she was a transgender woman, I liked her very much. She was a great person. There was something different about her, different than other women. When I was still in that transgender dating relationship, my friends and my family stopped calling trans women as shemale or tranny. They were very supportive and they all liked her very much. But she still committed suicide in the end.
