Meeting a lady tomorrow for cofee (need advice!!!)

[PrettyFlowingGown]

I think i've done wrong thing, and something i'd never dream of doing. Meeting a girl for a cofee, thats involved through work. A guy at work told me 2 weeks ago, his sisters lonely, 37 and is looking for a guy. I've been talking to her on facebook and she seems really nice, but the prob is, is that if something works out between us shes going to find out about my dressing, and that she could say or leak info to her brother which could spread through work. i've always told myself, if i ever get involved with a girl, not to get one involved through work or a relative of a work collegue.
another thing is, i have'nt been with a female sexually in about 7 years. i was deeply hurt by a girl in 2004, and in the last few years i've only been with (sexually) a cuppla guys and cd's. I'm very nervous about this whole situation, and whether i'm doing right or wrong thing. any advice here?

It's just having coffee together, right? Enjoy yourself my friend.:)

[Rogina B]

Having a coffee or a drink together is just that. If you truly enjoyed the time then say so,if not,say nothing.It takes time to decide on whether a relationship is worth starting,and that applies to both parties...

[cdsherriejo]

Like Kate said, it's just coffee. Enjoy it, and see where it goes. You can worry about all that other stuff as it happens. NONE of it will happen tomorrow. Let us know how it goes? :-)

[Jennifer Giovannetta]

Just have fun. Its only coffee. If and when the time comes then worry about it. But for now, just have fun!

[Sandra1746]

It is only coffee, as many have already noted, so unless you are considering something else don't get too "wound up" by this meeting. If things develop over time then you may have some decisions to make but for now, enjoy the coffee.

Hugs,

Relax, you don't have to figure out the names of your 2.4 kids on the first meeting. Go for coffee and enjoy yourself, see where it could go to from there. Life is about crossing one bridge at a time, stop worrying about something so far away it ruins the moment before you.

[Marguarite]

Like everyone's said it's just coffee. The best advice I'l give you though, is to just be a good listener. There are a lot of things to learn by directing the conversation, but letting her do most of the talking. It's also important to find how compatable she may before you. Doing wrong is not taking every chance for happiness, GOOD LUCK, HUN

[Raychel]

Go, Relax and have fun, Just like everyone said, If something connects, You will know when the time is right and when it is safe to tell her.

[Caroline C]

I feel the same as you do. Meeting someone through work and if it goes bad the secret is out. Go for coffee but take it slow. During a conversation bring up some news you heard about whatever and CD'ing and judge her reaction. I didn't meet my last GF through work but she would say I can't wait to see you in this. Unfortunately there's more to a relationship than just clothes and the bedroom but you got to try.

OK, not a great example ,don't want to scare you. But she is still a friend and never told the secret.

[YorkshireRose]

Yep a resounding response for you here. Enjoy the coffee, relax and just enjoy each others company. If you go in there worrying it is not going to be the enjoyable encounter it should be and she will pick up on it. have fun!

[AllieSF]

Great advice so far. Mine is, don't wear a flowing gown! Good luck and have fun.

[MsJanessa]

just enjoy the date and the coffee---if things get more serious, that would be the time to tell her---you shouldn't do it on the first date

[Erica Marie]

I guess all I can do is repeat what all the other girls said. Its just coffee between friends. Go out, have fun and make the best of it. If nothing else maybe one day you two will be best of friends even if it doesnt turn into a relationship. Trust me you can never have enough friends. Take it slow. Best wishes and have fun.

[LadyPilot]

Enjoy the meeting and coffee. If it is meant to be it is meant to be. You deserve to be happy and you have the full control of your happiness. You know the ole saying "don't keep your honey where you make your money", if this is a concern then you have already drawn conclusions. Enjoy the moment! LP

[docrobbysherry]

Try to pretend you're just meeting a friend for coffee! If you're lucky, that's what she may become.

Worrying about telling her on the alter that u dress is NOT realistic or healthy! Go meet her, and be in the minute while you're there. Stop any and all thots about your CDing before they start!

U deserve a real life, PFL! Not just a secret one!

[rachel_rachel]

Having a drink with another woman doesn't always lead to sex.... I have met the most wonderful lady over facebook myself.. We talk all the time, yet i'm a happily married man with 4 children (one of whom is 8 weeks old) She lives about 2 hours away so it's not like we'd sneak around and she has 5 kids herself, (her eldest being 18) and is a single mother. I also consider this lady to be my best friend.

As i said, just because she has (this) and you have (that) doesn't mean you can't have friends of the opposite sex.

[SandraInHose]

As others have said, just relax. You've got that cart WAY ahead of the horse!

I know whereof I speak. I do the same thing myself...always pondering the what-if's until I lay awake at night re-thinking them. And it's amazing how few of those scenarios ever get close to what I imagine.

Save your nerves, and enjoy it for what it is...coffee and conversation. But keep us posted with all the details! LOL

[Beverley Sims]

Go for it you are not likely to confide in her until you establish a partnership.
Then go slowly, any rumors that come up later will remain rumors

[Anita_2]

Well, it's just coffee. Enjoy it, and see where it goes. Later you must go step by step and you can see reaction after every step if it is bad reaction you can stop. From my expirience best is to tell her first that you like stockings and tights with explanation that it is your women fetish if she will accept it - rest is matter oftime.

[PrettyFlowingGown]

Thankyou all. apreciate it very much. just hope she dont question my shaven legs. lol

[Angela Campbell]

Why would she see your legs? You are going to meet for coffee! A real relationship doesn't start with a cup and a jump into bed. You need to make friends first and keep intimate things private until you know each other better and that takes time.

[RachelDenise]

Hope that both the coffee and company is good. That's what I'd do.

[kimdl93]

Get to know her well, first, before you consider telling her anything. Then, if the relationship appears to have some possibilities, you will need to be honest. Leading up to that,make it a habit of being open to her thoughts and free with sharing other personal things, even if they are slightly embarrassing.

Of course, there's a possible risk but life about understanding and managing risk, not avoiding it.

[Genifer Teal]

Work is not the only place to meet women. Enjoy the coffee and company. In the future it is probably best not to have a connection back to work. It is good that if things go well and a relationship ensues, you would want to tell her all about yourself. Only you know what impact that might have if work found out. How important is your job to you?

[Raychel]

Who knows, maybe she will be turned on by shaven legs, Like I said, Relax and enjoy your time out.

[HannahF6]

Relax, the probability of this coming to anything is so small, just enjoy some female company.

Slow down....
It's coffee, not picking out your wedding invitations. You don't even know if you will want lunch yet let alone spilling your heart out about your dressing.

[MarcyRex]

What a lovely opportunity to interact with another person as you both seek compatibility. It like sending out your first resume. A chance to see what works, refine your ability to read body language in a non-competitive positive setting, get feedback in a non-work location. It is a coffee date. Enjoy.

[Jenniferathome]

Interesting dilemma. I think you have moved too far down the relationship curve in your head. How about meet and see if you like each other enough to have a second date. Cross dressing is not what you are, it is just a part of you. When you get to the "we're getting serious" stage, you can decide to tell. If she is in to you, she'll keep it secret.

Yes, this is a way to get used to the idea of dating again. I'm in a similar boat of being single for 7 years and getting deeper into crossdressing, which kind of interferes with dating. I also have trust issues, lack of finances and other excuses. Fear of being outed is increasing with the size of my wardrobe :)

Anyway, think of it as practicing your dating skills.

[Rachel Morley]

I think you are sensible to think of what "might happen" if things were to end up at the ultimate stage .. i.e you end up in a relationship with this woman and it somehow leads to you being outed at work .... BUT .... while I do think it's sensible to think logically about this possible end game scenario, I do think it's way, way too early to be worrying about it! At this stage of the game it's too early to know anything ... including whether you're doing right or wrong thing by just having coffee. I agree with the others, it's just coffee at this point ... lets not put 2 & 2 together and come up with 5.

[deebra]

Don't Go, find someone away from work. Protect yourself and don't create a stressful situation that could really hurt you, there are millions of other women, remember CDing won't go away and it's a life time thing that most women don't approve of.

[PrettyFlowingGown]

its coming along nicely. seeing her again today. i'm kinda dropping hints in short doses. said i wanted to be a dress designer and said i shave my legs/body and she loves men that shave.

[Angela Campbell]

Wow....taking a lot of chances huh?

[AmyGaleRT]

Ooh, this sounds promising! But keep up the pianissimo approach. You don't want to scare her off too easily, yet you don't want to wind up in a relationship with someone that isn't accepting. Other than that...you go, girl! :)

My best friend in college was the girl that I got lined up with as a blind date. Friendship replaced romance as we got to know each other better. I became her confidant and she mine. We were more like brother and sister and did things that siblings do when there is great respect and love. She got married and so did I about the same time and as it should be so did our friendship. Not all relationships end up in matrimony or cohabitation. If you don't like the situation your getting in you better change it or live with the consequences. Who knows maybe the consequences might turn out surprisingly well.

[Rachel Morley]

i'm kinda dropping hints in short doses. said i wanted to be a dress designer and said i shave my legs/body and she loves men that shave. Interesting! .... I told previous potential girlfriends that I had my whole body waxed because I liked the "smooth tanned fitness look" ... to be fair, I was more muscular then so it was partly true, but a lot of it was to feminize myself too. Some of them were ok with it but others were not cool about me going to a beauty salon to get my legs waxed. :(

Conference someone as a result of function of course, if that should go awful the secret is out with friends. Go for espresso nevertheless take it slow-moving. Throughout a conversation mention several information a person found out about whatever as well as CD as well as determine the girl problem. My spouse and i decided not to meet my last GF as a result of function nevertheless she would claim I cannot delay to view a person in this particular. Regrettably there may be additional to your marriage than just clothes and also the room nevertheless, you reached try out.
