OK I am stepping out and trying this.

Glad you are here. I think I know how you feel. I just signed up a few days ago and am trying to put on a brave face and offer encouragement, but inside I'm shaking to death.  That all alone feeling and hoping to reach out and that people won't think I'm weird.  Maybe this time it is okay and we have found a place to be us.

to the both of you welcome.   its nice that your 2nd wife is supportive on your x dressing. wish mine was.  she knows but will not see or help me with make up. but she does sneak to see what i ma wearing. now i don;t hide it from her i just dress up when 2 kids are not home and walk the house for her to see me and smell my perfume.   try the forums good place to read up on things and join other groups and chat.   i go to all of them to see whats new and how to learn on make up and read others that post.     i love dressing up as a female i feel that i am a female more then male, so why not dress like one. it helps me with depression, stress, and panic attacks.   i have more female cloths then wife does and seem to wear female cloths more then she does. .   to Michelle Bryant and Johnnie Anderson welcome

Hi Michelle and welcome to CDH. You're never to old to find news friends and experiences. So far it looks like you made the right moves and taken the right decision by joining this marvelous sisterhood. Here you will find an awesome bunch of like minded girls sharing the passion for expressing our inner femininity.

I've been crossdressing since my early teens some 40 years ago and have been going out fully dressed on a regular basis for the last five years. Browse around, make yourself at home and feel free to contact me anytime for questions or just some friendly talk with someone understanding your situation.

Thank you all for your responses to my post. So many of you have offered very sincere welcomes and words of encouragement which make me feel as if I am one of the girls. I truly feel that I have found all that I have been seeking for so many years. I know I am going to be a stronger, self assured, and a more confident lady moving forward.

Thank yous; Stephanie, Evelyne, Julie C., Marianne, Gina, Stacy, Julie S. and Lucinda.

Hi girls. My name is Sandra. I am 53 and from Spring Tx. I have been Crossdressing since age 10-12. I love being a girl more than my birth gender. I feel what is on my birth certificate is a typo under where it says sex. I am new to CDH and look forward to making new girlfriends that are like me.

Hi. That is exactly what I feel. Guilt and shame. I have always felt that I never was a real man. No sports growing up. When I got married unable to have children. But the other side of me loved and still loves being a total woman. Dressing, shopping getting manicure and pedicure. I don't even want my male clothes any more but I have to keep them and hide Sandra's clothes in a storage unit. I found CDH and found out that there are girls just like me and I want to make friends with them and talk about our journey to becoming women

I love you girls. Let's go shopping. Remember never pay full price. Always buy on sale so we can buy shoes
