I have had feelings to dress as far back as i can remember but now approaching 39 I can't hold them back any more.
Five years ago i told my wife of my desires and it shattered her world she had all kinds of confused feelings,did she know me?
could she trust me?did i want to be a woman ?etc............
Looking back a lot for her to take in!
After all i had 10 yrs to think about how to tell her about how i felt

All through our relationship and not since i was thirteen had i atempted to dress (even though the urges came daily)except one day, two years ago,when I extended a business trip, acted on a impluse and nervously booked 3hrs in a dressing service.

Wow!.......what an experience!
That night I felt that someone had released the weight of a life time of tension from my shoulders and I slept like a baby.
Then i had to bring an other secret home!

fast foward
relationship is strong and my so is encouraging me to dress and explore my feelings

So for me where next?
Crossdressers-Fourm it is

Hello Cristal,

Not quite sure how your relationship is with your wife now, but she is welcome to join our forum as well. She would have the opportunity to talk with other GG's on a private thread and I think she would find it most enlightening.

We look forward to your participation.
