Hi Love,

How you doing? I hope you find some answers and reassurance on this forum, it certainly has helped me loads, since finding out about my husband's CDing a few months ago.

Hope to chat soon,
Love,

Curly(SO).

-wel- (--) Love the screen name just about says it all. You have most of the tools you will need to help you grow through this experience and you have come to a place where you can see how those same tools have been put to use in all kinds of situations and experiences. Not everyone comes to grips with all of this but at least here you will always be able to get a good take on just about anything. Time seems to be one of the all time big factors here. Taking the time you need and give things the time they need.

Hello Love, (Sounds like the title to a Hank Snow tune from WAY back!)

If you're looking for information about crossdressing that's geared towards SO's AND crossdressers, let me offer you the material on my web site. It's a support site that's CLEAN, comfortable, and where you need not be worried about finding anything that will be an embarrassment to you in either text or picture format. Many of the questions that you have may very well be answered by the material assembled on the site and you may especially be interested in the "Letters From Wives" section.

Please do feel free to explore the contents and I would recommend that you and your CD do it TOGETHER. That way you can ask each other questions and get immediate answers about what you read as you read it. Communication - honest and open - is THE key to understanding so try to keep that in mind as you travel down this well used road. Also, please do let me know if you found the site to be of benefit to you and feel free to email me privately if you'd like to ask any questions that you might not be comfortable in asking in a forum type setting.

Hello Dixie Darling, :)
Thank you very much :) for offering some more information to help me. :) You are very thoughtful :)
It has been very difficult for me to find information sites that are geared for SO's and CDers, and that are clean, comfortable, and not just a pick-up place. Those site really scared me. I started to think that was what my DH was into also (me not knowing anything about CDing before).
This site (crossdresers-Forum) has been very helpful and comfortable for me, in finding the information I so needed.
My kids are home from school today....that usually doesn't leave me with much time by myself (they're always looking over my shoulder when I'm on the computer). I will look over your site, when I get some more free time.
Thank you again.
Love

Hi Love-
It's no fun to be in the first stages of finding out, but you have come to the right place.

I never had to deal with telling a partner about CDing, because I wasn't doing it for many years. But I do know about sharing painful revelations with partners, and the worst ones are those that seem like a deception.

I don't know your particular story, like how long you've been together. But there's a lot of pressure on a young CD to just not want to ever bring this up. He feels like he'll lose whoever he tells, and in many cases, it's true. The older we get, the more we see the value of telling all in the beginning.

Anyway--welcome to this forum!
Anita :)
