Chicken came home to roost

[Emily Ann Brown]

Some have already heard that my wife found some things yesterday and I made a clean breast (no pun intended) of the situation. I am surviving and we are still in the same home. I appreciate all the IMs of concern. I will keep current info on my page http://360.yahoo.com/ltbemily If your spouse doesn't know do it today.....shock and suspense is not a pretty thing.

As I said earlier, You are in our thoughts, and we are here for you if you need us.

First I have heard of it I wish you all the best.

[Julie York]

Yeah, good luck.

Emily,

I really hate people that say "I told you so", and you probably do too, but.... Back in October many of us recommended you come clean with your wife then. Those who have joined recently that are still hiding their crossdressing from their wives might want to look at some of the posts for a little history under the thread : http://www.crossdressers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16533

Emily, I do wish you the best in dealing with this and you will be in my prayers. If there is anything I can do to help out, let me know.

You and your wife will both be in my prayers. Good luck to both of you. Hugs, Tammi

Hey Emily, hold on girl! I'm wishing the best for you sister, I hope (and feel) that the situation will turn out for the best. I think I remember that you've been married to her a long time and by now, you two have shared a lot of "water under the bridge". That means a lot Emily. A relationship like that is very strong and can survive this and much worse too, I might add. Please feel free to drop me a line if you want. I'm a good listener as well as a big talker,lol! Good luck dear; I'm betting this turns out ok for you both. Olivia

Been there. Done that. It sucks. My thoughts are with you.

[Amanda T]

Good luck! My wife has known for years, but we live in a "don't ask don't tell" world. I dislike it, but is better than the alternatives.:o

I am sorry emmie,Im sure the confronting was hard enough about the bra and such let alone telling her it was yours truely sorry girl friend xxxx

[Raychel]

Emily, You did a very difficult a good thing. Coming right out and telling her that the items were yours was the best thing that you could do. I have had that confrontation many years ago, and in a moment of panic I made up a story that they were an old girl friends. That did not go well at all. Now almost 15 years later I have told my wife everything. She still does not like it, but I think that it was easier and better telling her the truth.

Now the panic is off on my part. I still do not dress around her, but if she were to unexpectedly come home, she would not be happy. But it would not be the end of the world.

So educate her and keep the communications open. With luck she will at least tolerate it, so you both can live a happy life together. :thumbsup: :clap:

Emily, I read todays blog addition. I'm sorry to hear that what she has read about has not been of help.

Have you checked what web sites she has been visiting?

Have you asked her to come online to talk to ohter GGs in this forum? If you don't want her to see this forum, there is another at http://crossdressers-forum.com/forums/index.php with section set up for SO's.

Maybe the following two sites will help her make a more informed decision:

Emily I've only just read your thread, I don't know all the facts but I do know some of the feelings that you must be going through, I sincerely hope that everything works out for you, good luck Girl.

Linda.

[Miss Lulu]

Surviving and both still in the same home? Good! It's a start!

Wish you the best of luck.

[Marlena Dahlstrom]

Oh Emily, I'm sorry for the both of you. At least this time you had the courage to come clean.

Before either of you do anything rash, just remember you're still both in shock. As others have said, keep talking and help her learn more about it.
