I'd forgotten how much work I put into my old Blog and started reading it again and its not a bad blog is it lol.
Karen reminded me in another post about the acceptance curve..
I came across the Kubler-Ross curve years ago and it sort of fit Esmes reaction and acceptance over time of me crossdressing...
It’s a good place to start if your perspective is you will and want to get through the shock of finding out your other half enjoys to crossdress and want to make some sense of it and make your relationship continue more or less unaffected by this change which hes introduced.
The curve is relevant to crossdressing and the feelings my wife’s gone through.

Agreed getting the chat going, finding the right opportunity, time and place and hoping your wife will chat, it won't go quiet, you won't both clam up.
Me and Esme did this plenty of times so think it's good to prepare or for the wife to lead with some questions.
Me and Esme communicated in writing and talking and can now talk about it openly and easily i still pick my moments depending what mood she's in lol.
See Juliette Noirs two videos with wife talking about all this, our answers and questions may be different as Juliette is further along the spectrum in terms of an out and about t girl who's wife and child knows about Juliette. Hoping Juliette does a part 3.
Maybe compiling a question and answer sheet and conduct an interview type chat will help and also help to set a level of understanding and acceptance.
Eveyone is slightly different in their approach.
