So much for taking it to my grave.
I finally did it! I never thought I would but I did. I told my SO about my crossdressing. You know what happened then? Nothing! No tears, no guilt trip, very few questions, and a simple "it's weird but OK." She is way more supportive than I would have imagined. She even seemed relieved! I've never been an advocate for jumping out of the closet, so I imagine there will be surprise among many here that I told. I had to do it. The future stability of my marriage as well as my health demanded it.
There is no more anxiety, no mood swings, and no hiding. I now have a totally open marriage. My wife seems happier now than ever, I guess my fresher outlook is contagious? It took awhile to soak in and for me to process this all but I AM SO HAPPY now!!!!!!!
