lingerie shopping on anniversary

[Olivia]

Earlier this week, my wife came home from work and said that since our anniversary (28 years) fell on a saturday this year, why don't we drive to Austin and then you can go by Tabu lingerie? I was floored! She was doing the suggesting? Wow, I sat there sort of stunned and she said that she would be glad to go in with me or I could drop her somewhere and shop alone. This is a huge step and comes after many recent, emotional conversations about crossdressing. I know it was a big step for her to take and I appreciate it too. I think that I'd like her to go with me; though it's no big deal really either way. I've shopped plenty for lingerie on my own but the breakthrough here is her attitude change. btw. Tabu lingerie in Austin is supposed to be a tg-friendly shop. I'll try to post a report from my "field trip". Sorry for rattling on but I just had to share the good news with some people who can understand. Olivia

That's great Olivia!

And by all means do ask her to join you. Sometimes it can be fun when one's wife goes along too.

[Ashleigh]

Definately invite her. The more you two do together, the closer you get to each other. My wife and I do everything together and always have for the last 27 1/2 years.

Olivia,

Great to hear that you will get the chance to shop with your wife. I have been shopping with my wife on several occasions for panties and nighties and I just love it. We have not yet gone for the full outfit type of thing due in part to the fact that she has never seen me dressed and she is not sure that she is ready for that step just yet. But she has seen me in nighties, panties, and cami sets and has always liked them on me.

You should deffinately ask her to join you. Maybe the two of you can pick out something for the both of you. My wife and I have a couple matching cami sets and more than a few pairs of matching panties that we wear both at the same time. Something like that could make the acceptance a little easier for her if you try doing something small that brings her into your other side without being to over powering all at once.

good luck and let us know how it goes.

Ain't it cool? I'm still buzzed about it and it's still two weeks away, lol. Thanks for all the kind words and advice girls. I am always touched by so many sincerely nice people making me feel at home and welcome here. I will definetely report back after the trip. Hmmm, what to buy, what to buy? I'm sure I'll think of somethin'...Olivia

Danielle, isn't that the truth?! I've often fantasized about being locked in a department store all night, with all that lingerie to try on-whoowhee!!! O

[LindaTS]

Olivia, you're a very lucky woman to have something like that happen to you. I buy a few things when in drab and my wife is with me, mainly cosmetics. But it's been a very long time since she was willing to shop for clothes, etc. with me. Oh well, this is my reason tor for going out enfemme so I guess it's a good thing too. Be sure to buy something special and have a good time.

[ChristineRenee]

That is great Olivia. You two should go shopping together and make a day of it...have lunch, etc. Sometimes the little breakthroughs have a way of leading toward greater understanding and acceptance.

Be sure you follow up with this now and tell how truly special she is and what she means to you. And get her a really nice anniversary present. She has made an effort here and will be anticipating, and gauging just how you respond back to it. Make sure she knows just how loved she is by you.;) :)


Love,
Christine

Go for it, Olivia! My wife was a bit less than enthusiastic about me crossdressing until one day, out of the blue, she held a negligee up against me in a crowded store and said she thought it suited me. I was so taken aback that I forgot to be embarrassed. Nobody else existed at that moment. We now do all shopping for my female clothing together and I have changed from being a bored husband getting dragged around the shops to someone who is excited at examining and selecting ladies lingerie for us both. I consider myself lucky to have found this excitement after 40 years of marriage.

go girls! My gf's favourite thing with Wenda is shopping. I think she gets a bit of charge out of seeing her BF going into the change room with a couple of dresses. The couple that shops together... just appreciate it. she is really trying. don't forget to reciprocate. wenda.
