      Hi, pleased to be here at last, and nervous with it.

      I’ve been in close touch with personal feminine feelings since I was very small. Years of denial, years of yearning, just aching to present as female, but always without the courage to do so. I told my first wife (after a bit too much Pinot Grigot for both of us) about my inclination, my desire, and I was stunned when she went as far to accept it, to take me shopping, buying me – on our first trip – skirts and silky underwear. She even had the front to hold up a pair of French knickers in one shop, and ask out loud “do you think she will like these?” and my legs almost gave way. We’d got to that point because I’d had to confess to to her after she found  a lipstick of hers in my pocket, and detected a streak of it on my lips. Plus the less obvious evidence, like a pair of stretched stockings here and there, and a broken zip on one of her skirts, which nobody but her or me could have caused. It all formed pictures which an intelligent woman would notice. No passing it off on ‘another woman’. Also, maybe I even said things in my sleep. I will never know. But she accepted it, and she let me dress, in front of her, and in our bed. We eventually fell out, but not over that. The years passed. Like all those stories we’ve all heard and sympathised with, I still want to to wake up as a woman, as much as I want to go to bed as one, but of course it never happens. Tragic, if only for me and those who feel the same. I know that ‘tragic’ is too strong a word, but when I want to wear a dress, and can’t, then yes, it feels like that in the moment. But bittersweet, certainly, almost like mourning a lost love who also loved me, but couldn’t live with me. The comforting thought – as well as the annoying one – is that I know the desire to walk down the street in a gorgeous dress and heels will never go away. I want to do that, tomorrow; the thought is one of endless fascination and pleasure, and will never leave me. I just wish it could happen, but I’ve never had the nerve to try. Years of dressing, both wistful when I can’t, and erotically charged when I can. I still find it weird to say that otherwise, I’m happy to be male. Life is life.

      Julie Riley.

      Hi Julie
      Welcome to CdH from another UK girl living in the South West.
      Secret crossdresser but enjoy dressing especially in a skirt.
      Don’t get the opportunity to dress very often but underdress most days.
      Purged many times but the urge and desire never go away.
      Enjoy the site.
      Love
      Helena

      The encouragement from all of you is quite moving. I know we’re in a bubble, but that doesn’t detract from the kindness of every girl, and the feeling that even people whom you don’t know can make you feel good. Thank you, all. It’s wonderful!

      Welcome Julie. Your intro is so well thought out and articulated that I actually enjoyed reading it. Really well expressed.

    • #690903

      Hello Julie welcome to CDH thanks for sharing your informative and thoughtful intro about who you are. I am happy you found us and made the step to become part of a family that is welcoming, understanding, compassionate, and supportive. While we are all similar and have many of the same desires we all differ on our goals or public expression and or level of personal experiences. I encourage you to explore the many forums, topics, polls and member biographies found here as there are a wide range of members all over the spectrum of feminine expression or those on the path to transition and those that have. There are also links to websites that have products and services that may help you on your own personal path of acceptance and self expression. Ultimately it is a place home or world were you can feel feel comfortable and confident in who you are as being who you truly are as your authentic self of you being a man, a woman, or expressing your feminine desires feelings and or qualities. Glad you are here and have made a choice to accept this part of yourself and you are sharing a part of your authentic self it ultimately lifts some of the burden that you may be feeling which many of us have carried what seems like a lifetime I am glad you have made the step. Welcome!

      Hugs April

      Hello Julie Riley.  nice story loved reading it. wish my wife would take me out shopping for a dress or skirt and ask if i would look good in this out fir and even buy me things. but i do all the buying and wear them more then she does. wife knows and lets me dress up when our last adult child is at work for 4 to 8 hours. so, i dress up, but she will not see me and sit in same room as her not even help with makeup, she has seen me dressed up and getting dressed up so what is the deal with that.  well enjoy being the real woman you should have been just like me. i have been cross dressing for many years on and off and now it’s more on then off i even under dress and go out
