I dont know, if what I have to say, will have Anie
effect, but, I consider myself as Transgendered,,, pre op,, and problie never make it to a post op stage .. have been married for near
30 years, and pulled back
within myself, for close to the Last 20 years. Being myself with my wife, was
Amazing to say the least,
but at some point, she did a complete turn . It is in no way, her fault, as I
feel anie ways. My oldest stepdaughter, feels
differentlie tho, in that her mother Knew, and
Encouraged me,being
myself,, and then to becom
disgusted after 10, or so years into lifewith me,
tehre is no xcuse. My
wife’s thoughts were as to
the effect, she felt she
was becoming lesbian, as
she felt when we went to bed, she was making love to
another woman . It made My heart sink, and when she told me of her affair, because of My hangup,, well, I ended up going into a phsych
unit, for THE CURE lol. secret? there Is no cure.. running out of room, sorrie.. Chelle

Well said Andie. It doesn’t make it easy, but it makes an honest conversation possible.

If you have the courage, or have reached a point of no-return, this is a book to share with a wife who is only just getting to know about cross-dressing or TG issues. There is no way forward other than this kind of honesty, but it removes all the road blocks straight away: there shouldn’t be too many surprises left and everything becomes discussable. That doesn’t make it easy. But the book in its honesty reveals that you aren’t the only couple in the world, there are no promises, but there are possibilities of seeing the whole thing differently.

But there is the back story. I would also highly recommend “She’s not the Man I Married” (the sequel) because a wife reading it as well will know that the CD partner is starting to understand her too. Here Betty is as yet undecided, so the fears and unknowns are still there for Helen. But again, it lays the issues right out, wide and open, and everything is said.

And the ending so far? Betty did transition, Helen still is married to her, and her website is thriving. I have a lot to thank Helen (and Betty) for.

“My Husband Betty” delivers by the pound what far too many marriages with crossdressing lack: brutal, frank honesty. Even when many crossdresser’s wives “know” they aren’t given the whole story. Sometimes the crossdressing husband doesn’t even realize some things for him/herself! That’s where “My Husband Betty” is so valuable, and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in the subject.
