Wanted to tell someone......but couldn't.

You know how it is when something new or exciting happens to you and your best friend rings you are just dying to tell, but there is a problem, it's CD related and they don't know about your secret. This happens to me quite a lot. I would love to be able to say that I have just received a new petticoat or a vintage slip from the USA. What a bitch always having to keep your good news to yourself.
I am fortunate though in that I can tell my sister but I will not overburden her with my excitement with, what for her, would only be small talk news. Does this happen little or often to many of you out there?
Jane.

Can't say it has happened very often.

Just pick up the phone and shout it out, just don't dial anyone

Hi Jane,

Yes I have that feeling. I can usually share it with my wife or on the forum though.

That usually makes me feel better.

Hi all,

Jane,

I try to not share that kind of good news with my GG friends as they tend to want to raid my closet and shoe rack.

I keep telling them that, when I no longer value this or that item of clothing or pair of shoes, they'll get dibs. A few months ago, I gave away roughly half my shoe and boot collection; a dozen pairs went to friends and colleagues (yes, women can have large feet, too, you know!

).

Seriously, though, there's a thread on this very forum where people share in the joy their latest purchases brings them. Go check it out.

Love,
CJ

I to have a sister that I can confide in dicuss the items that I have recently purchased. Just last week, she and I were out shopping for household items for her apartment when I noticed a nice pair if pink open-toe 3/4 inch heals and showed them to her. She gave a nice node of liking them but said that they were too large.. I smiled and said "just the right size" ... She laughed and gave an approving smile. She and I enjoy shopping together and has become more comfortable with shopping. However, she is not ready for a "sisters" shopping day. Just a shopping day even though she knows all and permits me to sleep over as my fem self.
