Dressed for the first time in months today.

[lisa_e_love]

Hey all,

I posted a lot last summer and in the fall. It's been a while. I've kind of lurked on the forums watching and reading and occasionally posting a reply or two.

But it's been months since I've dressed. 6 months to be exact. I just haven't had a lot of opportunity and then I haven't really been in the mood.

Today something clicked though. I wanted to be in panties and a bra. I wanted the feeling of makeup on my face. And I had an empty house to do it in. It was rushed but I missed it so much and it was good to be Lisa again. I don't know why I stayed away so long. But it was surprising to suddenly need the clothes again.

I guess I've been kind of stressed out lately. I've been branching out and making new friends and spending a lot of time socializing. But I'm a very private person and I needed a way to withdraw from a very socially active couple of weeks. For me, putting on a dress and a wig and doing my face up was the perfect antidote.

I don't fancy that I'm important enough to warrant an "I'm back, welcome me back" thread. I just wanted to type this up in a new thread to say that it's nice to dress again. And it's nice to have some pink back in me.

Hi Lisa - feels so good after a long time without dressing doesn`t it. I have periods when I am unable to dress due to family and work commitments, and the first time dressed after such inactivity is such a great feeling. For me dressing as Julia is such a great relaxation and escape from everday life and commitments.
Its great you have dressed again as I know from my own experience it never goes away does it? and it does feel good !!

All the best - Julia :)

Hi Lisa, Its good to see you again!!!!! Hope you don't stay away as long as you did. And yes, its ALWAYS really nice to get dressed again. Me personally, I can not stay unfemme very long. I have to become feminine every chance I get!!!!

Welcome back Lisa.

Hi Lisa , I have gone for months without dressing in the past , but over the last 4-5 years I have become more comfortable with myself and who I am . With that I find myself crossdressing more and can`t immagine not crossdressing for long periods of time anymore. I love the way I feel when I`m able to be me. Tomara

Lisa, it's nice to see you posting again. And what's all this nonsense, "not being important enough" all about? You're part of out community and everyone is important here :hugs:.

Believe it or not, you were missed. I always thought your posts were interesting & thoughtful and your pictures are very pretty. Don't be a stranger.

Looking forward to seeing more of you.

I have to go long periods without dressing because I don't want my kids to know about it, & there is usually at least one of them at home. I think it makes it more enjoyable when I do get the rare opportunity to be myself. A least it's nice to be able to come here to read & talk about it.

Hey,Lisa, Glad to see you back. It has been about 4 months since I dressed up, and this dry spell is not to my liking. Unfortunately, obligations and other circumstances beyond my control dictate my time to be Erickka. Hope you don't have to go another long spell without Lisa. Enjoy! Erickka

welcome back, Lisa

Hope you had a wonderful time.

Welcome back Lisa. I'm new here, but welcome you just the same. It's been awhile since I have been able to dress, and am I ever getting ANXIOUS! It seems like it's all I can think about for the past week. Good thing though, I dont think it will be much longer!

[vikki2020]

Good to hear from you again, Lisa!I know what you mean about the long "time outs". After a while, time to suit up and get in the game:)

[carolinebrookes]

Welcome back Lisa!

I'm going through a bit of dry spell too at the moment. I just don't have the desire to dress at the moment, so It's good to hear that you suddenly had the urge. :)

[lisa_e_love]

Thanks everybody for the warm welcomes home! I guess we all struggle with this as a part of our identity. It's good to see that other have gone for long spells because of some circumstance or other. Honestly, for a while, I questioned whether or not I really wanted to be a crossdresser. But I can't get away from it. The mystique of makeup and clothes and all things femme is just too engrained into my mind.

So thanks everyone.

I get to dress this evening for the first time since I don't know when, which probably explains why I haven't checked out the forum in a while. Just finished shaving, and am about to make myself over...:)

[Jennifer Giovannetta]

Glad to hear that you were able to dress again Lisa. :love:

Lisa ,welcome back. It’s been about 4-5 months for me, but it seems longer. I have the house to myself for the week and didn’t even try anything on the first day. That night I figured I’ll sleep in panties and my nightie. It’s been 24/7 for the last 5 days and they say drugs are addicting!:battingeyelashes:

hi all-
This is my first post on this forum (not to mention any forum). Anyways, it's been 3 months since I last dressed and I can't wait to dress up again in the near future. Due to circumstances out of my control, I've been a very good girl, but I'm not sure how much longer I can go. The only thing getting me thru this dry spell is the fact that I'm thinking about treating myself to Head To Toe Transformation in July. I can't wait to see how I will look in full female done by a professional. If the pictures turn out nice I would love to post and get some feedback.

I've been dressing since the age of 6 and this is by the longest period I've gone without the joy of being able to dress up.

Love to chat with other ladies and learn more about taking my dressing to the next level.

Please excuse any spelling errors. I'm posting from my iPod.

Hiya Lisa! :wave: I was actually thinking of you not too long ago. I'm glad to see you're back (for now anyway) and got to enjoy some Lisa time! :hugs: Dressing really is an excellent way to relieve stress I've found. xoxo Tammi

Welcome back Lisa, We all missed you. And it is not a matter of whether you want to be a crossdresser or not; Honey, you are! It will not go away. You can deny it, but it will still be there! Just embrace it and enjoy it. I can not dress away from the house, but I always wear panties and pantyhose, even at work. I find that underdressing as much as possible helps until you can dress in full again. Try that and see if it helps.:2c:

Hugs:hugs:

Welcome back Lisa. It is so nice to know you are back in the game again. I can't imagine myself going as long as you did without dressing. My longest stretch believe it or not was four years! This was when I was in the military and you can imagine how hard it is to dress when you have no place to do it and no place to store clothing. Those four years were extremely frustrating and depressing for me. I had to keep asking myself what was I thinking when I volunteered to put myself into this situation. I knew what the answer was it was that I wanted to stop being a cd and the time I was going to be in the military would 'cure' me of this bad habit. I soon discovered that this was not going to happen and realized I had no control over how I felt about being a cd. I came to the conclusion that this is a part of me that is never going to go away and I have learned to embrace this part of me and would not want to change even if I could. Now I dress every day would not even think of depriving myself of the most enjoyable part of my life.
