No, darlings, not that kind of “goodbye” But I did get your attention.
About 3 weeks ago I helped my wife clear out her dresser drawers of the winter clothing, to be replaced with some nice summer tops and pants, ( not my size :sad:) … but I was the one who bought all of them. (The deal is,… one for one, if I get something new then she gets something also. … works for me)
While we were in the middle of doing this she commented that the closet was full of my stuff and that I had taken it over and it was getting to be a bit much.
Keeping two wardrobes of items causes things to grow. Over the weekend I decided to “bite the bullet” and get rid of some things. (In case you’re wondering, all of it got carefully bagged and delivered to the Salvation Army)
What I ended up doing was getting rid of much of my “boy” clothes. Trousers that were now too big in the waist for me, shirts that were also too large, and some sport jackets that I haven’t worn in the last 6 years. I kept a few shirts that were still serviceable, but now I no longer have any “guy” trousers.
As I was putting the bag into the “bin” I had a really strange feeling of “Crossing The Rubicon” I’ve always kinda known that I don’t want to go back to wearing male stuff, but now I “made the commitment” and in a rather odd way it felt like I was saying goodbye forever to an old friend.
Years ago I made the full transition from “Y” fronts to panties and that didn’t bother me much, but this step seemed to be a bit more drastic.
I’m no where close to thinking about a “physical” change but this “attire” change felt like a large step, at least, to me it did.
