Hello all! I‘ve already introduced myself in the new member forum but wanted to pen my first post finally. I have been a fairly closeted CD since I was little. I am in my later 40’s and it is about dang time I think! I am timid about taking my first public steps out. I know I want to do it… my insides scream for freedom! I know it isn’t about passing or walking perfectly but just want to be free. I have had years of “almost opening the door” and hope your insights and experiences will embolden me to turn that door handle soon! Love love reading all your posts and articles!!
Welcome to our awesome site Erin. I might suggest that you do a forum search for topics like ‘First Time Out’ or ‘First Steps ‘ etc, Those threads, and I know there are dozens of them, will help you build your courage to go that first step for yourself. It may just be out on the front porch, or use the back porch for practice, then the mail box is next, then the world hon.
Remember that we have ALL been right where you are, and have survived to be here today. Just start small and work for more each time. Good luck and keep us informed.

sometimes the good things take time to happen. Reading many of our posts here and the wonderful information certainly help in motivating me in pursuing those dreams. Dreams of venturing out in public is always on many of our ladies minds. And with the advice through our forums confinance we do succeed . Its a wonderful experience to which many have found and a memory all will never to forget. I did it and never to think of it ever happening . So one never knows where our journeys may take us… Best to everyone who’s Poundering the possibility…🌷
It is a big great world out there… once you go out dressed, you will want more and more.
HI Erin I finally did it and ventured out this year a few times now.
I must tell you it is wonderful girlfriend.
Once you have yourself together to where you feel comfortable find a place that you feel comfortable and safe for your first adventure.
I promise you won’t be sorry it is wonderful and remember life is too short, so get out there and experience what life has to offer.
