:c9: On cloud nine :c9:

I just have to tell everyone:c9: Yesterday my wife took me shopping for the first time. It was an incredible day. We didn't get home until after 9 pm. I have to be married to the most understanding gg in the world. She has made every attemp in the last week to understand this aspect of my life. She is the queen of googling and has researched all week. It was her idea to take the day for ourselves and shop, shop, shop. Hit the outlet malls and had a ball. I got to wear panties, womans slacks, earrings & knee highs all day in public. While not "being out" it certainly was close. I have always hated shopping but yesterday was exhilirating!!
Stopped at the Bali, Legg's store got panties and bras. Went to Dress Barn Woman's and got a nice sun dress,(wife says she is going back to get her own) and another dress. several blouses. Lane bryant got a pair of slacks that I have actually been looking for for a while since I am a nurse and need them for work and can't stand scrub pants. Got some looks there while she was measuring them up against me. Jewelry was frustrating since I am 6'2" and 250. We were trying to find an ankle braclet and we found one that works great as a wrist bracelet. Clip-on earrings are another matter, so hard to find. That is no where near as frustrating to find shoes. I have figured out that I am going to have to order them on line. There is NO shop out there that sells 16 woman's.
Well, this got rather long. Just wanted everyone to know what a great day I had, had to tell someone.
I will try to post some pics when I figure that part out.

Hi Dawn, congratulations on a super day. I think your SO should receive a nice bouquet of flowers from a grateful Dawn. :love:

There's no greater bonding experience than shopping with the wife/SO. Glad you had a good time. As a show of gratitude and appreciation always buy your wife something during the shopping trip be it make up, purse, jewelry, etc. Jocelyn

:D Happy for you! I had to curtail shopping with my GF because it was beginning to threaten the health of my credit card.:eek: :eek: Last fall we went to a big box 'grocery store' that sells furniture, lingerie, clothing, etc, etc. They were blowing out a pile of inventory, and had it outside. She found about 6 pairs of thongs in my size and a couple of bras, some for under a dollar each. We took out booty inside, bought the actual groceries that we had come for, and she said, "I love it when those other ladies think, "Oh, isn't that nice, her man is with her shopping for lingerie, and they don't know that I am shopping for Wenda!!" I can relate. We are truly blessed, my friend. :love:

She also got two pair of shoes and two tops. Guess I was so excited I forgot to mention that. lol

What an awesome day....a tip that I do for Sher for clip earrings.......go to any craft store like Michaels or Pat Catans....in the jewlery making section...they have bags of clips...silver or gold...then you can go anywhere and get earrings.....and take off the hook...and put on the clip....that way you can wear all the latest styles.

Congratulations on your day out shopping, sounds like you had a lot of fun together. It's wonderful that you have such an understanding, helpful, and supportive wife. I wish I was as lucky.
Take her out, say thankyou, she's a rare lady!

From your post it sounds lilke she has not known about your CD'ing for all that long, so don't forget to leave a little breathing room for her and her guy.
It is real easy to get carried away, when you first come out to your SO, and you don't want her to get to feeling that it is all overwelming.
you are one of the lucky ones, let her know you know just how lucky you are to have her.

I remember the first time I went shopping with my wife, I was on cloud 9 for days!
