Hi ladies,
In my introduction I had mentioned that I would like to talk to my ex about some make up assistance,it was brought to my attention that it could be a slippery slope since I was very closeted. Shortly thereafter I made a visit to her,and we were having a nice chat. Since the time we?ve been divorced I was in a motorcycle accident that left me with some skin grafts on my calf,I was showing them to her and she said ?are your legs shaved??, I said yes,and I continued on and told her I was a cross dresser. She was very accepting of it,and has been behind me 100% since I?ve told her.
Shortly after I was Skyping with my niece,with whom I?m relatively close with,and I told her,once again,very accepting. She has given me many pointers since then,gotta love it from GG?s.
At this point,I am feeling like,wow,it?s pretty easy telling people. Next I begin telling my family,all more supportive than I could have imagined. Unfortunately I can not bring myself to tell my friends,I have only got a few,and we have all been friends for nearly 40 years,I just can?t do it. I guess I?m too afraid of them judging me. I hope that I can share this with them eventually. I am actually quite surprised they are not picking up on my femme ways,everyone else has.
I have not been outside,other than walking to the mailbox. I really feel that the make up is very important to go out in public. I am getting there,my ex has helped me,but I need tons of practice.
My mascara has gotten better since I first started,haha. I am in desperate need of fixing my eyebrows,but I am afraid once I do that,my friends will notice and I may be forced to tell them.
But then again,it is my life,and dressing is what makes me happy,and I want to be out.
