I haven't fully dressed in about 8-9 years...long story, but for valid reasons of health with my wife.

My wife recently passed from long-term illness.

We spoke in detail about how I would live going forward after she passed away. We knew that the likelihood was there.

Told her that I would be staying home mostly, and probably spend 4-6 days as a female/woman/girl pick your term.

Also said that I wasn't looking to date or find someone else to have a relationship with.

I just want to live as a female/woman etc....

Here's the problem....I want to sit down and start doing my makeup and practicing the skills or techniques that have gotten rusty over the last 8-9 years.

However, I can't bring myself to do it. I think the issue with me is I'm afraid that I won't be able to achieve the look I want to have and end up looking like an old hag or worse...ugly.

Any suggestions on how I can get it going again??? I know its crazy, but it's becoming an issue for me.

Guidence please!!!

Thanks

Steph
