    U haven't adequately described your relationship with your "friend", or your personal situation for me to intelligently comment, Sam. Others may feel the same!

    Does she know your family and friends? Or, work with u? Will she "tell" on u? In other words, what kind of DAMAGE could she do if u leveled with her? How is it she walked in on Sam's things?

    R u completely closeted? Or, do u go out dressed occasionally? Etc. etc.
    U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.

    Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!

    Only advice I can think of is to just be open and honest with her. She will appreciate that no matter how she feels about it.

    Hi Samantha. Basically, it's none of her business, BUT, if she is a good friend, and you trust her, just tell her.

    .





    There are 4 ways to answer those questions.

    01. No - No
    02. Yes - Yes
    03. No - Yes
    04. Yes - No


    You could try to convince her that you weren't home and didn't see her that night and she must have dreamed that she was there and saw the items.

    Seriously, if she is a good friend and you trust her, tell her the truth.

    I spend a lot of time in the closet, because that's where my clothes are.

    What tone does she use when she asks the gay/bi questions? Is she all indignant and repulsed? Then make up an excuse (say the stuff was left by your hot new girlfriend). If she is friendly and just interested, you can try telling her... Keep in mind, though, that even people who are cool with homosexuality may still have a problem with crossdressing and transgenderism. I guess that you know your friend best, so only you can predict what her reaction might be.

    Good luck!

    If she has a lot of questions, you might want to give her some 'safe', accurate information on heterosexual transvestism as one would give their SO. Point her to Tri-Ess's web site, maybe give her a copy of "Coping With Crossdressing" or "My Husband Wears My Clothes" if you have access to them etc.

    The clothing could belong to another female, your sister, mother or aunt even, so she
    should not be jumping to conclusions just yet, especially about your sexual orientations.

    Our sexual orientation are NOT binary to gender identities - see this video:



    But I think you need to start being straight up & honest with people if
    this is the lifestyle you live then you can't ever get caught out like this
    .

    Tell her you are transgendered and that you are exploring your gender identity and that you are
    not sure if you are a transsexual women who likes other women, making you a lesbian, or even if
    you are a heterosexual male cross-dresser who likes women because you a have a bit of a fetish.

    Like others have said here, you have given us no background on yourself or your relationship to this
    woman, so it is impossible to know what to suggest until well have a better understanding on you,
    your gender status & how this might impact on your relationship. So give us a bit more info please.

    PS: The best advice I can give you right now is find a clinical pyschologist so you
    can understand who you really are, so you can find the best ways to deal with this.

    The "Are you gay/bi?" question is one of the FAQs of the crossdresser's world. (I know, because I've been writing some things down in preparation for eventually telling my fiancee, and basically just came up with a big Q&A section.) As to how you can answer that...well, you can tell her that you personally are not gay or bi (assuming that's the case...if you are, well, you can respond that way too), and you can also add that, among crossdressers as a whole, homosexuality and bisexuality are about as prevalent as they are among the general population...or, in other words, most CDs are heterosexual.

    The other FAQ is, of course, "Do you want to become a woman?" Again, only you can answer this for yourself, but you can also say that only a relatively small portion of CDs are transsexuals, who feel that they are actually in a body of the wrong physical gender.

    If your relationship is solid and trustworthy, tell her the truth ASAP. Honesty goes a very long way in a relationship, and is a major foundation block for a healthy one. You never know, you just may end up with a fantastic personal fashion consultant!

    Well, if she is going into your bedroom, she must be a close friend.
    Our close friends don't go into our bedroom.

    Not knowing anything about this friend or the context of her visit, I assume there was an awkward moment when she discovered your things lying about. So, you didn't really answer her question at the time? Did you offer some explanation at all? That probably left her to reach her own conclusions.

    As several others have already noted - CDing and sexual orientation are not the same thing...its just a common stereotype. If I were you, I'd just be honest about it. And if she asked about your orientation, then maybe you should just tell here. (regardless of whether she's "trustworthy" she's already filling in the blanks anyway).

    I'd also suggest that you go to the "how to tell a partner" discussion in this forum for some prep on the kinds of questions she's likely to have(like the gay/bi question) .

    It's difficult to judge but I would assume she is asking the gay bi questions for a reason.

    She has already decided the things are yours. Like most who have little knowledge of our community she has assumed you must be gay or Bi. If you say you are straight then it may raise more questions, especially if she has any interest in you. She may have to re think who the clothes belong too. You could also tell her clothes have nothing to do with sexuallity which could be the start of a long conversation.

    Only you can decide on the best way to answer depending on how well you know her.

    Good Luck

    Let's see here..You are at home she comes over and sees everything and starts asking you questions.

    So what did you say? How did YOU explain it

    asking for advice now seem pointless without more information from you about what you have already told her.

    Like others have said, there is not enough information about you or her to make a suggestion on how to go about handling it. How old are you/her. is this a casual friend or a potential love interest? How close are you as friends?
    Other then that, you already got some great advice....Tell the truth.

    Gotta agree with Miranda, tell her the truth about your CD'ing. She has already seen enough to know, but in reality does not understand.

    Well, you could tell her this crazy girl ran into you bedroom and pulled off all of her cloths then ran out into the streets yelling I'm free!!!

    Just tell her the truth. I am a crossdresser and I am/am not gay. Then be prepared to answer the rest of her questions.

    Tell her, if she does not accept you she must not be the friend you thought her to be.

    I'm assuming, from your post, that when I walk through your front door your bras(plural) are hanging on the door handle? Is this the front door handle? Your make-up, perfume,and earrings are on the ledge of what? Your skirts and blouses are on the bed which I'm assuming is right inside the front door. So where are your panties, slips, pantyhose, camis, wigs, heels etc? Do you live in one room? Not trying to probe into your living quarters. I just need some more details before I can offer any advice. Not trying to question the veracity of the events.
