Wife agreed

[Wendae]

I got the ok to wear panties early on in our marriage as I became short tempered and moody when deprived of them. After suggesting that allowing me to do this would ease tensions she agreed. Of course over the years it was a gradual progression to where I am now. But baby steps and logic seem to work if you really love eachother.

There is a difference between some degree of tolerance and full acceptance. My wife knows, and when we are alone (we have teenage boys who do not know) I can simply dress but that is mere tolerance. She knows and understands I have this need/desire but I know she would prefer I abstain. It would be a rare girl who fully accepts and is turned on by it or likes and encourages that you do it to the point of giving tips such as make-up application, advice on clothing that would look good on you, and purchases items for you. My wife loves me but tolerates this part of who I am.

I believe recently I realized my wife seems to have no objections, seems to really accept and understand - It has taken years for me to accept that she really has no objections, and accepts and understands. This realization once it found it's way way down into my soul has made a world of difference- I don't jump anymore, or feel the need to hide, or to wait and not dress - though I am still exceedingly careful to keep it from my sons and from public view and family - but even here I feel I am making progress toward opening the door wider at some point.

My wife has been supportive of my lingerie wearing throughout our married life. Despite this she is not happy with any progression beyond that, a skirt or other ladies wear appearing in my closet very quickly dissapears.

Our partners tolerate our cross dressing to some level or another, because they love us, not because they enjoy us dressing up. My wife, I think, now accepts that it happens but does not want to see any evidence of it, everyone has their own boundaries.

Paula,

I am 100% in the same circumstances as you. Just occasionally does my wife's mask slip. I am grateful for small mercies.
