I kissed a guy...

Recommended Posts

And I hate to say I think I liked it...but so confused.

I'm only a straight closeted crossdresser who found some time to walk around the hotel dressed up the other night.

Getting the usual looks from passerbys. I bravely decided to get a drink from the hotel bar and then a man in his 40s wearing an open collar burgundy shirt and black slacks sitting next to me. I try not to turn my head towards him because he's giving me this stare that he wants my number. I get so nervous that I want to leave before I finish my drink. I haven had a long conversation with anyone as Shayla, let alone another man. I could tell he was a little drunk because his group of friends we on the other side of the room. He gets out of his chair to approach me. This time I'm sweating so bad.

I immediately get up and give him a quick look and leave the bar with my cash tab next to my drink.

He says, Hey wait. I want to talk to you. He beats be to the main entrance(cursed these heels) and we have a small conversation. He says that I'm pretty and wearing a nice outfit(which i actually enjoyed)I struggle with my 'voice' because I'm so nervous. He asks me am I from here and I make up a small story on the spot that I'm vacationing. I wanted to make up a boyfriend or a husband but I was so nervous .He wanted my number and I resisted and tried to walk away from him. He showed me pictures of his three kids. He couldn't stop saying how pretty i was and why am i single? He told me to smile. for him and I just gave a sigh did to flatter him back. I said bye to him and walked away. I actually felt great that a man gave me so much attention, but scared at the same time. I could tell he was going to follow me again. I wanted to get back to my room.

I pulled out my card and dropped it. All of a sudden he was right there to pick it up from the floor for me. Before I could reach it, he grabs it and offers to walk me to my room. I said please no because I don't want my other 'girlfriends' to see you with me. He said he was sorry and gave me a hug when our eyes met after the hug, he went in and gave me a kiss right on my mouth. When he opened his mouth to probe his tongue, i wanted to pull back and run but i waited five seconds until his hands were rubbingo the back of my thighs and that's when pushed him away. He wipes my lipstick of his mouth and gives a little smirk. I could tell he was a little drunk even though he smelled like cologne. I didnt want him to think i was that kind of girl. I'm not even that kind of male. I said bye for the second time and walked around again, until I lost him, then I found the elevator back to my room.

Getting kissed by a guy? I know i wanted to experience some things as Shaya but getting kissed on the cheek let alone the lips wouldve been further on my lips. I'm a married straight man and getting kissed as Shayla left me confused wondering why i didn't push him away immediately? What that Shayla wanting more? Does she have needs that I didn't know about?

Hon, a single woman in a hotel in a bar is an easy mark most men assume that's why you are there. Please be careful in the future!

"Straight" is a word with no meaning (opinion)

I think you may have mis-titled this post. You were kissed by a guy. There is a big difference. You were not actively seeking that attention and are new enough to the female role that you weren't ready for the onslaught. This might be a good lesson for you as to why women travel with at least one friend in almost every situation. We may have to learn that the hard way. Fortunately for you you were in a public space.

Now as to the way you felt. I have been kissed by a guy and like you am married and consider myself only attracted to women. I will admit he was a good kisser and it wasn't such a horrible experience at all. i actually enjoyed it if i'm honest. It only goes to show me that many of my feelings may be variable. That being said i prefer my kisses at home. I'm careful when out and since i stopped drinking have had a safer life with no bar scene.

Hugs,

Charlize

Thanks Charlize. Sorry for the title. Trying to play on words from the Katy Perry song. Thanks for sharing that this has happened to you. I really had a heterosexual 'girl' moment after that kiss while twirling my hair and biting my lip. But once back in drab, I didn't enjoy it anymore, just confused. Yes, I prefer kisses at home as well. I'm still getting used to the occasional gawks and flirts. And yes, I'll be careful of my surroundings when dressed up.

Str8 men don't wear dresses! Most people are some sort of Bi and observe the local social norms or taboos. Your lucky you did not

attract the hotel management. If you want to go out alone, go to a safe place like a gay bar. If your on the road a lot, you should try

a gay hotel or B&B. Some are very popular with crossdressers. Stay safe hun.

Clair, my intention is to blend in as a woman in regular everyday public settings, since I'm very passable. Unfortunately it worked too well at the bar. Maybe I'll stay away from bars for a while. Though I'll be more careful next time and probably go with someone. Thanks

In the 80s I dated men that didn't "know" even made the mistake of falling in love with one, it ended badly,

"Be carful what you wish for" is my motto. After 10-15 years in lesbian relationships and 2 marriage proposals from drunk unemployed butch girlfriends I went back to men but way too many years have gone by,since old guys are seeking young stuff anyway. Not dead yet but I have lots of memories to cherish and reflect on

Thanks for posting Shayla,

Lessons learned indeed and it even made me sit up and take note.

Charlize had a very good point:-

...........This might be a good lesson for you as to why women travel with at least one friend in almost every situation........

It reminds me of a conversation I had with a female colleague (before I 'came out') about how, if she was away on business trips, she was always very very careful about having an evening meal and drinks in a hotel whilst on her own. She said that some men just see that as a 'green light' and see it as almost a RIGHT that they have ACCESS to that female on her own. She said that once they've had a few drinks - they become less inhibited and almost forget their responsibilities to their wives and kids. Ewwwww.

Yes, a wake-up call for you indeed (and me too).

Hi Shayla,

Congrats on blending in well as a woman! Yep, guys who are drinking seem to have only one thing on their minds. I remember my first adult guy kiss on the mouth, back before I came out to the general public, it was awkward for me since it felt so normal, if that makes sense. At the time I thought that I was fooling folks into thinking that I was a straight male, but I really didn't even know myself well. Of course nowadays I readily admit to being bi-sexual, but mostly attracted to guys. Heck, a few months back I learned that I was intersex, and never fully male. Who knew? LOL. :)

hugs,

Stephanie

I had to be diagnosed as having an intersex condition before I realized that I didn't have a normal sex life. I just had no sex drive. But I did know what it was like to be aroused. I was turned on by a guy who thought I was gay. It was a great experience but I was afraid to be gay. But I never went into a bar alone before or after transition. During transition I always hung out and went shopping with a group and even then we were harassed by men under the influence. It can be a really scary experience.

      I don't use makeup, but I am starting to become interested in it. It always seems like I'm looking for the next step in my journey, even though I'm non-committal. Makeup could be it.   A hack that my hairdresser suggested to control frizz was to smear a bit of moisturizer over my hair. To paraphrase from one of my favorite childhood books, "Never apply a lot. Just so much, and no more! Never more than a spot! Or something may happen. You never know what!"    One day I applied more than a spot, and not knowing what to do with it, I wiped the excess over my face. It felt nice and I have kept it up since.    It's a start.

      If I'm doing something where I interact with people for any length of time I usually do something with my eyes (mascara, brow fill-in and taming). Bigger events I'll do some makeup but always try to be as subtle as I can, plus I think my freckles make me seem younger to people. I know it's too much when my brain suddenly thinks "clown!"

      Good morning    wow, this is what 6 AM looks like not looking out the windows at work. Interesting week of start times 7,8,7,7,4.  ASM is off most of the week.     No coffee this morning, at least not until I get to work.  I’m going to see if no coffee makes a difference in how I feel today, I’ve head a headache for several days now, nothing has helped.  I do realize that stopping coffee cold turkey can bring on caffeine withdrawal headaches so I expect today to be no better.  But I’m hoping for tomorrow.  Today is just to see what if any affect it has on my throat.    time to fix my hair and walk the dog before I motor across the road.  Cherri o .   keep a stiff upper lip and all that stuff.  (Sorry, nothing the least bit funny coming to mind this morning, you’ll have to entertain yourself today}

      DON’T ADD JUDGEMENT TO YOUR FEELINGS by Olga Lacroix | Anxiety relief, Happiness, Mindfulness I’m sitting here drinking my favorite coffee, and as I enjoy this moment I cannot wait to share with you the thoughts that are in my head.  Recently, I have talked about how circumstances don’t determine your future. And somewhere along the line, I wanted to explore a little bit more about our thought process. How we discourage ourselves so often from our goals and from the things that we want, because we have beliefs that go against what we want. In this episode, I want to talk about how it’s important for us to learn not to judge our feelings. Aside from being a Life Coach, I’m also a Certified Mindfulness Instructor. And non-judgement is one of the learnings that I enjoy understanding, applying, and teaching. WHY BEING JUDGEMENTAL IS HARMFUL Sometimes it’s so difficult to be non-judgmental, especially if it’s coming from a bad experience or emotions. For example, a client of mine just had a pregnancy loss and a part of her coping mechanism is to hate or be indifferent to people who have babies.  It’s her way of processing the grief and protecting herself from anger and sadness. And recently someone close to her had a baby. She wanted to feel excited for that person but somehow her bad experience was holding her back. Like her, a lot of people cope this way. Some people try to hide their feelings and emotions just because they’ve already judged them as maybe improper or inappropriate emotions. And what happens is, those emotions stay inside them longer, they don’t get to process their emotions, and it becomes more painful. HOW NOT TO BE JUDGEMENTAL When we judge our feelings as bad, our natural response is to avoid it. We go through crazy lengths just to avoid the feeling, but by avoiding it we’re actually growing it. So what do we do? Do not judge the emotion, allow yourself to feel the negative emotions. Don’t mask it, instead embrace it.  DON’T IDENTIFY WITH YOUR EMOTIONS For someone like me who experienced Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD, a common side effect is anxiety. I have learned that the more I try to repel the anxious thoughts, the stronger they feel in my body, and the longer they stay. But when I’m courageous enough, and I say to the feeling, I’m not gonna judge you for existing, you’re just a feeling. I tell myself something neutral. There is anxiety, not I am anxious. Separate yourself from the feeling. The feeling is not you and it’s just temporary. FINDING THE BALANCE Now when the feeling is good and positive, we jump into attachment, wanting that feeling to linger longer and even forever. But according to Buddha, that’s when the suffering begins, when you want to make something last forever, and when you’re not ready to understand and accept the impermanence of emotions. Find the balance in your emotions. Learn to separate yourself from the emotion. Feel the emotions whether they’re good or bad, but don’t dwell in it. It’s an emotion that we need to feel, process, and eventually let go. Through this, we will achieve a healthier mind. STEPS TO FREE YOURSELF FROM JUDGEMENT The first step is awareness. Being aware of the emotion and how you have judged it. This step will allow you to think of the next step to free yourself from judgement. Step two is processing your emotion in neutrality. Go to a quiet place, close your eyes, and meditate. Bring all of your senses, all of your awareness to the feeling. Give it attention and wait for it to dissipate.  The last step is to pay attention to the lesson. Become curious and think about what this emotion is teaching you, what wisdom can you take from it. Be an observer of your emotions. You need to react, you need to fix them, change them, modify them, you just need to notice them. And then you need to open the space, let them be felt. These are moments of growth, these are moments of transformation. And most importantly, these are moments where we allow the emotion to be processed. Reset Your Mindset is opening in January of 2022.

      I just want to mention, where I live there are tons of cis guys your height or shorter. Among them is my dad and one of my professors (who are well over 17 y/o lol), and I honestly don't think twice about it. Every time I go to the grocery store I see at least 4 different guys around that height too. I don't think your height will be an issue towards passing long-term. (Well, maybe it's different in your region, but just wanted to throw in my 2 cents.)   I can relate to the hands thing though. If I ever hold something in front of the camera to take a photo of it, I feel like I have to crop my hands out so they don't "out" me. (I admit that that's silly.)
