WHEN Myreek and Xavier matched on Tinder, sparks flew, but the relationship wasn't a straightforward one. Xavier told Love Don't Judge, "I was straight until I met my fem boy. I never saw myself dating another man - meeting Myreek, it really made things clear, the more I spoke to him." Myreek - who is a big fan of make-up and wigs - is often mistaken as being trans, but he says it's not the case. "I love women, but I personally don't identify as a woman. That is really hard for a lot of people to understand, just because of how I present." Online, the pair are often scrutinised over their relationship. Myreek admitted, "The judgement that we faced was cruel. People who just didn't understand that we loved each other for who we truly are." In this episode of Love Don't Judge, Myreek's friend, Kahlen, will be revealing his thoughts on the couple.

00:00I was straight until I met my femboy.
00:02People think I'm trans, but I promise you, I'm just a femboy.
00:06People will say things like, he should really be with women.
00:10He don't even know.
00:11He's being tricked.
00:13True.
00:14Is that a man?
00:15You're going to burn in the lake of fire.
00:18Ooh.
00:19Oh, my god.
00:20Today, my friend Colin is coming over
00:22to discuss how he felt about our relationship.
00:25And he will definitely not hold back his opinions.
00:30I'm Xavier.
00:32This is my partner, my reed.
00:33And I was straight until I met my femboy.
00:36We met on Tinder.
00:38It was a thirst trap.
00:39You were shirtless.
00:41And I was just like, who is that?
00:43Swipe right.
00:44Thank you, Lord.
00:45That's mine.
00:46And he had his makeup done.
00:47He had his wig.
00:48He really carried himself.
00:51I started doing makeup when I went over a friend's house.
00:54And she kind of just had everything laid out.
00:57And my biggest thought was, can I play in your makeup?
01:01And I just never let go of it.
01:04Gorgeous.
01:05Just adds a little bit of pop.
01:07And this can also be used as like a little bit of a highlighter.
01:10Now we just got to do the other side.
01:12Adding a little bit of shimmer goes a long way.
01:15My sexuality before meeting Mayrik, I would say I was straight.
01:22You know, I was attracted to only females at the time.
01:25A lot of confusion, a lot of questioning myself in the mirror.
01:29And then, you know, meeting Mayrik, it really made things clear the more I spoke to him.
01:36I never saw myself dating another man because all my life I was taught to be straight.
01:45I would describe my sexuality as gay.
01:48I love being a homosexual.
01:50There was no closet for me.
01:51It was rhinestones and clear.
01:53The judgment that we faced when starting our relationship was cruel people who just didn't
02:00understand that we loved each other for who we truly were.
02:06Someone said, why is he with a very feminine man?
02:10Why does he just get with a woman?
02:12How the can a man feel comfortable kissing another man?
02:17Gotta feel weird.
02:18How about this one?
02:19They're going to burn in the lake of fire.
02:21Ooh.
02:22Oh my God, people.
02:24So they both are boyfriends in the relationship?
02:28Question mark.
02:29That's a man.
02:30Well, he knows.
02:31Wow.
02:32Well, that's something that we did not know.
02:34Oh my God.
02:35Thank you for finally telling me.
02:36Oh my God.
02:37I didn't know.
02:38I'd never known.
02:39A misconception that a lot of people make about our relationship is that I want to be a
02:44woman.
02:49I love women, but I personally don't identify as a woman.
02:55And that is really hard for a lot of people to understand just because of how I present.
02:59I started dressing more feminine February of 2022.
03:05It was something that I really enjoyed.
03:08It just was a freedom that I never knew I needed.
03:13Just because I dress feminine also, like, I still identify as a man.
03:17No, I just want to show this one out because this one means a lot to me because, you know,
03:23this was my first time seeing Beyonce and going to her cowboy car concert.
03:28My friends were more supportive in the beginning.
03:31My family, on the other hand, though, I couldn't go to certain family events, you know, dolled
03:37up or I couldn't go to certain places.
03:40You know, it was it was rough.
03:42The beginning was really rough.
03:43But overall, I think we've now come to a point where they accept me for who I am.
03:51So the wig that I have on now is my favorite one.
03:55It's a curtain vein wig.
03:57And then another wig that I have that I also really love.
04:00I first started wearing wigs around the time that I did the Bob Marley movie premiere for Black TikTok.
04:08It was my very first wig ever.
04:12I've always wanted long, beautiful hair.
04:14So wearing wigs is just a really good way of me being able to express exactly what I've always wanted to express,
04:22which is the hair toss and, you know, the grandiosity of it all.
04:27The judgment makes me feel it hurts because I'm a human being.
04:32But I look at it the bigger picture.
04:34You know, people will always judge me regardless.
04:36The judgment makes me feel sad, but sad because there's a lost empathy within humanity.
04:44And people are cruel for no reason.
04:50Today, my friend Colin is coming over to discuss how he felt about our relationship.
04:55And he will definitely not hold back his opinions.
05:00My name is Colin.
05:02I've been friends with Mayreek for a while.
05:04I hid the relationship from my family because I was scared to completely embrace the fact that I was in love with a man.
05:15They knew that I liked men, but I never told them about my relationship.
05:19The biggest fear was losing family for being who I am.
05:23When they found out I was dating a man, they were very surprised because my whole life, like,
05:28they really believed that I was just going to be this straight guy.
05:32You know, so for me to come out of nowhere and I was like,
05:36boom, I'm gay, boom, I have a boyfriend.
05:39For a man so masculine to have to be a homosexual, that surprises everybody.
05:46What did you think when we first got together?
05:50You know how they're dating this in the Atlanta show.
05:53Accurate.
05:54So I didn't know what to think.
05:56It was just more like, I mean, the thing is you really like him.
05:59So at the end of the day, you know, if you like it, I love it type of vibe.
06:02Yeah, yeah.
06:03So, but it was like, you know, I wasn't sure only just because Atlanta though.
06:07That's one reason.
06:08Did you ever expect me to date someone like Xavier?
06:13I never had an expectation for who you were going to date,
06:16but I do feel like we both know, like being in this community,
06:19that like there's lots of different spectrums of things and et cetera.
06:23So it's not that I like didn't expect it.
06:26I think it was just not as common, you know, within the queer community.
06:29I think like the fact that you are doing that is you are, I would say is the word anomaly,
06:36like just not the common.
06:37Yeah.
06:38So I think it's just more like that.
06:39That's how I view it.
06:40I just think it's a beautiful thing that, you know, Xavier, that you are being yourself.
06:44So Xavier, did you ever imagine that you would date another man?
06:47I was taught for so long my whole life to just like women, get a wife, get kids.
06:54It was just something within me that wanted to break out.
06:57You know, I was in the closet basically.
06:59So it wasn't until I found myself.
07:02That's when I found my rig.
07:04So Kyle, what do you think about our relationship now?
07:07I love it.
07:12Because the thing is like, I didn't know what was going to happen.
07:15You never know what's going to happen.
07:16Yeah.
07:17You never know what's going to happen.
07:18It is so crazy to see it transform into this.
07:21It is so beautiful.
07:22And like I said, it literally makes me feel like inspired.
07:25Cheers.
07:26Let's get out.
07:27You know what I'm saying?
07:28A hug, a hug.
07:29Oh, yes.
07:30I love you.
07:31I love you too, man.
07:32Yes.
07:33All right.
07:34All right, y'all.
07:35See ya.
07:36Bye, see ya.
07:37What I love most about Xavier is his heart.
07:40He is one of the most kindest intentional people.
07:44What I love about Mauricus.
07:46I would say also his heart.
07:48He's courageous.
07:49He's thoughtful.
07:51His love.
07:52He will never give up on you.
07:54I never had that in my life.
07:57To the people that judge us, go to hell.
08:01I'm kidding.
08:02I would say we don't care about your judgment.
08:05It's not about you.
08:06This is our world.
08:08You're just living in it.
08:09You're just living in it.
08:14This is my life.
08:16I love you all.
08:17This is my2017 J.
