New here, but have been watching for awhile

[Lynne]

Hello everyone.
Well today I decided to introduce myself. I have been reading the posts and I like, very much, what I read. I am amongst the very lucky CD'ers as my wife accepts my dressing 100%. I've only started dressing a lot in the past few months, and she is very happy with the results. She says she notices a very definate change in me, one she likes. I know that my stress levels drop significantly! And I feel good! Don't know or understand why, but I do.
I am 61 but no one believes it when they see me. My CD desires have been suppressed for the vast majority of my life. Work, raising kids, trying to make ends meet...you know...the regular grind. Now, my boys are on their own, our home is our own, and I have the freedom to dress as I wish.
I really appreciate the quality of the discussions and posts on this site and hope to become a regular contributor. I will certainly encourage my wife to help out on the SO side. She is a wonderful person, practical and very intelligent.
Thank you all,
Lynne

Hi Lynne,

Welcome to the forum! I'm glad to count you as part of the posting contingent (hint, hint, to all you silent ones out there! ). It's great that your wife enjoys who you are; she does, indeed, seem like a boon in your life. Just make sure you tell her so, and often! I hope you enjoy your connections with the wonderful members here and I look forward to hearing more from you.

Love,
CJ

Hi Lynne and welcome!

I know how you feel ´cause my gf also supports my dressing and she likes what CDing does to me and our relationship. I`m much better person when I´m able to dress on a regular basis. It is wonderful to hear that your life is in balance and you are able to express your true self and enjoy your femininity All the best to both of you!

Yes, we are all very fortunate that this forum exists for us to connect. Not having to feel alienated, or 'odd' or whatever, is wonderful. I thank you all for your part in my new found peace of mind. Tonight I have a new dress to wear!
all the best,
Lynne
BTW, where do you girls find the avatars?

where do you girls find the avatars?

I found a picture on the net I liked, cropped it and resized it to fit the requirements for this site.

Lorna posted some at http://www.geocities.com/lorna2cute/avatars4u/ you can use.

Just read your post DonnaT, thanks a bunch. I'll take a look at them, maybe find one that fits!

Hi Lynne,

Welcome to the forum . Enjoyed reading your post. I also find that CDing reuces my stress levels significantly, though I'm afraid my SO is not so accepting as yours, but I suppose we have time on our side as I'm only just over half your age! Great to see you here.

hugs,

Katy-Jane

Welcome Lynne,
As my sisters have said, indirectly, , having expereience and then sharing it is being a part of the sisterhood. We all look forward to hearing more from you, and you are not that much older than some of us here.
Love,
Virginia
