    Hello All,
    Well here I am trying to tell someone about all of these pent up, long standing desires. And imagine, I am in my 60's. I can't begin to express how long and badly I have wanted (needed) a man to be more than friends. Right now I am opening up to you and not my family or friends but this is a start.

    In the last year I have become more and more obsessed with my wife's clothing. I want to wear her sexiest outfits. I am ready to shave my beard just to see how I look made up. I am sure that it would not turn out well as I don't see myself as attractive but would love to feel the lipstick and eye shadow.

    I have always though of myself as a bit perverse but if I can't open up here where can I?

    Hugs

    I hate to go to bed without anyone saying hi so I guess I will send myself a welcome note.

    Hi, and welcome to EC!

    There's absolutely nothing wrong with channeling your inner diva! :slight_smile: Though... you might get odd responses if anyone sees you doing it, it's great that you're getting in touch with yourself. And registering here and talking about what you're feeling is a great first step in understanding yourself and giving voice to that part of yourself that you've never felt comfortable owning.

    I hope you'll stick around and contribute to the community, talk about what's going on for you, and maybe comment on what's happening with others as well. I think you'll find the community to be a great way to help you come to terms with what you're feeling.

    Hi Myturn! Welcome so much to EC! (*hug*) Sorry it took us a bit to welcome you, but everyone here is great, so I know you'll meet tons of people & make friends here in no time! (&&&)

    Congrats on finding EC, it really is a wonderful place! I say go for it! Dress up, indulge yourself & see how you feel with everything! Dont get hung up too much on what you look like, just concentrate on how everything makes you feel! If youre all good with dressing up & feeling beautiful, go for it & that's all that's important! Perhaps if you Google around a bit, you might even be able to find like-minded people in your area that you can connect with as well, which may be helpful too! And never worry, you can ALWAYS open up to us here on EC! :slight_smile:

    Hi there and welcome to Empty Closets! You have already taken a very difficult step: starting to open up and (perhaps) starting also to come to terms with it all. Congratulations! This is something to be proud off.

    Welcome aboard. :slight_smile:

    Hi there. Older (57) married guy here that came out to wife and family starting last June. It's a rough and rocky road but you came to the right place. So.......WELCOME to EC. I think you will find lots of support here. Just a lot of caring people in the same boat.
