Basically, we're mostly guys here. U can't hurt our feelings THAT easily. And if, in a few cases u do, we'll get over it in no time! I haven't read anything that hurt mine!
SweetPea, Shannon and other GGs. Here's why we often seem immature. For many CDs, they've thot about they're dressing urges on and off their entire lives. Rejecting, then resisting, then dressing, then starting this cycle all over again and again. FINALLY, they get to a point where they fully embrace they're inner fem feelings. The fite is over! Then, they show up here. They're so giddy to finally be who they've WANTED TO BE for years AND they r accepted here! I can't describe the relief, satisfaction, and joy we provide each other here. Something many of us can't get ANYWHERE ELSE! Many of us keep our secret lives entirely to ourselves outside the Web! OF COURSE we want to show off!
Remember back to that first junior hi, or hi school dance of yours? U were all made up and dressed to the 9's for the very first time and u looked in the mirror. Looking back was this BEAUTIFUL YOUNG WOMAN!
And, u went out knowing u looked gorgeous! Wanting everyone to see the beauty u had become! Well, THAT'S HOW IT IS for some of us!
Immature? Yes! Think of us as young teens because many of us FEEL like that! I've been dressing for 15 years. Yet, I'm just beginning to go out as Sherry. It's kind of like a young teen finding out who she is! And, LOOKS MATTER!
Which is a COMPLETE OTHER aspect of dressing that is like looking into the mirror the first time! Seeing the reaction, rejection or acceptance, of our alter egos in public! Further validation some of us need. However, many NEVER develope the courage or desire to leave our closets dressed!
Lastly, SweetPea, have u ever heard the expression, "If momma ain't happy, ain't NOBODY happy!"?
A happy marriage should be a 50/50 partnership. Sharing and communicating with each other so partners can work out the bumps with compromises that either work or re-worked until they do!
When my marriage reached a point where compromises weren't possible anymore, we separated! Then, divorced.
I suggest both u and your SO need marriage counseling immediately! Because it sounds as if your communication and compromising has become all one sided! And, "Momma ain't happy!"
I'll bet your marital problems r NOT all about CDing either!
