I've been in the closet since I got married 35 years ago. Four months ago my SO found my sz. 13 pumps, I didn't tell her the whole story.
She seemed to be over the shock in less than a month. Then last month I left a hair brush and hair clip out and she freaked out and wanted the whole story.
After I told just about every detail she said she would have never married me, that I was a freak, we would never be intimate again, etc.
then silent treatment for over a week.
Well since then I've been worried since I love her and want to stay married.
Well little by little she seems to be getting over the anger.
Today I was giving her all the sales slips I had for household stuff and I handed her one and said "here's the receipt for the pumps I bought"
She looked at me like (what the heck) and I said "No, the water pumps for the heating system" then we both cracked up laughing.
Wow life of a CDer?
