Agreed we do talk a load of twaddle for me mainly work and sport and less about relationships.

We hide our feelings as thats what men do lol why because were conditioned that way from young.

Crossdressing is a form of stress relief for me.. partly with many more aspects and reasons also for crossdressing .

Sometimes however when I'm stressed and hyper busy in work I wouldnt say crossdressing is the last thing I want to do more like the stress has got too great even for crossdressing to resolve and a chance to crossdress is foregone to get the work done.

Is it selfish I dont think its a selfish hobby or habbit its very occasional and does no harm and in terms of stress helps, but im talking in terms of my dressing some others may be more selfish as Sindy eludes to ,

My friendships also tend to be more based around activities such as sport and work.

In many ways I am a bit of a loner happy with my wife and kids company, prefer to go out with my wife or with couples than a bunch of men I have lots of friends but not many close friends and always been that way.

I was popular in school, college and University across the board and friends with everyone not in a clique or kids who thought they were elite although I could have been but preferred to get on with everyone and look after everyone and im the same now still and dont have airs and graces but will speak to a chief exec the same as i speak to a man on a shovel and have responsibility for a large workforce and my family all miles before crossdressing.

In terms of my job I lose a lot of family time which im trying to address but its hard to balance work and life at the moment which is frustrating and stressful maintaining some sort of balance is hard.

I have struggled with crossdressing guilt for putting my wife through me being a crossdresser but talking about this with my wife and others has got me past this.

There is an urge to crossdress which can come and go and it is a part of 'me'.

It can be boring and rather lonely crossdressing alone at home whilst working from home or in a hotel room away with work so its nice my wife has planned a girls night in. It must be hard being in the closet and also having to dress away from home.

Sindy has rejected crossdressing and hoping the chat here helps her vent her frustratings and Katies wife knows but has buried her head in the sand all stops along the way my wifes been at herself only talking can resolve this however hard it may be to do

Crossdressing is just one part of all of us an insignificant significant part of us not in the top 10 important things to us but something we enjoy or I enjoy similar to enjoying sport etc.

Agreed all we can do is try not to be dicks about it haha
