Hello from Amber

Hello everyone, my name is Amber. I've always been fascinated with the lifestyle but never really tried it before until certain life threatening events and them decided I should fulfill something I was always very curious about. I love dressing up, but unfortunately when I informed my wife of this side of me she is very concerned at best. She has let me use her clothes and make-up but was very upset the whole time. So far we spent one day together with me dressed up, but at the end of the day she said she was uncomfortable. I would like to be able to be dressed up all day after work, but she is very against this. I think I look pretty good, but she is constantly worried someone will see through it, even if its just me going out in the backyard to let the dogs outside. I know this isn't a fully body picture but I'm in shape and think my butt looks very good in some tight jeans. What does everyone else think about my look so far? I'm hoping this picture posts, I'm doing this on my new tablet and its a little weird for me to use so far hahaha. If it doesn't work it is my profile picture... If that is working too hahaha.

You're in the right place..You can happily discuss and share these things here

Welcome, Amber.
Sounds like you've got a lot to talk about (e.g. your wife's response).

Yeah I've been sensitive to the fact she doesn't like me dressing. So I keep it to when I have the house to myself. It only sucks because she is a stay at home wife so that is not very often. I just wish there was a way to get through to her that this is something I want to do and it has nothing to do with any sexual orientation issues. Its just a way of feeling attractive in a different way.

Hello Amber,

to the forum, you will not find a better place to air your thoughts and ask questions, all the info you require is available either in existing posts or by asking and someone will have the answer.
I do not think you can post photos yet.
Hugs and kisses
Joanne

I got a photo posted in the gallery. I was trying to link it in to here but getting too frustrated

If you don't mind going and checking me out in the gallery and telling me what you think I would be very appreciative, but if not I understand. It should just be under Amber Hughes, I don't know though, I've realized how embarrassingly technology un-savy I am today.

I'm just wondering what the life-threatening events were - like if you could say some more about them (not be intrusive or anything

).

Let's just say I work in a very hazardous occupation and in a very dangerous specialty within that occupation. I just got tired of not exploring that side of myself when any day could have been my last.

Hi Amber,

to the forum, there is a ton of great girls here with lots of help and support. Take your time this affects you're wife as much as yourself. Very nice pic in the gallery, hope to chat sometime. Ithink us crossdressers are so special but we need to take it slow and respect everybody elses feelings and opinions. looking forward to chatting

The reason I asked was I felt there was something not there in the picture you gave of your wife's response to the CDing:
when I informed my wife of this side of me she is very concerned at best. She has let me use her clothes and make-up but was very upset the whole time. So far we spent one day together with me dressed up, but at the end of the day she said she was uncomfortable. I would like to be able to be dressed up all day after work, but she is very against this. I think I look pretty good, but she is constantly worried someone will see through it...
There's an odd thing.
I've brought out the emotional reactions she has to you CDing. The odd thing is that you say you decided to try CDing because of the mortally dangerous nature of your job. But this set of reactions are the sort of thing you might expect her to have to the
job rather than the CDing.
