The World Did Not End Today. It Got Better.
A while back my SO said she was accepting of my feminine side. Last night we had another opportunity to talk about it. I asked if she minded if I dressed a little more feminine around the house. To keep a long story short she said that she really doesn’t care about the clothes so no big deal. She was also very appreciative that I asked her for her opinion before I brought any clothes into the house. We set some basic ground rules like discussing the next step in our journey and she has veto power on what I wear. So for the time being we agreed that leggings and panties around the house would be a good start.
I was so excited that I could finally go shopping that I could not sleep. On the drive into civilization I built up a lot of anxiety so I decided to stop at target to test the waters. I bought a few items, a Venus razor, facial scrub, and clear nail polish. No one cared that I was checking out the nail polishes. I used the self checkout and as I walked out of the store I said to myself, the world did not end today. With one stop under my belt I went across the street to Lane Bryant. When I walked into the store the SA asked me if I needed some help. I nervously said yes and that I was looking for some leggings and panties. At that point I owned up to the fact that they were for me. She really put me at ease, introduced herself, helped me find some leggings and let me use the fitting room. Then she took me over to look for some panties. We really got into a nice conversation about panties. She told me which ones she liked and why. The way she talked to me made me feel like one of the girls. I was so comfortable that I confessed to being a newbie. I bought two pairs of leggings and five pairs of panties. On my way out the door she said anytime you need anything just ask and I will be happy to help you (she is not commission based). When I left the store all my anxiety way gone and I felt a huge burden was lifted. Again, the world did not end. It just got better. :battingeyelashes:
When I got home, I tried on my panties and I finally get it. They are the softest, most delicate thing I have ever worn. They are oh so comfortable. :daydreaming:
I want to thank you all for sharing your stories and empowering me to write one of my own.
Hugs,
