It definitely felt like crossing a threshold, or evolving, when I actually took time to accept the part of me that has always been there, just hidden from view (mostly). When I dress generally I only...
Lots of good advice here so far, take it to heart! The two things that caught my attention were your wife's desire to do EVERYTHING together. We all need some space, and to me that would feel like...
While I don't go out dressed, the way things are has made me put any such ambitions back in the box. I'd never come close to passing anyways, and the risk is high with my...
When I started seeing my current doctor (my last one retired) she never commented on my shaved legs. I did mention that I had the bad hair gene and would look like a wookie if I didn't shave- which...
Sounds like a great relationship! My wife knows and accepts my CDing, but I don't think I would ever want to share her clothes- aside from different sizing, I don't know. I'd rather have my own...
Well played. :D
Dressing urges stay constant, but I tend to buy more items with all the sales going on. The wife always taught me to watch for deals, particularly on women's clothing as the sales can be quite good.
I've been a nail biter all my life, still haven't been able to quit. I did manage to stop peeling my toenails and finally keep them at a nice length so I can paint them regularly. I'd love to stop...
That's pretty nifty. I just have storage totes where all of my femme stuff lives. Reminds me, I really need to organize things as it is taking too long to find what I'm looking for... :D
I wear leggings a LOT, especially during the winter months. They make a good layer under my work clothes, or non-work clothes. Painting my toenails has become a nice little thing I do on occasion,...
I was going to point out the way the GG's who posted advice on this thread were pretty much being ignored...but I see I was late to that party. As someone who is "out" to my wife, I would never think...
If you count wearing leggings under my work pants, then I guess I've been underdressing near every day (except summer) at work for years! Occasionally I'll spice it up with painted toenails as well,...
Welcome aboard! The best advice I can give you is to accept who you are- you may be still trying to find that, but when you do embrace it. Once I accepted that some portion of me wants to dress...
I also can look at it as an "escape" from my everyday male mode- and the high stress job that I have. Other times it may be more of a "get in touch with my feminine" aspects; it has on occasion...
Probably a 5 or 6 here. She knows I dress, doesn't have an issue with it. I don't do it in front of her. She does buy me nail polish, and has given me some hand-me-down items she didn't want anymore....
Certainly is a stress relief for me...I have a somewhat stressful occupation and CDing helps me get away from all that, and maybe be someone else for a short time.
To me, heels are just complete the package- I doubt I would find this as much fun wearing flats or sneakers with my outfits. Probably would not wear them outside the house as I doubt I'd last more...
I have all of my items in plastic storage bins in the basement. Wife knows I dress and accepts it, but I do not do it in front of her. As she rarely goes to the basement this works out nicely for us....
Good to hear lots of you are making good use of the time at home! For me, unfortunately (fortunately?) I am an essential worker and as such am still working, helping to keep things moving along as...
I'll join the chorus, this is by far the best site for us CD'ers. I may not post all that much, but I don't hesitate to chime in when the subject interests me. I've yet to feel judged or...
While I don't have plans to go out en femme any time soon, I do appreciate the encouragement. Everyone has their own reasons why they do or do not go out presenting as who they want to be- I'm not...
I purged three times that I can remember...along with illogical thoughts that I wasn't going to dress anymore or that I was "over" or had "outgrown" that "phase". When I actually decided to accept...
Yes, delightful post. Always good to hear of a positive change in a marriage and how it relates to CDing. Take care of that wife, she's a keeper. :-)
Thanks everyone for commiserating with me....I love the continental drift comparison. I don't need to put a fake nail over the real one as really the only ones who see them are myself and my wife....
