Hi Girls,
I see from some of the post here there are some very supportive wives. I have a situation where my wife knows, is fine me going off and dressing. She even talks to me about my adventures. However, there is one sticking point. She WILL NOT look at a picture of Liz. I just want her to know I am getting up to some pretty innocent fun being my female self however she gets quite nasty if I press her on the point. I’d dearly like her to get to know Liz, but there seems to be no way. Another side effect is that there is to be no dressing around the house, so I have to sneak around, sometime outside, in secret. How can I persuade her to go the last mile and accept me for what I am?
Love Liz xx
Oh Elizabeth my actual heart bleeds for you - what is the’dark secret’ she would rather imagine- that you are having an affair that she could possibly deny- is that something she would prefer to look away from rather than you being utterly faithful and being more in touch with your feminine side making you a more affectionate and thoughtful partner- I wouldn’t swap my Rachel for anyone xx
My wife knows but is definitely NOT interested in anything to do with my dressing, my clothes, my accessories etc. Everything I do is outside our house including every time I get an opportunity to dress, clothes storage, photoshoots, buying everything I need (or want tbf 😁), online orders, charity shop rummages etc, etc. Much as I'd like some understanding or participation, for her to see me dressed or for us to go to an event together, I don't think it's ever going to happen, she is so dead against it. I'm sure since she found out she has been less understanding and we have had some rough times but we barely talk about it these days.
Unfortunately you may be in a similar situation, despite what you would like, your wife has her boundaries and that's that. She may be fine with you discussing what you do and what you get up to but to actually SEE it just crosses that line. Maybe seeing you dressed would just compromise your masculinity in her eyes. Who knows! Hard as it is, you might be as far along the line as your likely to get. I'd definitely not recommend just surprising her either!!!
My wife set rules initially not wanting to see me dressed..
Then wanted to know if I was dressed so she'd not come home and I'm having to undress quickly.
Then was ok me dressing upstairs when she was home.
Then ok when I worked from home dressed but wanted to know if I was doing it.
Then one day she came home in her lunch time knowing I was dressed and came to meet Davina out of the blue at her own pace
That night we ordered me a better wig together.
That weekend we had our first girls night in.. and the rest is history..
It's frustrating I know I always think back to the years of worry and wanting to assure my wife we were ok 8 years she wouldn't see me as Davina then in her own time and terms came to say hi and was pleasantly surprised that I didn't look like a drag queen but a passable woman.
The wig we ordered
