Hi I'm Sally  -I'm new here but not new to dressing - Have done it since I was a little lad and had no idea what I was doing, and then on and off for my life - I'm 65 now, retired and desperate to dress. I have been buying loads of clothes from vinted  I think I am addicted. Finally, i have a good selection of dresses, skirts, underwear, gym wear etc and just love wearing them all when I can.

I live in Wrexham and am married - Wife is not to keen on me dressing so it tends to get done when she is out 

Anyway, enjoying the journey for now

Hi Sally

Welcome to CDH from another UK girl. I'm in Norfolk 🙂

I've never tried Vinted but spend way too much time on eBay.

You've just joined a very warm and supportive community. It's a great place to make friends, seek advice, chat or just sit back and enjoy everything that's going on.

There's lots to explore. Have fun looking around, and if you need help with anything just ask 🙂

@ellyd22 Realising that I could order something and have it delivered to a local garage/pick up point has been a game changer.  I do still worry that they will deliver it to my door and I have some explaining to do though haha

Welcome to this very supportive group, Sally. 

I am originally from Cheshire myself and North Wales has always been a favourite holiday destination. 

You may well be addicted as is the case with many of us in this group, myself included.

@sallybchester Croeso i'r grwp! Dwi'n dod o Gaerdydd.

For those that are not from Wales... welcome to the group. I'm from Cardiff 🙂

There are not that many Welsh folk on here. I'm a little younger than you are at 57. My wife if supportive and I can be Cerys as much as I like. There are rules, and I do have to look for signs that she would rather me be in male mode, but generally, I'm free do be Cerys.
I have far too many clothes, so I think I'll be on Vinted selling some. Mainly skirts as I have around 200!!!!!!! This is an expensive hobby! 🙂

Unwaith eto, croeso!

Hey Cerys, how on earth did you manage to accumulate that many skirts? And where do you put them all?

I tried putting your Welsh phrases into Google Translate and was pleasantly blown away to see it understands Welsh 😀 .

BTW - I am intrigued to know which super posh Cotswold town you visited ... who knows, I might have bumped into you!

@fembecky Many, many years of charity shopping. I'm slightly addicted to buying skirts. I've cut back a lot. I'm trying to control my addiction, but it's not easy 🙂 I am a lot more selective these days. I'm about to start another cull. Some have to go. This will be the fourth time I've had a cull. This time it will be on Vinted rather than giving them to charity shops. My work contract runs out next month and times will be a bit harder. 

The town was Burford. Very pretty, but not much going on.

Burford - not many miles up the road from me. Pass it very often in my travels but don't go into it too often; looks really pretty when viewed from the top end but very busy and congested high street and parking sometimes difficult. Hope you enjoyed your visit there though. There are some good cafes, pubs and hotels; the walled gardens at the back of a couple of the hotels are beautifully peaceful and we have sometimes dropped in there for a snack lunch on a nice day.

Cwtsh, Rebecca

@dazzler Dioch Cerys, Dw i'n dysgu siarad cymraeg ond yn araf iawn haha I'm using duoolingo - its good but it does not help with speaking practice - Its fantastic to know there are so many other crossdressers in the world and especially others in Wales  and the Uk

@sallybchester . Hello Sally!. I am in a very similar situation as you. It's frustrating. But you dress when you can. I'm from the USA, Kentucky to be exact. I'm 71. We're raising 2 grandkids.  This makes things a little more difficult but I manage. Great texting with you Sally. Jennifer

Hi, Sally and welcome to CDH.

This is definitely the best crossdresser community anywhere, everyone is genuinely warm and friendly.

It's also a safe and supportive group with which to share your journey, there's loads of experience here.

Have fun looking around and just shout if you need anything.

Hi Sally,

Welcome to CDH from another UK girl.

I’m in Staffordshire, so not a million miles away.

You’ll find that your background is quite common here. Lots of us have wives that aren’t too keen on this lifestyle, or just don’t know about it.

We all love to shop for femme gear, and so quite often end up with more clothes than storage space! 

Anyway, have a good look around the site and shout up if you need any help with anything.

Lucy

A day late but welcome to CDH Sally, 

Climb aboard the Good Ship Pink Fog! I see you meet the eligibility requirements. Dressing, a good set of shopping genes and wanting to be among like minded girls. 

I'm from across the Pond in the U.S. down south in Georgia. One of my bucket list items is to visit the U.K. some day. It would be grand to do it enfem. I wish all the best things for you my dear 💓 Fran 🥰

Hi Sally, welcome to CDH from yet another UK girl - in my case down in the Cotswolds.

I won't repeat what others have said, their welcomes spell it all out beautifully. What I would say is that I joined about 4 years ago but was fairly dormant on the site until about 18 months ago; it was then that I really started exploring, interacting and contributing on the site. That really changed things for me, so I would encourage you to get stuck in right away and enjoy this place. Don't languish in the background like I did.

It's great that you are enjoying your crossdressing journey and it's great to have you here. We look forward to hearing more from you.

Hey Sally, that sounds like pretty much the archetypal crossdresser profile. The need to dress does seem to increase with age. Welcome to CDH. Plenty of the girls here will be in your exact situation. Including me. Whilst we can't create opportunities for you to dress we can offer friendship, support and advice. Oh, and loads of fun. You'll find you feel a lot better if you join in the forums and chat. Tell us a bit more about yourself girl. We'd love to know you better.

Hugs, Chrissie xx.

Growing up i used to think the same, I thought i was the only one who liked to wear a bra and knickers instead of men's underwear, and putting on my sister's dresses was great, then the shame set in and i used to hate myself and i questioned my behaviour, but then i found that i wasn't alone there were loads of other people who liked doing the same, I just wish i had the courage to come out to my wife,

@rozalyne I have been through that cycle of obsessive dressing and will buy loads of things and then the guilt hits and I hate myself and ditch all the clothes. I'm more accepting of myself these days but still cycle up and down to a degree.  At the moment, even in my most alpha non acceptance of myself i just cant get rid of my heels and tights :0)

I too wish i could be open and honest with my wife, perhaps one day...

welcome Sally from another UK girl but down south in Dorset, like you I used to dress when my wife was away but now a widower I have recently come out and it is so liberating, however I would rather be in the closet with my wife by my side.

@catherine0918 Thank you - re Vinted:  I love trying to engage the seller in conversation too - I make it obvious the clothes are for a male - I love getting a good reaction but it surprises me how many blank me haha
