I am happily married to a loving and supportive wife so I'm not interested in meeting anyone for a relationship. I'm not on hormones or any other feminine enhancers.

I started dressing in women's clothing when I was very young maybe 5 or 6 years old. One of my earliest memories was playing hide and seek in my parents closet and finding some of my mother's shoes and pantyhose. From then on it just always seems like it was there.

I'd pay extra attention if I saw men dressing up like women in TV shows or movies wishing I could do that.

Other times I'd sneak into my mom's or sisters closets when I got home from school before anyone else came home and fortunately was never caught. I was able to keep my secret well hidden for several more years.

This went on throughout my teenage years to the point my mother's clothes no longer fit. I had girlfriends who would want to put mascara on my large eyelashes and I would outwardly say no but inside I really wanted to.

It wasn't until my mid 20s after I started dating my current wife that my interest peaked in dressing again during the mid 1990s. My wife and I had a computer and a quick look on the internet told me I was not alone in my desire to dress in women's clothing.

An opportunity to finally get fully dressed came about for Halloween 1996. We were invited to a party and went to look for costumes. I found a french maid outfit and a wig and asked my wife if this would be a good costume for me and she thought it would be fun!

I bought the costume, wig and we went to Payless to find some heels to go with it. We went to the party and it felt amazing 💕

A few weeks later before I went to work in the afternoon if take some time before hand and dress up in any of her clothes that would fit me. I did my makeup, put on her dress, do my nails and feel so wonderful. As I was coming out of the bedroom I saw her come around the corner of the stairs and ask with a big smile on her face, what are you doing?

Uh oh, I was busted! She wasn't upset and I explained to her it was something I always wanted to do.

For the next year or so I would dress up around the house while she was home and she didn't seem to mind at all.

The beginning of 1998 brought a lot of changes to our lives. We married the previous summer and after the loss of a job in October we decided to move from Ohio to Arizona.

The next year was really rough for us financially and relationship wise. After not dressing for awhile and my first purge, I got the urge to dress again (the urges never go away but sometimes you can hold them off for a while) after the purchase of a wig and borrowing her makeup I had an enjoyable day of dressing. She came home from work and we had plans to go out for dinner and when she go in her lipstick she had seen that I used it and then the fireworks started!

You ruined my lipstick, stay out of my stuff. At the time I took that as she didn't like my dressing up more than I was using her expensive lipstick and we didn't have a lot of money. From that point on till sometime in 2007 I hid all my dressing from her.

This was the darkest period of my time as Amber. These years 1998-2007 were full of highs and lows with the lows being purges.

Sometimes I would order wigs, clothes, shoes makeup online, have it shipped to a secret PO box and dress up once or twice then throw it away. I always convinced myself I was done and this was the last time I would dress up or buy anything. At times I would get the urge a few hours after I threw everything out, dig it out of the trash and dress up again. So many of us have been through this vicious cycle of guilt, shame and hatred towards our feminine sides.

Sometime in 2007 I thought I was done, put all my items in the backyard fire pit and burned it. I wanted to put an end to this once and for all, no getting it out after it was burned. And for several years I thought it did.......

From 2007-December of 2017 I didn't dress at all. Didn't try on any of my wife's clothes, didn't buy any wigs, nothing.

I had urges but always talked myself out of them because I was certain it would just end in a purge so all my urges were quelled with a little time to think rational about it. It would be a waste of money too, a few hundred dollars down the drain so I convinced myself it wasn't worth it.

As my wife and I were Christmas shopping in 2017 at the local mall there was someone who caught my attention.

A crossdresser was shopping right by us and I was immediately intrigued and envious. So many thoughts came rushing to my head. What a thrill and excitement it must be to go out in public dressed.

For the next few days it's all I thought about and I devised a plan. I figured it would end in a purge so I had the idea of setting a time limit of how long before I'd let myself purge and a budget so I wouldn't waste a lot of money.

Within a few days I enacted my plan, drove to a local wig shop and purchased a wig. I then went to Walmart and bought one of those cheap holiday makeup gift sets and found a dress and threw it in the cart. A quick stop and $15 at Payless and I now had some heels.

I went home and started getting dressed. It was like a dream come true.

I looked horrible on the outside but felt like a princess on the inside. Amber was back!

Getting dressed up was all I could think about and I spent almost all my days off doing it. I started posting pictures to Reddit and received a lot of positive feedback. I used all my down time at work to research makeup and technique. Everytime I did my makeup it looked better than the last time. I purchased another wig and more clothes. And then it hit me......this doesn't have to go away. How can I make it so I never purge again?

I knew the answer but was afraid to follow through with it. I couldn't keep this a secret anymore and had to tell my wife.

So many thoughts went through my head, the last time I dressed in front of her was almost 20 years ago and she got mad because I was using her makeup. Would she be upset, would she divorce me? would she think I was less of a man? This wasn't an easy choice but it was the right one. Now, I just needed to figure out how to tell her

One night in January 2018 I thought I was going to have the courage to do so and I didn't. I had a few too many drinks and decided it wasn't the best night to share with her. But I had to share with someone because drunk me thought it was the right thing to do.

I texted one of my best friends and coworkers who I trust more than anyone and after chatting for a bit I sent her a few pictures. At first she didn't believe me. She was shocked because she had no clue but was super supportive. Of course she asked if my wife knew and I said no. Over the next few weeks we talked about it at length and she convinced me to do it sooner rather than later.

That day was February 18th, 2018. My wife and I were laying in bed playing with our phones. I was trying to figure out a way to bring it up but couldn't muster up the nerve. Then I decided to text her two pictures of me, one brunette and one blonde. I hit send and it seemed like an eternity before I got a response (it was about a minute) she turned to me and said, you look better as a brunette than a blonde!

She wasn't upset but she was surprised and as always her first concern was how much money was I spending 😂. She also said she'd love me no matter what.

Bottom line is that she knew, she wasn't too upset and she wasn't going to divorce me over it.

While she's not 100% on board with it she's probably 85-90 percent okay with it and I'll take it!

That brings me to my current timeline and situation. I started my Flickr account as a place to store all of Amber's pictures because I had purged everything previous to 2017 except two Halloween pics from 1996.

Of all the things I purged not having any pictures from those times hurt the most. I told myself that would never happen again.

As I write this Amber has over 15k pictures and videos as a memory of the past three and a half years. Plus I swore again never to purge and feel comfortable with who I am.

Everything was looking good, the wife knew and that lifted a huge weight off of me but the euphoria wouldn't last long for Amber as a health issue that was bad at first ended up as a happy ending and a huge change to my looks.

💕💕 To be continued 💕💕

To me crossdressing is a form of art and with it you can transform yourself into a beautiful living piece.

Please enjoy my pics and don't leave rude or vulgar comments. Compliments are always appreciated and don't hesitate to send me a message. Guys, don't bother, I'm happily married to a wonderful and accepting wife.

I like everything girly from makeup to doing my nails and wearing sexy dresses and skirts and even some casual feminine looks.

I'm not into or interested in the kinky or fetish side of crossdressing. I will not follow pages of men or anything with nudity or sexual content.

I'm not looking for others to accept me I've already accepted who I am and I'm very happy with that and we can not expect others to accept us for who we are if you don't learn to love yourself first. Once you figure this out you'll see others opinions really don't matter.
