Reply To: I think my wife knows

[Beth McGregor]

Hi Grace,

Thankyou so much for your kind reply. When I re-read my post I can see it was written in panic and it isn’t clear that I was actually looking for advice rather than venting. So I really do appreciate your advice.

I at least am now certain she knows because she has been back in to the suitacse and refolded all of my clothes and repacked the suitacse more efficiently. I froze to the spot when I saw this. I had begun to convince myself that it was all coincidence.

I think I am now supposed to talk to her about it but instead am looking for a tiny deserted island in the Pacific where I can go and hide! 🙂

I’m sad that you are having a tough time with your family at the moment. This news is difficult for loved ones to hear. I guess they may feel to an extent misled and worried they are losing the you  they knew. I hope and pray things improve for you and that shock gives way to acceptance and understaning. We do need to be able to get to a point were we can transition without barriers so that we can live authentically as the people we are. I know eventually the trans revelation and the consequences that follow are usually inevitable.

I don’t think I can face coming all the way out though. I’m not as brave as you have been. I feel like I can maybe talk to her about how I enjoy wearing feminine clothes and leave it at that. I know I’m a wimp.

Please feel free to message me if you need to chat or vent. I’m here for you.

Thanks again sweetie.

 

Love
