This sums up how I cross-dress. I got tired of having an intense desire to do something that ultimately left me feeling bored. I learned that the desire to dress never really ever goes away and to try to repress it can usually make it worse but it doesn't mean you have to give in to it. Rather than focusing on the Fantasy of how dressing is supposed to make you feel concentrated on the memory of the reality of the boredom you feel only after ten minutes. That can usually take the steam out of the desire for me.
