Hi there! I'm Jenn from Maine. My significant other told me a few months ago that he is a crossdresser. I guess I'm here because I'm not sure what to do now and where we go from here. A big part of me is in denial and I'm not sure how to get beyond that. Any suggestions or support would be very much appreciated. :)

Hello Jenn,

Welcome to Laura's Playground. I can understand your feelings of denial. It's a natural reaction that most SO's have on learning such news. You've got to ask yourself, is this something I can live with or is this something you feel is so disgusting that you can not live with it. If you feel that you can not live with this, it might be better if you walk away now before things get said and done that cause nothing but heartache. If you think that maybe you can come to accept this, you should sit down and talk with your SO. Find out what his intentions are. What does he want to do. How far does he intend to go with cross dressing. Tell him your thoughts and feelings. Compromise is going to be the name of the game. It's a situation of give and take and usually it turns out to be more give than take. I found this out in my own situation. Don't make any hasty decisions. Take your time and hopefully, you'll be able to work things out. It might be helpful to check out the Partners/SO of Transsexuals Transgender Forums. You might be able to get some ideas from what others have gone through. Good luck.

MaryEllen :)

MaryEllen,

Thanks for the response and for being so understanding. I will check out the Partners/SO forums. I am not disgusted by the crossdressing at all and want to be able to accept it but I'm not quite at that point yet. My SO and I have done a lot of talking and he assures me that all he wants is to be able to crossdress once in awhile and doesn't want to do it all the time and does not want to pursue surgery. I don't want to make any hasty decisions and want to do the research and educate myself to figure out what this all means and how it will impact me and my SO. Thanks again for the response. it was helpful to know that my denial is a normal part of the process.

      Good morning and congratulations @MirandaBon getting your ears pierced. This opens up a new line of jewelry to buy and collect.    @KymmieLits ashamed that any employee would ever to post a sign like this.    Well Parker Von Schwinegruber not only got me up early, we enjoyed our first cup of coffee on the patio before the sun was up. Oh it was daylight but just barely. The second cup of coffee was in the recliner, and now I’m pinned here and need someone to pour my third cup.    It’s a dog’s life… Eat, play, go potty and sleep.

      Thanks so much @Vidanjali,@Ivy, and @DonkeySocks She's stable now and going home Monday after tests and some observation time. So that's a positive relief.

      Trump-linked dark-money group spent $90m on racist and transphobic ads in 2022, records show. Citizens for Sanity was one of top political spenders last election cycle and is back for 2024 with more extreme messaging, https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/may/17/trump-citizens-sanity-election-ads

      What are you listening to today?

      I adore the Bee Gees. There's no way that I could link all their great songs in the above post. To me though, this song of theirs is head and shoulders above everything else:

      The Gibb brothers were awesome individually, as a group, or in collaboration.

      Being Bi-gender causes such issues with mirrors

      By Mirrabooka · Posted

      My long hair is the single most important physical feature of my body which confirms the presence of my inner woman.   That said @SS, I am the 'other' sort of bi-gender. I am of the simultaneous type. I do not flip-flop between girl days and boy days either mentally or through presentation. For me, I am both primary genders at the same time, and the compromise is made through an androgynous presentation. When I look in the mirror, I can see either, but I am happy to admit that when I see a woman, I am happier.

      Quite unexpected!   I had my weekly conversation with my father last night and he mentioned something he did that caught me totally off guard.  He was browsing garage sales and came across a nice blond wig, he decided to buy it and his wife was quite perplexed he said.  They had a dinner date with a couple that are friends since high school, and my father went dressed as a woman (with his wife's assistance). He said he did it as a "joke", but spent the entire evening dressed.

      What are you wearing today?

      By Mirrabooka · Posted

      Thank you! So do I! Although I'm proud of what it portrays, I don't wear it often because I think it could be taken as being a bit provocative. One part of me says look at me, I'm proud to be on the rainbow and the other part says pull your head in, you're asking for trouble.   I do have a more subtle pride t-shirt that I visibly wear more often, here is a representation of it: "Moon phase rainbow" V-Neck T-Shirt by secretmagic | Redbubble
