Feeling A Bit Depressed


Guest Sandy

Hi everyone....Just want to air out a little. I came out to my wife about two and a half years ago. [we have been married almost 30 years] She accepted who I am, but has completly not wanted to talk about it. I keep my clothes in the closet, out of sight, towards the end. The only time I can dress is if I get home for work early and my daughter is taking a nap. [Older daughter 25yrs] She has seen me a couple of times and has even told me that I look nice. I so wish I could talk with my wife some more. I kept this a secret for so long that I thought I would explode. Now that I have told her and now that we still can't talk about it. I'm feeling as depressed as when it was a secret. When she gets home and with a cry of relief,she removes her bra. With a cry of relief,I wish I could put one on. I daydream all the time about us going shopping and hope

just one time she would ask me if she could help me pick out something. I so want her to understand that I can be all man, because the best part of my life is her. But I have that other person that wants to come out more and more. I'm so much more relaxed when I dress as Sandy. Everyone says to take it slow, sometimes I feel like I'm going backwards. Why does life have to be so confusing?

Thanks for listening

Sandy

Sandy,

You and I have a few things in common. I have been married for 29 years, we have two daughters, but, I am in the closet. I know my wife will be just like yours if I come out.

Here's what I do:

Back in the 60"s there was a song "Secret Agent Man" I think it was sang by Johnny Rivers. One verse said "they've given me a number and taken away my name. Secret agent man, secret agent man."

I am just that, oo secret agent man.

I keep my femme clothes locked up in my mechanics boxes and am planning on expanding by purchasing an new gun cabinet and keep every thing under lock and key. Secret agent man.

Maybe you might want to think about this awhile and see if something like this could help you out. ?

Thanks for responding Steveanna....Agent man won't work. I already came out of the closet to her. My frustration is that I want it to go much further and its like I haven't gone any further than when I told her 2 and a half years ago. I tried to be honest, I thought that was the right thing to do. Now I don't know anymore.

Sandy,

I think you need to create a secret about this, and let her think you have given up doing your femme side. Without a doubt, she does not want to accept what you have shared with her. I tell you the truth, I have the same situation. If you try secret agent man style, you will be more free, less doubts,and gain esteem. Our wives will do anything to stop our CD activity. The sad thing is, I can't even remember the last time my wife has even been in a dress. She usually is in pant suits. Kinda like Hillary Clinton. It's not lying, no more than being a real life agent, they too have to protect identity and secrets. I know my wife doesn't tell me everything that goes on in her days at the offices, etc.

Don't give in or up.

Brothers in America.

      I do the best I can to 'Pass' and I think I have become better at feminizing my appearance ... But, I have also come to realize that no matter how much I feel I pass, it's more up to the individual I interact with than with my efforts and appearance. If they are self-aware humans they will see me as I truly am ... and then I will receive a compliment, or a 'Ma'am', or just a friendly smile.  That's all I really need.

      In my case, at almost 9 months, most changes have been very subtle. I was 60 when I started, and overweight. Also, I am not very observant when it comes to changes. In the last 3 months I have been on T blockers and breast growth have definitely started having suffered irregular "ouchies", but at the same time I have been slowly losing fat, so Bust measurements have not changed. What has changed in the density, I can feel a difference. Face wise the skin feels softer, and my lashes seem to be more visible. Head hair regrowth is a maybe- maybe not situation.  I do have to select men's clothing carefully to camouflage the change in breast shape. I guess I'm still at the not passable as a female stage especially with no makeup. I'm also over 6 foot and well over 100kgs which I guess is problematic to start with!   Hope this helps somewhat   Kate .

      I started feminizing HRT about 6-7 weeks ago. I began with what I called the beginner's patch. I immediately found myself wanting to level up to the next dose and did that this week (yay!). So far, I am enjoying the ride.   I've read everything I can find on this topic. For the HRT vets on here, what is reasonable to expect in terms of physical changes for someone starting in their 50s? I know "your mileage may vary." I guess I am curious if I stay on my current trajectory for six months, a year, multiple years, how pronounced will the physical changes be? Will I reach a point where it is totally obvious or will I land in a "middle zone" somewhere in which I could pass either way?   Thanks! Like I said I am enjoying the ride so far and always curious to know others' experiences. Not sure anyone else in my life will be excited about these moves I am making, but I have been over that in many places on here already so need to rehash... Love and blessings to all!   Easy

      Being admitted into the hospital after a long ER visit. I started passing lots of blood and they are keeping me for observation.    Nurse came in to see about a condom catheter, that of course doesn't work on me. 🤣   She said, "I guess we will use incontinence supplies on you."

      Yeah.  I think this is what it is about.  Since they are not transgender, nobody else could possibly be either.  I'm not sure that a cisgender person can understand being transgender.  But that hardly means that a transgender person's experience is not real - just because it is not theirs. Why is a transgendered person's experience not valid, while a cisgendered person's is?  Why should it be the cisgendered person that decides? Nobody is forcing a cis person to transition.  What I do for myself is my own business.

      @maebe   It sounds exciting.  I hope all goes well.   Abby

      I've been thinking it is a matter of belief.  They simply do not believe someone can validly be transgender and should not be allowed to practice their beliefs, but should be forced to practice their belief, that is, that there is no such thing as transgender and it is all mental illness/sin/hormonal imbalance.

      I am really kind of sick of everybody who is not transgender deciding on what we need and do not need in the way of procedures. They act like all of this is play acting, and we can just apply cosmetics to our entire body. It might be refreshing if someone asked us directly what services we need in order to transition. I could say more as I am frustrated, but I do not want to violate the TOS.

      I discovered her "Whipping Girl" when my egg first cracked.  It helped me understand some things.
