Fun night at the casino...weird response from wife...

[Kelli Lovelace]

So my wife was out of town this weekend and I took the opportunity to let Kelli out of her box. My wife is totally okay with dressing as Kelli and is very awesome about! The only thing she doesn't like is for me to go outside our home as Kelli. I have expressed a desire to, but she isn't comfortable with it...yet. So I get fully dressed, do my make up (which I rarely do lately) and put on my wig. After the transformation is complete I looked in the mirror and was very pleased with how it all turned out....so I decided that I needed to go out. We leave near and Indian casino so I thought that that would be a safe place to go.

I took $20 and headed out. I pulled up to the casino, parked my jeep, and walked in with confidence. I got a few stares as I walked in but they weren't the "bad" kind, it kind of felt like people were checking me out! I sat down at a penny slot and started playing. As always, I would win a couple dollars and the loose some and it kept go back and forth...at first I didn't like the attention when the machine would make a "winning" noise but I quickly got over it. And then all of a sudden, bam! I hit some kinda jackpot! I won $600! It was so excited about the winnings I forgot about others "reading" me! One of the workers came over and had me fill out some paper work, looked at my male id, and called me maam the whole time...there was a little twinkle in her eye and a grin on her face when she saw my id. After the paper work was filled out she looked at me and said, "you look great." I was more excited about the comment than the win!

So I take my new $$$ home and sit around the house dressed for a while. My returned home two days later and I told her about my winnings. I did not tell her I went as Kelli...for reasons stated above. All she said was, "well maybe you should go to the casino as Kelli more often." What? How'd she know? Oh well, she wasn't mad...as a matter of fact she never even seemed irritated. So it was a win, win, win weekend!

Hi Kelli

Isn’t it great when their response is positive, especially when we are expecting a negative response? Can’t explain how she knew you went as Kelli, maybe just women’s intuition, or maybe a neighbor clued her in, whatever the reason you came out a winner. Going to put some of your winnings toward Kelli’s wardrobe? Maybe your Wife would like to go shopping with Kelli and you can both get some nice clothes, and the two of you can go to the casino for some fun girl time.

Wives always know!! I always loose $$ enfemme and win when not!! Maybe someone's trying to tell me something? Lol.

Great story, especially about the affirmation you received from the casino staff. I love it! Just be careful stepping over boundaries you've agreed upon with your wife. I've let my wife lead on everything and it has worked out beyond my wildest dreams.

[Loveday]

Sounds like a good hot streak to me, the winnings, the compliment, the wife not being angry. Congradulations !!!

[Cynthia Anne]

Your winnings are great! But going against your wifes wishes make you a loser! You owe her an apolgy! Let her know that you are sorry!

I never said that she won't let me go out dressed, I just said she doesn't like it when I do. She has never forbid me from doing anything...so I didn't cross any lines. But thanks for calling me a loser anyway.

That's so great Kelli, your initiative, confidence, the fun, the positive attention, the staff the $$$$$, and esp your wife's reaction & support.

NE casino??

[Mary Morgan]

What a great story, and if I were you, I'd go more often dressed as you like. Sounds as though you might have had on a lucky charm. And who knows, maybe one day your wife will want to tag a ong.

"well maybe you should go to the casino as Kelli more often." What? How'd she know?

Forgive me for being the detective type.... but yeah... how DID she know?

Great story though and congrats on winning! That's always a good thing

Kelli -- Good for you. Dressing, going out, and making a little money to boot. Wives do know. Or, if they don't, they kind of let you hang yourself. Going to my local casino dressed is on my to-do list. With my luck I would hit a big jackpot and get my pic in the paper, etc. I just know it's going to happen that way because my guy self has never won anything.

[Nicole Erin]

So next time if you go as a male and lose too much money, you will need to apologize for going as a guy. :D

Now with the 600, resist the temptation to give it all back to the casino. No, instead, give a good amount of it to your favorite clothing shop. Here is a sound budget -

$150 to fill that jeep, gas ain't cheap and Jeeps take a lot
$100 to show the ol lady a good night on the town. She sounds like a cool wife ya know :)
$300 for "Kelli", ya know, shoes, purse, clothes, Sephora... (At Sephora, pick up a few things for the wife too)
$50 to contribute to PBS so they can continue to broadcast stuff that no one watches but is made possible by the contributions of viewers like you.

Yeah man, this sounds like a sound plan to enjoy $600.

[DaphneATX]

hehe excellent story ... im still struggling to find the confidence to go out in public like that

I'm sorry, but from what you said I was under the same impression. Glad to hear that it wasn't that way.

Great fun tale of a Night out alone. Casinos are one of the safest places a CD can go and have fun. Lots of security, people are in their own little zone so most pay no attention to you and the casino welcomes all. All the ones close to me even have a unisex bathroom for handicapped people who might need help from their SO making it easy when nature calls. I just wish they all had more mirrors so I could see myself more often but it is satisfying to watch my own painted nails hitting the slot machine buttons while wearing all my rings. Wife and I go all the time and sometimes joke about what if Kendra won big enought to have her photo taken holding a large check to be displayed by them on the giant lighted billboard outside.

Hmmm I think if the win was massive enough,you may find that CDing wouldn't be an issue anymore to anyone,Money has a way of enlightening folk :)

LOL. Don't you know this yet? We have eyes at the back of our heads and we can see through walls. :D

Kelli,

You were busted. You have nothing to loose if you ask her how she knew. When you find out, we all want to know :)

I love stories with a happy ending////endings! Congratulations on the attendants comment!! Oh, and your winnings too lol

[Jenny Doolittle]

Sounds like Life is a win win for you. Thats awesome.

[Kelli Lovelace]

Thanks for all you wonderful comments...I honestly think that she just assumed that I did. She knew that I was dressing up that night, she knows that I have gone out a couple of times as Kelli (like I said, she doesn't like it but has never told me no) and she probably just put the two together.

I really want to clarify a few things. As it seems that My original post was a bit unclear. We've been married for 12 years, I told her about my desire to CD before we got married. She didn't understand or know the fullness of my desires. Over the past 12 years I have been 100% open and honest with her. She's taken awhile to come to terms with it. At first she didn't like but "suffered" through it. And as I opened up more and more and became more transparent and vulnerable the more accepting she became. Now she is completely accepting. She buys things for Kelli regularly, she tells me that she wants me to wear things from time to time and she is planning a trip for our anniversary where she already told me I'm not allowed to bring and male underwear only panties and bras! I think the reason she isn't comfortable with me going out ad Kelli in our town is because she fears someone will recognize me and our "secret" will be out...which I am not ready for.

[boardpuppy]

I love the story....you are so lucky to have skated the whole night and you should have been given roses at every step, you were blessed. Oh please let us know when you go shopping.

[Tina B.]

Sounds like a fun weekend all the way around! As far as crossing lines, I'm a grown up, I don't ask permission, and I don't sneak. My wife doesn't always think about what I want when she does things, why should I have to ask to do a thing like go out by myself, to do something absolutely legal, I'm still a guy, and I've got a pair. $600.00 complement from casino staff, and a wife pleased with the winnings, and not angry about the outing, doesn't sound like a loser to me, as Charlie Sheen would say "WINNING"!

Nice! Congrats! You have good luck enfemme! Definitely go out more often!!

That's pretty much where my wife is at. :)

Cool story! Oh how I would love to have $600 to spend on clothes! Or even $300, since I would definitely split it with my wife. :)

[PretzelGirl]

LOL. Don't you know this yet? We have eyes at the back of our heads and we can see through walls. :D

And over great distances it appears!

[Chickhe]

It was the smile from ear to ear that gave you away!
