In my earlier post today "met her in a bar" I talked about telling a complete stranger (GG) that I met in the bar last night that I was a crossdresser. I want to share some other experiences that I have had to help those of you who are nervous, shy, scared, etc. This applies to shopping, telling your wife, girlfriend, parents, etc.
I have been dressing for 30 years, since I was 10, didnt get into the makeup, etc until a few years back. We all have our own level, which is totally irrelevant.
I have had many good, positive fun experiences, and well tell a few. I was once in Dallas and saw a pair of shoes in a mall, went in the store and took a look, they were on sale for $7.00, what a steal. Asked the SA for a pair in size 10, she got them and a the cash register she asked me if I wanted to try them on, I turned beet red, and said no. Took a look around the store and decided I wasnt going to try them on right in the middle of the store (which i have done since), but then said, well, if we can go to the back by the fitting room or something, sure, i would like to try them on. She took me to the break room in the back of the store. I was wearing hose under my dress pants, no socks and slip on shoes. They were 5" heels with a buckle, put them on and she said she wished she could get her hubby to dress, she digged it! Thought about trying to pick her up then and there... point being, the SA's have seen it before, some wont like it, but hey, they wont remember you...all they want is your money. Go to Walmart, the mall, MAC counter, makeup counter at the local drug store, etc. If they look cool, dont be shy.
The girl in the bar was not the first GG that I have confessed to about being a CD, dated one gal for a long time after I told her the first night we met. Just be cool about it, and dont force it, if they are cold to it drop it, change the subject, If they like it dont take it to far at first...just be honest. People like honest people.
Everyone has their own quirk, and most people have a fetish, what ever it is, might not be extreme, but may be more extreme than crossdressing. Told one girl that I was a CD, then asked her about her fetish......wont go into it, but it shocked me! And I thought that was impossible.
Last story, I was in SF, at a Ross Dress for Less right across the street from the Holiday Inn I was staying at. It was real close to closing time. On my way out of the hotel I noticed a GG setting in the lobby, she was wearing a tight short skirt, black hose and knee high boots with high heels. Anyway, was in the store, looking at dresses and look up and she is right beside me. She asked if I was shopping for my wife, said no. Girlfriend? no. Hmm she says, looking for you and I say yes and ask her how she thought the dress I was looking at would look on me. To make a long story short, we each bought some dresses, had dinner together, tried our clothes on together...then she got dolled up, me in drab with hose on, went across the street to the gay bar and watched the drag show, came back, she did my makeup and went from there. Had incredible "fun" if you know what I mean.
Anyway, dont be shy or scared, shop someplace where people dont know you. I have bought lots of womens things in many places, only had one time where the SA was cold about it, and I just left laughing to myself
Merry Xmas, hope you get that new pair of heels you want!
