Panic today

[Kendra08]

So last week I was out at the mall in guy mode just looking around. I saw that the Torrid was going out of business and I had to go in. I bought 3 new dresses, I was very excited. One of these dreeses is strapless so I needed to buy a bra to go with it. I went to JC Penneys and picked out a couple of new bras and went to the check out. When I was in line I saw an older gentleman that looked familar but I had no idea why. As he walked by he look at the bras in my hand, then looked at me and walked away and shook his head. I didn't think much of it until today when I went to work (I'm a teacher), there were several absences in my department due to a conference and there is the older gentleman subbing in the room 2 doors down from me. We looked at eachother and I just freaked out inside. I can't imagine he would say anything but I totally avoided having to see him again and even ate lunch in my classroom. I just hope he didn't put it together, I'd die if my coworkers knew and started talking. Just had to get this out thanks for reading my rant.

"As he walked by he look at the bras in my hand, then looked at me and walked away and shook his head."
For someone who knew you, that was kind of rude behavior. I hope you don't have much contact with him but don't worry about it.

Are you married or living with a SO ? It could be explained that way.
But it really isn't any of his business why you were buying what you bought.

I know how rumors start and I know you don't want any about you, so play it cool. If you hear any, then you will know where they came from.

Maybe it will just blow over

Being an older man he might be looking at what you were buying and thinking that a man shouldn't be buying stuff like that. The older generation in some cases is stuck in the era where there is manly stuff and girly stuff and it should never be mixed.

Hi Kendra

I don`t think you should worry too much , if anything is said you could allways say you were shopping for someone else.
You didn`t tell us how everything fit . LOL

I'm sure it will just blow over and do tell, how did everything look and fit.

[docrobbysherry]

DO NOT lend him any of your bras! Even if they're his size! :Angry3:

[beenherelongtime]

do not cross any bridges before you come to them. he could just have been, as suggested, shaking his head because he felt men should not buy these items.

[Kendra08]

I know I'm probably looking way to into it. He may not even realize it was me it just really freaked me out. As for the dresses, I'm so happy with them. I hope to have some pics up this coming weekend to show everyone. Thanks for talking me down.

Just forget you were ever there and treat him as usual. You did nothing wrong and he shouldn't question you about it. It is none of his business and you were exchanging something for your wife...

[trannie T]

He may have been shaking his head because he knows how uncomfortable underwires like the ones you had can be.

[amy canada]

Or maybe he was shaking his head because it was the wrong colour for you. LOL

reminds of the idea of being outed on here.....and you were on that site for what....looking for power tools i suppose?

he was just casually walking through Foundations and Ladies Better Dresses?LOL

since when is buying womens' garments - any womens' garments - cause for concern? is there no Valentine's Day or Christmas? are the "RULES" suspended for those few days?

chill sugar, you're fine.

[RachelDenise]

He was shaking his head because he wished he had the courage to do what you were doing! :thumbsup:

[erickka]

The older folks are just set in their way of thinking. My dad would NEVER think of picking up feminine products, etc. for my mom. I do it all the time for my wife. He probably thinks that you shouldn't be buying stuff for a lady!

[Chari]

He knew you were buying lingerie there, but what was HE doing there? Maybe he's jealous of you adding to your wardrobe! If you hear anything about it, say nothing - just laugh it off!

I would even put it a different way. I was paying for someone else. My wife always abandons me once we get in line. I have bought a lot of clothes for her that I didn't pick out (certainly some that I have :-) ). I certainly don't pick her bras out. But he doesn't know if she was there or not.

All that assuming you have a wife or gf.

[Jennifer Giovannetta]

Kendra I think you do not have anything to worry about. There are many reasons for you holding those bras in a checkout line, especially if you have a wife or girlfreind. My wife works nights and sometimes sends me out to purchase makeup for her. I do not know if someone saw me at the Clinique counter at Macy's. I really would not care if someone saw me and actually said anything.
Wife or girlfreind could of asked you to pay for the items while she goes off to pee or something. Your SO could work nights and really need a bra. She could tell you the size, preferred manufacturer, color and send you on your way.
Another thing is this persons reaction. Was crossdressing the first thing that popped though his mind? Keeping in mind that you might of had a legitimate reason (as far as he is concerned) to be there. Looked at you and shaked his head? It was very rude. And it is actually none of his freaking buisness what you choose to buy or wear.
If I were you I would go to work with you head held high. You did NOTHING wrong.
