I can admire those that stay, but also respect a decision to end the relationship. This doesn't mean that you have to become enemies, but you can never ask your partner to change their sexual desires completely. That's like asking a square to be a circle, or a pie to be a pot roast. Straight men that are attracted to transgendered women view TG women as women. Those same men are of course not attracted to other men.
On a transgender board such as this, I feel it's best to disclose all transitional aspirations with your partner so that everyone understands how each other feels, and where they see themselves in the future.

People change all the time and they are allowed to do so. That doesn't mean that they have to stay together. Compromising can be good, but no one has to accept compromise on everything. If you fall in love with a woman and then the woman decides to become a man again, there is nothing wrong with ending the romantic relationship because of the change.
I would still be friends with the person he wanted to be, but the physical part of our relationship would be over.
If I had an ongoing relationship with a part time CD that would be a little different since he becomes a she for role play purposes and that is the basis of our relationship. In other words I can date a transvestite when she's dressing, but not when he or she is not.
