It's been a while since I posted, but I just had to share my experience telling my girlfriend about my crossdressing. We haven’t been going out for very long, but I decided a long time ago that this wasn’t something I could hide from someone I was even remotely serious about. Even so, this is only the second time I’ve told anyone. (The other time was the only other remotely serious relationship I’ve been in.) So, a few nights ago, I told her. I was nervous, and it took me a few tries to come out with it. She was surprised, and said that she had always seen me as a “rugged mountain man,” but she told me that she was okay with it. Whether I wanted to keep it private, involve her in it, or even, in her words, walk through Piccadilly Circus in a ball gown, she would support me.
Over the last few days, we have talked about it a little more. She has asked some questions (Mostly practical things. Do I pad my hips? What sorts of clothes do I wear? Do I try things on in shops?), and I have answered openly. She has suggested that we go shopping for me sometime, and when I showed her a photo (after she had asked to see one), she complimented me on my fashion sense and said that I should come along as her “shopping assistant” when she shops for herself. She has even hinted that I might try some of her clothes, though I rather doubt that any of them would fit. I’m a good nine inches taller than her! Probably the most wonderful thing that she has said, though, is simply that she thinks it’s great that I’ve been able to accept and express this side of myself.
I couldn’t have hoped for a more accepting, supportive reaction. I just wanted to add my voice to the chorus saying that there really are some incredible women out there.
