Hello everyone, I am happy I found this website because it looks like the kind of place I can open up a bit on and explain my circumstances and ask advice.
Here goes...
I am a 49 year old widow, 2 years widowed, I am now with a great guy, we now live together, get along great. When I first met him within the first week as dating, he told me that he has in the past cross dressed, i.e. likes to wear pink frilly stuff. He has almost always done it in privacy and deep down he feels that he should have been born a girl. He is a masculaine guy, handy at home and mechanical, etc... but sometimes when in bed he zones into his own thing and fantasizes about bi-sexual / queer stuff. I don't have a problem with this, everyone is entitled to what turns them on, and at the end of the day, we do well in bed together.
He has told me that if I want to be in an open relationship (he doesn't want to venture out but he feels that he cannot always be there fore me sexually) that he would have no problem with this as he is not a jealous type of person. We have a solid loving relationship and at first I was upset with this talk as I felt he was pushing me away. After we talked long and hard I understand where he is coming from, and I am slowly warming up to this idea but I don't know if I can make the plunge. The thought of it turns me on but I don't know how I would feel after as this is all new to me. Bottom line we want and will stay with each other.
Any advice?
