Really, really bad analogy. No one knows if they will get sick. YOU know if you are a cross dresser. Not even in the same universe of similarities.

I will admit that when I'm truly p o 'd at him and listing his faults in my head, "and he's a cross dresser too" does come at the end of the list - but that's because it's the least important. ...

Wonderfully stated. Just proves women are better than men when it comes to compassion, empathy, and forgiveness. A strong foundation get deal with cross dressing. It does not mean it will be embraced, and that's ok.

I agree... I know when I was told I have stage 4 cancer, I never knew... only one in the family to ever have cancer

I would have to say yes to marrying him even if I knew. He was/is my best friend. We knew each other for years before we dated. I was 12 he was 14 when we meet. I was 20 & in college when we got married. He knows everything about my past and I knew ALMOST everything about his.

It might have made me think before we had kids. We might have moved out of this closed minded, southern baptist mentality state. I might have stayed on my career path instead of being a stay at home mom/wife. He took my choices away by not telling me. All I can do now is work on my anger & betrayal issues. Help him become more confidant in her. Raise my 4 beautiful children and take it one day at a time.

It is not the fact that he CD. It's the fact that my choices were taken away.
