Hi, I'm curious to find out the relationship status of the CD's here. As for myself, I'm single, have been for years, and wonder if I'll ever find a suitable mate (i.e. one that can put up with my femininity)

I guess you don't get over to our section much? :raisedeyebrow:

Tempted to retaliate for all our polls that get messed up by people who don't bother to read - especially the two recent ones (take a glance in the FtM section).

But I'll behave. I may be a pirate, but I'm not stooping to that level. :p

Single. Came out to my latest girlfriend of 2 years who i thought may be accepting of it. But to my surprise she called me a freak and left me.

Thanks Goofus for the support. very much appreciated.

I am single and have been since 2004, I have no plans or desire to become intimate with a female(or male even though I am straight) for a long long time. I enjoy being alone and I don't like having a hindrance or a burden in front of me. I know that there are some decent single women out there around my age but I don't feel like getting hurt again.

Just been thrown out of a 5 year reletionship with my wife of 1 year (anniversary would have been monday 11th) She could not face the fact she actualy married a cross dresser althow the first time she found out was 5 years ago. I think she thought it was "just one of those silly phases".:sad: Instead I was relocated from lover and husband to flatmate and bed buddy when she feels like it. (does that still count as a relationship?)

Good question! I would put that in the "steady girlfriend" category.
Actually, now that I think of it, I would have liked to have had "Married, accepting wife" or "Married, unaccepting wife" instead of just "Married", but I guess it's too late for that? Mods?

My last and only sexual relationship ended nearly 11 years ago. I found sex boring right from the get-go (I have some pretty amusing stories about it though!). I wasnt bothered in relationships before that time and have had no interest in one since. I also consider that I am too immature for commitment and have a huge self-esteem issue to contend with. I'm a wimp, basically!

So I always say that I am a happy basta...batchelor ;)

Hi Goofus, I am one of the very lucky ones , I am sitting here writing to you dressed as a women an my GG is here too, reading the paper. I pretty much can dress when ever I want she even prefers me as her girl friend. The only coment I got from her this morning was to be carefull with a neckles I put on. We are the same size in cloths 16/14 an shoes 10 1/2 an 11. I have a very nice tank top with my 36 C breast ,a short black skirt,and my baby doll punps 3 inch . I have a short alburn wig that is the same as her hair my nails are painted a nice dark red, as we love to go out together as sisters. We are going to P Town on the 20 for 4 days an I will be a women 24/7 for the whole time . There are women out there that want she /males not men that want to become a women , so good luck an the best advice I can give you is that be up front with all the women you meet . :D

Married to a wonderful and supportive lady for more than 30 years. She has no illusions and neither do I; I am heterosexual and monogamous. I would wish for more CD/TV people to be blessed with someone like her.

Have been badly married once for 14 yrs then happily divorced ; at the moment I'm in couple for more than 5 yrs. I chose the : "with a steady girlfriend". As for me, it's more or less equivalent to be a "second marriage", that is to be married.

I'm single, never married, and have no kids.
I live on my own and enjoy doing what I want whenever I want.
Not too long ago, I came out to my neighbors and he and his wife were very open and accepting.
When they see me when I'm dressed, they're always complimenting me and I enjoy chatting with them.
I do hope to meet an accepting GG someday. :daydreaming:

Hugs!

I had a girlfriend for almost 3 years that kind of accepted it. She would help me shop, but never wanted to see me dressed. It worked for a while, and our break up had nothing to do with it. So now I'm single for little over a month now.

I've been married to the same wonderful woman for 35 years. I only recently told her of my crossdressing, and she has really embraced it. She has given me clothes and helped me shop for shoes. I really like 5 inch stilettoes, and now I'm getting her to come around and try some. We enjoy dressing together at home, and she helps me with my makeup. We are having a lot of fun, and our relationship has grown stonger than ever. I only wish I'd come out to her sooner.

KarenSusan
08-09-2008, 09:52 AM
I've never been close to being married. I think sometimes the reason is that, subconsciously, I knew that sooner or later I would have to tell her that I am CD/TG and I couldn't face the chance that she would walk out.

Happily Married for 21 years. I love being married to her and I sucked at being single, so life is good!


Oh I'm sooooo tempted! :devil:

Well I suppose it depends on how you define yourself (CD or TS), but it seems to me there is no reason for you NOT to give your reply here. If I understand correctly, you do cross dress and this thread didn't say anything about being only for MTF. :-)

I was happily married for 6 years, 9 months, 2 weeks, 3 days 2 hours and 37 minuets when the wife come home one night and said "you know what? I'm sick of you. I have been for the past five years because your worthless. Good luck raising the kids (at the time 4 year old boy and 20 month old girl), good luck keeping the bank from foreclosing the house and good bye." That was October of 2000 and I have seen her 5 maybe 6 times since. Then I find out she was having affairs with 2 for sure maybe a thrid guy for six months trying to decide which one she liked better. Most people can't belive I want to get married again.

Intresting thread! I am single now and loving every minute of it. I was married for 23 years and after telling her the truth about me it was all over. For some reason she could not accept this and we divorced because of this. I am happy now with my life and look back on my past as an unforrtunate part of my life. I am happy now and that is all that matters. I wish every cd on this site was as happy as i am.

just a guess here but some people may be reluctant to bring up crossdressing when you just begin dating. i think once you feel very comfortable in a relationship you may bring it up then.

Hey Girls, We have been together for a little over 4 years and we have been married for 1 year and 4 months now:love:. She knew about my desire to be fem and my want to dress from the beginning. We have enjoyed every moment of it! 1000% supportive! The only thing that scares her also scares me, redneckville Tennessee isn't a place to go public with Kaitlin:sad:

My girlfriend and I had been living together for about 2 years, when we finally decided on a day to get Married. I knew that I did not want to start off our Marraige with any "lies or secrets" and somehow I had to tell her about my secret. I was scared that once I did tell her that I enjoy crossdressing "and" that I have a panty fetish to boot...that she would call me a sick pervert and pack up her things and leave me.
We were just getting ready for bed and I decided that it was now or never. I told her that I had a secret that needed to tell her, I couldn't even look her in the eye when I told her [with a trembling fear in my voice] It was one of those moments that you just have to say it without being hesitant. After I had told her I finally got up the courage to look at her.
She was quiet for a moment.. and then she asked me "are you serious"? I told her that I was very serious and that I felt the need to tell her ...so she knew just what she was getting into. Then she asked me "do you have clothes that you wear ...here...a secret stash"? I replied to her "yes". Then she smiled at me and said "welllllll...let me see what you have". This enormous pressure was lifted off of my soul.
I went over to my hiding place and got out my wardrobe of feminine clothing and underwear... showing her all of the things that I had. She even asked me to put on a pair of panties. I was thankful that she was accepting it and was very understanding about it.
The wedding went on as planned and in April 2009 we will have been married for 20 years. [with 2 children] Sure we have had our ups and downs...but we have never had an arguement over ..or about that topic.
Each of us have to decide when the right time might be...to tell our other half about our pleasures..and some may choose not to tell them at all. But for me..I felt that it would be wrong to start a marraige with secrets and /or lies. I am one of the lucky ones I guess. :hugs:

Wonderful story! You *are* lucky :)

Thank you all for your replies - keep 'em coming. So far it's nice to see that so many of us are married ... maybe there's hope for me yet? Of course, I guess there's a lot of people that are married but the wife doesn't know or doesn't accept...

and... of course there's hope for you!! :o

It seems by this thread that over 60% of cross dressers are married. I noticed that a lot of people that post aren't happy with their marriage on these forums so I wonder how many of the people only married the other person thinking they would accept the cross dressing or because they felt others wouldn't accept it. I also think there should be another option stating married and happy. I'm sure if it was broken into married and happy and married and not happy it would prob split the numbers in half for marriage.

Hi Goofus,

I'm in your position, been single for sixteen years now and have had a couple relationships along the way. And just can't bring myself to marry again. Guess I just like my independance too much.
