Hi I have a partner who I love dearly, however she would not except my crossdressing she wouldn't even except me dressing whilst she was out. So I took your advise and wrote my feelings down and opened up fully in the hope she would at least talk about it to me. This evening we sat down and talked openly for the first time and she has now at least excepted me having my dressing up clothes in th house, and to dress whilst she is out. One step forward thank you all for your thoughts and advice. Maisie x

The door is slightly open. Great. Be patient. Continue talking. Be honest. Be patient. Proceed slowly. Best.

Smart move - keep talking and go slowly (if you know your end point share it and don't make it a moving target). Welcome to the forum.

Hi Maisie, I have the same issue and I’m in a similar position, my wife while aware is willing to take a I don’t want to see it, I don’t want to know about it, I don’t want to see or talk about being dressed stance, at the moment all I have is a pair of boots and a fur, I’m not in the position to tell her I want to outfit myself properly as getting to this point has been hard enough, so I feel the journey you’ve been on, I feel like I?ve made a small step forward too, but I don’t know how or when I’ll be able to take the next one.

Maisie, good for you starting the conversation. Only you can tell when your partner is approachable, so pay attention. If you want to go further, talk with her first. The two of you can reach agreements as to what you want and what she is willing to accept. And, over time those agreements can be built upon.

Maisie, I'm glad that your discussion went well. Take it slow.

Hi all, well had my first dress up which was so great as it's been over ten years, I wonder now why I ever purged my things and stopped. My partner hasn't asked but I think she feels there is a difference in my da meaner and we seem more together without the tension. Thanks for all the advise x

Hi Goos luck from me too .Dont push her take time who knows we are here for you

[Glenda58]

I did the same thing. Only dressing when she was away.

I could only repeat the advice of others, I've made the same mistake in the past wanting to open the flood gates wide open just to have them shut again. Test the waters and know when to jump in but take it slow.

Maisie,
Glad your communication was well received. It's a start.
Keep talking and sharing. It took lots of that and some time for my wife to become comfortable with my dressing and now 20 years later it's not even a thing anymore.
