Very well done!! This should go up as a sticky.

A reaction I've read here often that I do not understand, is "Well, I told her. She's not talking to me about it, but the ball is in her court", which apparently releases the CDer from the uncomfortable responsibility of broaching the subject again. Or, "My wife doesn't want to talk about it, we're in a DADT". I've often wondered if these members actually prefer the safety of the closet. And it could well be that the desire to CD is weaker in these people, which makes an occasional visit to a closet perfectly doable.

But for people who cannot live like this, as a GG I cannot fathom another GG turning a deaf ear if her husband tells her, "This is not a whim. I cannot live without CDing, I cannot pretend to you that it does not exist. We need to talk so we can set up some ground rules, which means finding a place where I can store my stuff, and finding times when I can crossdress, even if you do not want to be involved. I will not force this onto you, I completely respect your decision to not be involved, but you need to know that I do dress, I do enjoy buying clothing and I refuse to sneak around like I am some sort of criminal."
