Hi there, I’m Rachel J and this is my first post apart from my introduction.

I’d like to thank all those that welcomed me on the introduction site – it gave me a really warm feeling and I now feel part of a large family. Thanks girls.

I am an occasional CD aged 50+, married with two children and neither they nor my wife know of Rachel. I am pretty certain that if my wife, who I love dearly, were to find out, that would be the end of my marriage of some 25 years! Unfortunately she is not particularly open-minded about such things – hey-ho. And before anyone starts saying I should have told her before getting married, at that time I thought I was ‘over’ the desire to dress, which I had been doing very sporadically since the age of about 15. It was only after a few problems between us that I returned to dressing, and then only on the odd occasion when I was in the house alone. Each session always seemed to be followed by feelings of intense guilt and remorse. Now though, I feel a lot more relaxed when dressed, and have even purchased my own femme underwear and make-up, instead of ‘borrowing’ hers.

My dream would be for my wife to accept my dressing and help and encourage me with it, so that we could go out together as a couple of girls. I am so envious of you girls with supportive SOs (by the way, what does SO stand for?).

Hopefully soon I will be able to post a picture of me as my avatar, and maybe some pictures for the galleries, fingers crossed they turn out alright.

OK, that’s enough for now. I feel so much more at ease, albeit excited also, having so many understanding people around that I can ‘talk’ to, and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your comments and help. Maybe one day I can take the huge step of venturing outside while dressed to meet some of you, who knows.

Hugs and kisses to you all, you are very special people.

Rachel J

Hi. Rachel...good to hear from you...and S.O. is "significant other"...your scenario is so common sadly...but you have to deal with what is..not what might be...for now.!!!...but yes, continue to dream...who knows.?. I have a very supportive wife...but I had no way of knowing it would all go successfully when I came out to her a few years ago. It is a very difficult concept for most S.O.'s to get their heads around after all. Try to be patient and take things slowly...and that's not easy when you feel the kind of things we feel.!!!! I really hope things will go well for you...and you can always rely on the support and help you will find here. Best of luck.
Love Nikki. x

Same here, girl. Wife, 2 kids, +50 and I too thought the marriage would be over if she found out!!! Surprise, no lawyers involved. and though she isnt a big fan or an active supporter, as long as I keep it out of her face, she's a happy girl. And I'm a happy girl!!!! So it may not be as bad as it seems!! Check my past posts for my discovery adventure if you like.

Love Karren

very special people indeed, just like you Rachel.

SO is abbreviated for "Significant Other", appropriate for setting the gender label aside.

I'm new here too, a warm welcome to you and your SO from sunny Arizona.
