    Weeks Off?

    Do any of you girls just take like 2 weeks off? It's just like I have an increase of testosterone for like 2 weeks and I'm not interested in dressing, although I still feel the need to be girly.

    I haven't dressed since I posted my first pictures here and I don't know why. I just don't feel the need. It'll pop back up in like a few days, and I'll just always be in my girly stuff, but I always skip like 2 weeks for some reason?

    There are members here who go for months without dressing, just recently Debs went from dressing on the 1st Jan and did not dress again until a couple of weeks ago .............. life got in the way in some instances and at other times she just did not dress ......... it is a common theme, some are what they class as seasonal dressers
    I allow myself to set healthy boundaries ..... to say no to what does not align with my values, to say yes to what does.
    Boundaries assist me to remain healthy, honest and living a life that is true to me

    Sure, all the time. I have full/most of my body hair about half the year, and dress fully on maybe 20 or 30 days a year. For me, it's not that big a deal.

    If I skip a day, the urge to dress is always that much stronger on the following day. I can't imagine going a whole week, let alone 2! But I do understand to some degree the need for male time. It's just on smaller timescales with me.

    Well, nothing in my world fits on a calendar, but yes.

    Just as most things, CD is similar to a toy in a big toybox for me. For example, I decided to take a couple week break from cyberspace. Before I knew it, two years went by before I logged on again! Yahoo clubs were gone, etc.

    I am never bored. I always have several weird projects, art/etc going on. When I get focused on something, I just follow my interests. I do not miss other things or I would be playing with them. It kind of a compartmentalized deal.

    But, I do dress almost everyday. Hey if we can't change our minds every once in awhile...why have one, eh?

    That happens often to me, but usually longer than two weeks. I will say that since I've been active here, the urge to dress is the strongest that it has ever been. I love this forum!

    It comes and it goes, such is life. Most of the time no one makes us dress like a girl, so if you don't feel like it, why bother. When you do, go for it, and enjoy it to the max.
    To borrow from that candy bar, "sometimes you feel like a girl/sometimes you don't! or you can put back the word nut, for me it works either way.

    As Tina said, circumstances (can) dictate. If I've got work away from home, family or other company, then I have to put off dressing, but its irregular.

    Weeks off?

    Years ago yes but now as a retired senior that lives alone I'm 24/7. The only time I dress drab is when I go to the doctors or grocery store. My other shopping is done on line. Today
    after having breakfast I put on my tennis skirt,bra,see thru T shirt,socks & tennis shoes to water my trees & various plants on the terrace. I am still dressed that way & OH all in white.

    It happens. Dressing can be such a drug that I just can't get enough of, but then other times it can be a real chore. Luckily usually it is fun I do find that when I dress a lot there is a pattern, first angst and excitement then I grow comfortable I like this stage because I feel that I am passing well and it is really fun. Then I grow tried of it and see dressing as a waste of time and money and I also realize that most people just don't care what you wear as long as your a pleasant person. I guess the biggest thing about dressing is Have fun and enjoy yourself if your not have fun why do it

    I tend to dress when and if I have time. These days since I am not working I have lots of time . Thus i am usually dressed when at home.

    Im also in that stage myself. Ive even started wearing male boxers again (This might be also related to the fact that all my undies are in the massive laundry pile screaming at me accross the room), which is very odd since ive exclusively wore panties for almost two years now. Ive been going through some really difficult times with my SO and I think the stress about the arguments and about the fact that she'll be leaving to Europe for six months. I move in to my apartment in June and when Im alone I know that I will be getting some dresses and a bra and Il probably dress for a week straight (after I get home from work of course)

    A Conditional Thing

    Being able to dress is always a when possible thing. Familial situations and that sort of stuff can lead to months off.
    The season of not dressing for me is Summer, maybe one day
    Peace

    Wow that sounds exactly like me. Me and my girlfriend are having problems and it's stressing me out a lot. I've been depressed a lot and I just don't feel in the mood.

    My laundry pile in the closet is huge and a lot of my panties are in there. But I'm wearing boxers again.

    I want to transition eventually, but I don't know why this happens to me.

    I was like that for 3 months. One day the urges just stopped and I didn't dress again until a few weeks ago... I dont know why My only peice of advice: When the urges go, DO NOT PURGE... I did that and I regret every minute of it now

    Lots of Love,
    Miss Kara

All I can say is I cant wait til I get the chance to again hopefully tomorrow

    Well, to those finding that the urge has disappeared for awhile...I think we all know it is not something to worry about. If there is one thing that we have proven...it is that the urges and desire will return.

    Now if your SO has disappeared for awhile, it just might be worth worrying about...there are no guarantees with that scenario...

    I have been under-dressing every day for years and I would like to cross dress more regularly.

    When I go on vacation, I am usually visiting family. And I am so afraid of the remote possibility that they will walk in on me changing or see a thong peeking out of my pants, that I don't even bring along panties.

    So ironically, my "vacations" can be very difficult.

    I am androgynous 24/7 but there are time I just feel really blah and pull out an old shirt and shorts and frump it up.

    It goes with the flow. Since I don't really have this overwhelming desire to cross dress (being fem-neutral is normal, wearing drab male clothing is cross dressing to me) it's not really something I gauge.


    Ok went back up and read some replies... Not feeling "it" is pretty normal, what takes some getting used to us being comfortable when you don't feel like a woman. It goes with the territory and learning to accepting taking it slow has really helped me not get such horrible anxiety.

    Ladies,
    I believe some of us hit a point where we need a break from dressing. A rest from dressing and time to take a new look at everything. I know I'm more relaxed enfemme and my BP is actually a little lower (have my own cuff) but you can get tired of dressing. When you start again everything will be better. Dressing will be enjoyable again.

    stress can be so negative

    Tina is a high-maintenance girl and she takes my full attention. The result is that when life is stressful, Tina is just not going to happen. I need to take care of issues and then I can enjoy Tina, and there is a lot to enjoy! Right now I just got some new hair and new glasses and I'd LOVE to spend some Tina time with them, but life is just not letting it happen...I'm sure when it does happen it will be just terrific!!!

    hang in there! life will calm down!

    In the past, I could go months without dressing except for some occasional panty wearing here and there. But something "snapped" in me about 18 months ago, maybe it was discovering feminization hypnosis, which I listen to almost nightly. Or maybe it was buying my breastforms, which I've grown "attached" to and feel more natural to me with them then without.

    Anyway, I'm dressing almost every day since then, except for maybe a wig and makeup. Even on days that I'm too tired after work to put on a skirt or dress, I'm wearing a chemise and/or panties to bed, if not a bra and my forms.

    I've bought so many new clothes in that past 18 months and have to use restraint every time a new catalog comes in the mail. I want everything! I'm disappointed and glad at the same time when I find something I really like doesn't come in my size.

    The dressing is really interfering with things I need to do in drab as during my weekend, I'm dressed as often as possible. It has been my most intense period of dressing in my life and I wonder if and when I'm going to taper off.
