At my last place of work I had a lot of "friends" who I shared my crossdressing/trans side with, and they offered a lot of support as a friendly ear. That business is a leading LGBT friendly employer, so it's no surprise that I was comfortable sharing with them - but only because they were females. I don't feel comfortable sharing with men for whatever reason.
Having left, and slowly come to the realisation that they didn't actually care about me once I wasn't in their life on a daily basis, I have lost contact with them all - through choice. I just stopped making an effort and saw that it was all my effort and none of theirs.
So here we are and I have no actual "real" people who I can truly talk to about my gender issues.
My wife doesn't want to talk about it, but is happy for me to speak to a support network. There are support groups locally, but they have hard rules on attending dressed, and I don't want to have to lug makeup and clothes out every time, then have to clean everything up perfectly before getting home. I'd spend the majority of time getting dressed and undressed!
Anybody else in the same boat?
