?was taken today. This morning, I had been outside doing some yard work. Since the real feel index was over 100? F, I thought it prudent to shower before getting dressed. Since we have no other plans for the day, and rain is likely (96% chance), I had decided I would put on a dress and all the other fem stuff that goes with it. Because we are in the projected path of Debby (it will be a tropical storm by the time it reaches us), my wife decided to go fill her SUV with gas.

When I got out of the shower, I headed to the guest bathroom to get dressed. I had my panties, bra, and forms all on when my wife returned home. I always change clothes in the guest bedroom as that?s where I keep everything. To my surprise, my wife walked to the guest bedroom to tell me something. There is no question I?m in the middle of getting dressed when she came in the room. I believe this may well have been the first time she?s actually seen me sitting on the edge of the bed putting on my thigh highs while still in nothing but under garments. She has seen me put on thigh highs in the family room when I?ve been otherwise completely dressed. But, she just always has steered clear of the guest bedroom when I?ve been in there.

The matter-of-fact way she walked in there to talk was surprising to me. Nonetheless, I was ecstatic that she had no reservations about doing so. I consider this one more small step in her acceptance and possible support sometime in the future.

Wow, That is huge Heather.
Definitely a sign of better acceptance.
Sounds like a great wife you have there.
I hope you get thru the storm safe.

Sounds like you are well on the way toward acceptance, even support. I'd say continue to take it slowly, your approach is obviously working.

I've been married and divorced and I learned one thing for sure, Heather. It's better NOT to guess what your SO's thinking!:straightface:

Because if you're like me you're most likely to be wrong!:doh:

Communicate and ask her. Not us!:thumbsup:

You may be right - but talk to your great wife

I agree with those who are recommending that you talk to your wife.

You might be projecting what you want to think about what she saw. What she really thinks may be different.

You are a lucky girl Heather, I think it is a sign of acceptance but hearing something from her on her thoughts would confirm it.

If not acceptance, perhaps at least acclimation?

Any steps forward are good, but I join others, this is a perfect time to talk. Listen to Char.

One step then another. You need to start talking to her. Your journey could go far.
