Hi Girls....
Pretty soon within the next few days I'll be leaving this site for awhile...
As some of youa re aware, my marriage is ending and I'm moving back home to Florida. I'll be leaving a marriage that has covered some 14 years and another six years beyond that that I've known my wife. We've had some issues that have coem up that has put us in the position of needing to go in different directions with our lives....The dressing is a part of it, but a small part compared to the other issues that we've had to deal with.
Where are we now???? Well she and I went out last nite for our "last date" and had a a very nice time talking about times gone by and experiences and all and it seems like nothing is wrong with our relationship, yet we both know we have changed and need to now go in different directions with our lives....so that means that sometime in the next few days I'll pack up say good bye and move on to a new chapter in my life....and her life as well....
For the past year and a half since I began to dress and I came to this site I have learned a tremendous amount of information as it related to dressing...from makeup to clothing from hair styles to nail polish....but learn I have and it's all come from suggestions insight and experience of you girls...and what you see in my avitar is what I have evloved from and into...
But more importantly, and the purpose of this thread, is along the way I have had the womderful opportunity to meet some of you via e-mail IM and other mediums of cyber space and something wonderful has happened....I have found friends that I have had contact with beyond threads and posts....and some of you I have actually had the pleasure to meet in person...but many of you I have also been able to call "friends"...and one day if nothing else I would like to have the opportunity to meet each of you in person as Stephanie, as your sister(s) and give youa big hug and simply say "thanks for being you and supporting and caring for me as I have progressed to whom I have become...
So to each of you with whom I or Stephanie have had contact with during the past year and a half of this wonderful journey, I wish to to say now "Thank you all" for being who you are and reaching out to help Stephanie become who she is....and in doing so it has allowed her to move out into other venues both her in cyberspace as well as in the real world to meet other girls as wel,l and that has only added to the total experiences that is now her life and her world...
We are about to turn a new page on a new chapter...and one thing is for sure...it will be a chapter that features Stephanie and what is laying ahead for her as she becomes more of a cental part of our life....and all of this is partly due to the kindness, comapssion friendship and love that she has received over the past year and a half from you all....
In time, after the dust settles, the boxes get unpacked and thoughts get sorted out we'll be back...not sure how long that will be but hopefully not to long....we both need to be able to sort thought some emotions, feelings, memories as well as getting our legs in a new "place" and "time" for us both...moving "from" and "to" isn't all that easy at best and under these circumstances this will be a bit more difficult...
So yes, as usual, I've gotten a bit long winded here...but then again it wouldn't be me...
So to all you girls Steve and Stephanie wish to say thank you for being who you are, what you are and what you have give us both....you will always be remembered, appreciated, respected and loved...
Thanks....
Steve and Stephanie...
Gone but will return!
