I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself!
I came out to a friend about a year ago, and I'll be going over to her place next week and having a girls night. She's going to do my makeup, and go through all of my clothing with me, choosing the outfit that looks most passable, and then starting slow with some time in her garden.
If I feel confident enough, I'll then go for a walk around her area and maybe even to an actual shop, if only for the confidence boost.
Honestly I feel so amazing right now. My wife found my stash around 9 months ago and after telling her that yes, it was mine, it's about escapism, no I'm not gay or bi, I just enjoyed wearing the clothes and being femme, the topic has never been brought up since.
I purged through guilt, but the desire came back stronger than ever in the past two months. I've bought forms, shapewear, a few outfits and will hopefully introduce Charlotte to the world in a week.
So lucky to have my trans-ally friend - she's so welcoming of the drag and cd scene, and I didn't ever see myself sharing this side of me with another person.
Now I just need to pray that somehow I actually look passable!
