I just came out to my wife today as a crossdresser. I have been off and on dressing for about 35ish years, and I'm super happy to be out finally! I have many pictures of myself as Shelly, and I hope she can help me make many more.

@shelly327 Hey Michelle, welcome to CDH. Congratulations on joining the best CD resource there is. Oh, and on coming out to your wife. That's a big brave step honey. We all send our best wishes that your wife takes the big reveal positively. Loads of the girls here are out to their wives, and out in public. Others have a DADT relationship. And lots, myself included, are firmly in the closet. You'll find nothing but friendship, support and acceptance here. Do let us know how things go for you. I've got my fingers crossed. Oh, and thank you for introducing yourself with so many photos. Some gorgeous looks there girl. 

Hugs, Chrissie xx.

@chrisfp99 thank you so much! Its going so so with my wife. She did say she wants to help me get dressed and do my makeup to see if she understands it better. I'm really hoping she accepts this new change and we can start a life that includes me as Shelly.

Hi Michelle,

Welcome to CDH.

Well done on coming out to your wife. It’s great to hear that she’s somewhat supportive. 
As Chrissie has said already, there are girls with all levels of acceptance here.
We’ll be interested to read about how things progress.

Lucy

Congratulations, Shelly! Firstly on opening up to your wife, we all know how scary that is and it's great that she's taking it well. 

Secondly, on finding and joining us in this amazing community! You've already had a few welcomes and, you'll very quickly see how truly warm and friendly everyone is.

It's great for us too, to be able to share in this next stage of your journey, we love to hear about each other's experiences. Like the others, I hope to see you on the forums.

If there's anything you need or questions you have, just shout, we'll do our best.

Welcome to the family 😊!

@shelly327 Welcome to CDH, Michelle!

Since your wife seems to be seriously interested in helping you, let her know that there is a private sub-forum for wives and SOs where she can discuss things with others in her position.

@shelly327 Michelle, welcome to CDH.  It is so great that you have come out, especially to your wife.  How did she take it?  It can be a very shocking thing to hear for a wife, but hopefully, like mine, your wife will become accepting and supportive.  Stay positive, stay happy.  Hugs Christine

@christineth Thank you for the welcome, Christine. It was a huge shock to her, and although I've been doing this for years, she never had any idea. Her reaction was somewhat confused, but I feel like she'll come around and be accepting.

@shelly327 welcome. Congratulations! An exciting day. Coming out to your wife and a hurricane. Hope you and your family are both safe. I joined a month or two ago. Some valuable resources and have met some welcoming people. Hope you enjoy your time here. So far I have.

@shelly327 Hi Michelle - welcome and congratulations on the positive outcome of coming out to your wife 🙂

From the sound of it, you have some fabulous girly times together to look forward to. Life becomes suddenly so much less stressful and more colourful when we are able to share this part of our lives with someone special. I came out to my partner in 2021 after 21 years together, and it is one of the smartest things I ever did.

@caroline2k Thank you very much, Caroline. I am super excited and overly relieved to finally be out and hopefully still have my wife by my side. Time will tell if she is as accepting as I hope she'll be, but in the meantime, she seems supportive and positive.

How did your wife take the news? Is she supportive. I'm very lucky to have a supportive wife.

@dazzler she is somewhat supportive. She plans on helping me dress up to see if it helps her understand it better.

Michelle, welcome. Glad to hear your wife is open minded, hope all goes well for you. My wife is somewhat supportive, but there are times when she pushes back, not always roses.

Good luck
