1. Did you find out about your partner's cross dressing
It started with him wearing my underwear as a funny/kinky thing. He lead me to believe that he never did that kind of thing before me. I don't actually remember when I knew how serious his cd'ing was . over time I would do his makeup and would pick out a few dresses for him to own. I had no clue, I just tried to accept what I could

(c)Otherwise. see above
3. When you found out about your partner's cross dressing, which of the following emotions were strongest
I didn't have any feelings about it in the beginning. Like I said I was clueless. I accepted because I didn't know not to. Over time he exhausted me with it and neglected our relationship.
4. Overall, has your partner's crossdressing made your relationship
(c) Over
5. If you had found out sooner would you have
(b) Tried to come to terms with it through negotiation
Sadly this cd thing consumed his brain and the whole relationship became about it. Anytime I asked him what he wanted to do on a weekend it was always cd. I just wanted him to just once say I want to take you out for a good time like a "normal" couple. Sadly I was the only one making compromises so that he could cd.
(6) Briefly, if you could advise a woman who has found out the her partner is a cross dresser, what would you say?
I would tell her to talk to him and get to the bottom of how much this is on his brain. I would tell her actions speak louder than words. He will not tell her the whole truth. I would tell her that this is a very difficult relationship to be in and she should do some serious inventory about the kind of person he is. I would say TRUST YOUR GUT. If you are confused about his feelings he is probably lying. I would say compromise, communication and respect for each other is key. If these are lacking, the relationship will most likely fail.
Finally, can I offer you and your ladies a heartfelt thank you for being here.
I have never known a women to do this. Most of us are mothers and use our extra money on our children and family. Not on expensive cosmetic treatments. Most go for inexpensive treatments so that we don't feel guilty about taking away so much from the family.
