I’m new too

Hi Robyn and welcome!  It is a powerful feeling that can rush back in after many years.  I dressed as kid and got caught but stopped until a few years ago. I am now in my late 40s and finally allowing myself to be me.  And being here has helped along this journey as I hope you will find it to be.  Its a great place for support and friendship!

hugs,

Michelle

Hello! Robyn, your story sounds exactly like mine. I find that I just cannot stop, and feel much better when I'm in a bra and panties. I just wish I had some friends to talk to who will understand and not judge. My dream is to one day be able to dress up with some friends and just be myself.

Hi Robyn

Hi Robyn, if you find the secret to “controlling the urge,” don’t tell me!! ‘cause I don’t want to stop either!

My first time was back in the early sixties as a young teen. It was very early in the morning, in our small bathroom. On a whim, I rummaged through the family “dirty clothes” hamper and found one of my mother’s bras. For some unexplained reason, I had the sudden irresistible urge to try to put it on. It took me forever, but after a determined effort, I was able to hook it up from the back. What an exhilarating rush!! Never felt anything like it before in my young life.

Unfortunately, in my blind ecstasy, I’d forgotten that my Dad was an early riser, and suddenly he wanted into the bathroom, which I had locked. He started shaking the door, wanting to know who was taking so long in there!

Blood rushed to my head as I went from ecstasy to panic. I don’t remember details after that, but I remember that somehow I was able to get out of the bra and throw it back into the hamper, and let him into the bathroom.

I went for decades before I ever got the urge again. Grew up, got drafted (for those old enough to remember what that is), discharged, went to college. And then the urge came back, and has not left me since. And now, in my golden years, I find the “urge” to crossdress increasing exponentially.

So, welcome to CDH, Robyn, where I’ve found so many stories, so similar to mine. I had no idea there were so many of us!

Welcome, Miss Robyn.  The beauty of our community is that nobody will ever ask you to stop dressing if it is in your heart.  We’re all on a journey together and having a place to share the experience makes all the difference in the world.

P.S.  I love pantyhose too.   They make me feel safe.  And when combined with a dress in daytime or lingerie at night, make me feel complete.

Soooo many similar stories here Robyn. Join in and share with friends,  the joy and gain some insight into this wonderful mystery.

It's a joy, isn't it? It can go anywhere and be anything you want it to, that's the beauty of it. We're all here in a common thread, but each of us is unique unto themselves. Welcome, I hope the articles give you some insight into it all.

Hi Robyn

Everyone here understands the rush of emotions when getting dressed in the softness of "women's" clothes. Don't be in a rush to discover where this is going. Just slow down and enjoy every moment of it. I hope you have a supportive SO because it makes a world of difference. I am able to dress daily if I wish since my SO loves it. We have a lot of fun with it all. For that I am grateful! I spent so many years living a double life which was the cause of much unhappiness and pain. Getting them information on the subject is a big part of acceptance. "So you're not gay?" was the great enlightenment question. That was her biggest fear and I didn't know it. Once I responded "No, I just like to wear pretty things" all the barriers were knocked down. Another reason she likes it, I think, is that she doesn't have to spend time getting all dolled up when sexy time comes around. I do it, and have a blast!!! 🙂 We have learned together which means we have grown together! Enjoy who you are!!!

Hugs

I told my SO last night, surprised at how accepting she was, needless to say, I feel a bit different today, pretty exciting!

Hi Robyn. Its great to have you join us 🙂 . Cross dressing isn't something that goes away, its always with you! i'm sure you will make many new friends here.

Same story. I have no idea where this is going. Does anyone?

Robyn welcome. Confused well it's certainly understandable. Some stop only to start again and others have at one time explored with a urge only to hid it for many years. But eventually these feelings  always seems to come back and with life being set forth dealing with something not accepted or taboo by society is difficult to handle. Here we try to make sense of why we do this and with help in understanding I'm sure you'll find much of what your looking for. Enjoy your passion and know your with many like yourself being who they want to be. Very nice to meet you and hope you enjoy your stay here with us.  Hugs
