Man that is some complex dynamic right there.

Totally didn't expect this, but if that's what makes her happy, then go for it. We should all be supportive through this time.

props to him for doing what he's always felt he needed to!

If this is what he wants than good for him.

Good for him/her. Do what's right for you
