idk Anymore

I'm posting this here because this is the community I have the most anonymity within. It's a community I've been a part of for most of my life and as I rapidly approach my 35th birthday on the 14th of November, I find myself wondering about a lot of things in my life.

I've been going through a lot over the last few years. I'm a bi male and have known this to be the case for years now but I met an amazing woman about 9 yrs ago and though I truly do love her, we've been having some rocky patches on n off; and they've been more frequent lately.

I also am a cross-dresser to a point, which this is the first time I'm admitting it very publicly and I've also had some thoughts & considerations of looking into surgery. Something I've realized since isn't something I'm serious about and though I enjoyed having fake boobs glued on in the past, taking it to that extreme next level isn't something I would go through. Not only because of expenses and such but because it would completely uproot my entire life and turn it upside-down & inside out.

I feel as if the really rocky part of my relationship truly began when I approached my gf with these thoughts and how I felt. She didn't really support me in the manner I thought she would and really, she freaked out about it. To the point that she wanted me to stop cross-dressing all together; popped my forms with scissors and cut up most of the clothes I had along with tossing out my wigs that I also had.

For a while, I was okay with this but I have OCD and when it comes to certain things, I do have impulsive tendencies and I can obsess about certain things too. This includes both my interest in WAM and my interest in cross-dressing and my impulsive buying of various adult toys & items (I have quiet the collection now). It's not ideal for me to hide these things but I mostly do out of shame; though she's aware I have these tendencies, I haven't been forthcoming with acting on my tendencies.

For a while after her blow-up, I had obsessive thoughts about getting implants, especially with billboards advertising such things (mostly for women obviously) in her neighborhood. Eventually these thoughts subsided but my interest in cross-dressing still remains. My girlfriend also knows about my love for WAM and about how my interest in messiness started out as being non-sexual but evolved into being a sexual turn on over the years. She doesn't know that I've had some self-WAM sessions, mostly involving shaving cream after shaving when I've been in the shower.

I'm really just airing out everything that has kind of been pent up and broadcasting this in blog form because of my anonymity within the WAM community. Only a few people know me personally and have even met me and thus it helps me to leave it all out for others to read and maybe even comment on.

My gf has a very controlling personality. If there is something she expects of me, she demands I do it and not only won't take no for an answer, she won't stop pursuing an agreement from me until I do. It is suffocating at times. But after being with someone so long, and fighting to keep her around so hard (there's been times where she's wanted to walk away but I've begged & pleaded her back to my side), you can get tunnel vision in regards to if the relationship is toxic and how toxic it actually is. I'm not saying it is toxic, there are many things about my relationship with her; forcing me to give up my addictions to cigarettes, marijuana & alcohol, supporting me through my layoffs and getting me off my ass looking for a job when we first met all being among the largest... but I've found myself having doubts more often than past years and it hurts. We are god-parents to her two nieces, I've been involved with her family for almost a full decade; gotten close to her brothers & sister in laws on top of her nieces & nephews, not just her.

With all of this said, there are many issues I don't know how to resolve. She's spent so many nights yelling at me for bringing up old topics I over talked about telling me about how she "doesn't care" about one topic or another where I can't come up with any topics to talk about with her anymore. She doesn't want kids, never has and I accepted that years ago, but I've reached that age where I'm now stuck wondering "what if". I always wanted kids growing up and after having an ex-girlfriend supposedly miscarry with what would've been my kid and having 3 goddaughters now, it half makes me wish I had kids of my own. The other half thinks I'm better off so that they won't have to live with the burden of my secrets nor my mental issues (and I do have a few).

The recent changes to my life, the current impulsive needs and wants I've been especially dealing with today are more complicated than any others that came before... I've had a few times where I was involved with multiple partners together at one time but they all were males, never did I have anything like that with a female. Lately, I've been having the want to experience a bukkake, as a sissy, but with a female or two involved as well. I say one or two because strap-ons and other things would be involved as well (I restrain myself to be professional about this post); but I'm committed to my long-time significant other so I don't want to act upon these impulses. I've resolved to limit it only to my toys (Doc Johnson Bust-It & Squirt-It are amazing products; also got to love the Pie-Face games, am I right? Pie-Face Cannon is pretty great especially) and though it's been able to sustain my impulses for now, it's been less than satisfying and unfulfilling. I also recently found out that there is a place in Chicago that not only does BDSM & Femdom but also does Splosh Play as well (www.ChicagoIllusions.com for those who are curious) and now the impulse to find out more regarding sessions has been plaguing me to the point where I contacted them today! It doesn't hurt to inquire and they do couples sessions but if I go forward with trying something like this & hiding it like I have with purchases and spending money on myself, I don't know how I could continue to stay with her after such a betrayal.

One other thing about it is, I miss having a messy session with other people; which I have had both sexual & non-sexual versions of both. But because my significant other knows that I am aroused at most by such things, she doesn't like me playing with others; and she doesn't like messy play because she sees it as "a waste of good food".

Never in my life have I been pulled in so many different directions. And when we first started going out, I was at a point where I was considering getting into music and traveling but decided to roll the dice on my girlfriend to see if we had something worth pursuing... and it has been so far, no doubt in my mind about it. I just worry that I've been settling for the past 9 years and it may not even be something that lasts if she doesn't want it to anymore because of my own bullshit.

Any comments or input would be appreciated. Also, if I had non-sexual messy sessions without her knowing with others who knew it was a turn on for me, do you think it would be considered cheating? (j/k, I still would feel guilty about it and I think that she would view it that way regardless. She literally took my PS4 controller from my house because I was spending time talking to people while playing Fortnite & other games during the day but unable to talk to her on the phone & refuses to give it back until I can start having conversations with her and start working on "fixing" us because I don't care about her enough. I care enough to turn to a community I trust asking for advice about her & our relationship; hell I'd turn to my PSN friends and my very few Twitch followers too for help if I had a controller right now; wait, I did impulsively & secretly buy another one off Amazon w/1 day shipping... *sigh* shit, I need serious help)

Thanks for barring with me and listening. Love you guys!

Hi Screechgod,
I can't really give good relationship advice since I haven't had one last longer than a year, but I am going to try to anyway. Your girlfriend's controlling nature seems to be a double edged sword- helping you break away from addiction and supporting you during unemployment, however she also takes away and destroys your stuff. Does she still see that as helping you or is this something in the relationship that she is making about her? Maybe try a couples counselor just to help get a solid dialogue going. You two have spent 9 years together and she needs to understand that you are not totally happy and that your happiness and feelings need to matter in your relationship.
Hope this helps a bit.

So I did end up calling Chicago Illusions; they sound like an awesomely accommodating place but being a premiere place in Chicago for BDSM and other fetish fantasies, their rates ($300/hr for normal session or $500/hr for Splosh Play) just is out of my budget range *sigh*

As for couples counseling, I'm not even sure how to suggest it or if we can find somewhere in our budget that would be covered by both of our insurances since we work at 2 different places and aren't on one or the other's insurance plans being together but not married. Both of us need individual counseling to help with our own fucked up issues let alone couples to help repair our relationship... I mean I've listed only a number of my own personal issues in this post alone. With this said, thanks for the comment and I'll keep it in mind and see if we can figure out a way. It just might help.

Any additional comments or suggestions are more than welcome, I realized after the fact that this probably should've been a post to the Relationship Advice forum instead of a blog but it felt good to let it all out at least.

On another note, does anyone want to start a gofundme for getting me a Splosh Play session? Lmao, kidding. I don't want any charity; having such a session doesn't matter to me as much anymore knowing how expensive and unnecessary an expense it would be to put $500 towards such a thing... Would be nice to experience but not something I would put on a bucket list just yet; if I was single it might have ended up on there though I'm not gonna lie but not with my current life state. Too many bills and other things to take priority and $500 would be much better spent elsewhere, even if it came from a gofundme

Bottom line, please do not start one either way, I was joking... If you were to start one, put the money towards a charity like St. Jude or some shit like that please. Give to people that need it more than I do.

Oh, dearwhere do I even start? You are certainly right, you do need help. I don't know you or your girlfriend, only what you've stated here. But with that alone, there are enough red flags to stake out a minefield. I'm going to try and break this up.

1.OCD Have you been diagnosed? The term OCD gets thrown around a lot. Obsessing over something is a lot more common than being compelled to follow through with action. It seems like you do in fact follow through. You even acknowledge that this is not smart, and even possibly dangerous. You should see a doctor about this. The good news is that you are self-reflective and critical of yourself. You want to improve.

2.Your relationship with your girlfriend Honestly, your girlfriend sounds like she loves you. I mean TOUGH loves you. She's been with you for 9 years. Maybe she is bossy and controlling, again, just going off what you're saying but a couple things stick out to me. She makes "demands" about you sticking to something or an agreement. Does she do this because it's something you're bad at doing? Do you stick to your word, are you honorable? Do you forget things a lot, do you have ADHD? These are legit concerns.

Also, you mention that she was "forcing" you to give up your addictions to cigarettes, marijuana, and alcohol. You specifically say "addictions". This doesn't sound like she's being a killjoy, it sounds like you have a problem. You are the godfather to two of her nieces. She clearly has some plans for you in the long term.

She has felt overwhelmed at times it seems and even tried to leave but you "begged" for her to stay. I mean, that's not very controlling on her part here. It doesn't fit the narrative.

3.Your relationship with others and your kinks You mentioned your girl throwing out your girly stuff. And this is going to tie into #4. Why is this? This seems weird to me, especially if she knows you're a crossdresser. I think she thinks something more is going on here. You mention that you're bi, but you've been with this woman for 9 years. Have you been exclusive, or are you poly? Are you seeing other people behind her?

4.Your sexuality and gender identity I'm just going to go out there and say it. I think you might be trans and you don't even know it yet. I love boobs too, but I don't ever feel like I want to go out and get implants, I certainly don't obsess over it. Between that and the crossdressing, you MAY be, (and I don't know, just going off what you said) be trans. Do you feel dysphoria in your body? Do you feel like you SHOULD have breasts? Have you ever talked to anyone about this until now? Maybe you should talk to a councilor about it. If anything to help you rule it out so it's one thing you know for sure one way or the other. There are trans women out there with dysphoria that don't seek to have EVERYTHING changed by surgery either. There are a LOT of levels I'm finding out just with my experiences with my ex-wife who is trans.

Ultimately, I think that you and your girl need to see a councilor, or therapist if you want your relationship to work. I think she loves you and that's why she's still with you. But I think you're also driving her nuts. It seems like she feels she can't count on you, or that you have issues with responsibility. Again, I'm going strictly by the narrative you've presented here.

I'm posting this after my girlfriend has found out about my profile but felt the need to respond. I hope she will not take issues with this since I'm also posting this for her benefit as well.

Potatoman-J, I'd like to respond directly to your comments if you don't mind.

"1.OCD Have you been diagnosed? The term OCD gets thrown around a lot. Obsessing over something is a lot more common than being compelled to follow through with action. It seems like you do in fact follow through. You even acknowledge that this is not smart, and even possibly dangerous. You should see a doctor about this. The good news is that you are self-reflective and critical of yourself. You want to improve."
Response: Yes, in the past I was diagnosed with OCD back during my Senior year in high school when my parents felt like my interest in WAM was an obsession after they found out. They wanted me to stop and I refused to, I've been doing so since. When I first was diagnosed, I thought the psychologist was wrong. I was also diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome as well at the time... something that I think now may be slightly more true than it was back then.

2.Your relationship with your girlfriend Honestly, your girlfriend sounds like she loves you. I mean TOUGH loves you. She's been with you for 9 years. Maybe she is bossy and controlling, again, just going off what you're saying but a couple things stick out to me. She makes "demands" about you sticking to something or an agreement. Does she do this because it's something you're bad at doing? Do you stick to your word, are you honorable? Do you forget things a lot, do you have ADHD? These are legit concerns.
Response: I have ADD, which now has been thrown into the same diagnosis but ultimately is slightly different. I don't have the hyperactive parts though sometimes I think I might have it a little. As for the honor and sticking to my word, I would like to think myself as such a person but in reality I'm not. But being so hurts... it hurts me that I've manipulated people I love and others over the years; including her. Hurts that I tend to put my own feelings above everyone else's a majority of the time. I want nothing more than to be honest & honorable & just not be an asshole, yet I find myself more often than not being such. For example, being on the site typing this out when my girlfriend told me she wants me done with UMD because it hurt her so much when she found out about my posts and the site in general. She's seen it as cheating and I'm going to be deleting my profile from the site sooner than later.

"Also, you mention that she was "forcing" you to give up your addictions to cigarettes, marijuana, and alcohol. You specifically say "addictions". This doesn't sound like she's being a killjoy, it sounds like you have a problem. You are the godfather to two of her nieces. She clearly has some plans for you in the long term.

She has felt overwhelmed at times it seems and even tried to leave but you "begged" for her to stay. I mean, that's not very controlling on her part here. It doesn't fit the narrative."

Response: Her forcing me to give up my addictions was meant to be seen as a positive on her part, doing so saved my life because of the path I was heading down and I consider her a blessing in that sense. Wasn't meant to paint her as the killjoy. Was meant to paint both sides of her, the part I feel as overbearing & drives me insane and the part I don't know if I ever could live without in my life.

3.Your relationship with others and your kinks You mentioned your girl throwing out your girly stuff. And this is going to tie into #4. Why is this? This seems weird to me, especially if she knows you're a crossdresser. I think she thinks something more is going on here. You mention that you're bi, but you've been with this woman for 9 years. Have you been exclusive, or are you poly? Are you seeing other people behind her?

Response: I say that I am bi because I am, I have been attracted to men and had a boyfriend & male partners in the past but I'm very much committed to her in this relationship and never have nor would I ever cheat on her. That is also the main reason why I couldn't go through with the appointment ultimately, aside from the cost and just having made the call caused myself pain as I couldn't believe that I had done it... I felt as if I had cheated just thinking and considering such things. However, by being on this site, she feels otherwise since my interests in WAM do have a sexual side to them. I can see where she is coming from with that regard, though I didn't see it before, and this is why I'm gong to be deleting my profile eventually once we have gone through my inbox together; leaving no stone unturned and nothing hidden. Another reason I am posting this response; so that she will end up reading it in the hopes that it will help reassure her of my intentions for our future.

"4.Your sexuality and gender identity I'm just going to go out there and say it. I think you might be trans and you don't even know it yet. I love boobs too, but I don't ever feel like I want to go out and get implants, I certainly don't obsess over it.

There are trans women out there with dysphoria that don't seek to have EVERYTHING changed by surgery either. There are a LOT of levels I'm finding out just with my experiences with my ex-wife who is trans."

Response: I haven't talked with anyone professionally about this as this was the only time I've ever mentioned this before to anyone other than her. It was mostly just a blog meant to be thrown out there as me just typing. I hadn't even known there was a "private" option for blogs on this site until my 2nd one; didn't realize it otherwise I might have labeled it private instead. But had I done that, I wouldn't have gotten your advice which is pretty solid overall and your insights have helped me at least. As for being trans, I am not aware of the many levels of trans which you speak of but I do not believe myself to be one. And although it might be something I ultimately probably should discuss with a professional, I'm okay with not doing so & not holding on to any label like that. I'm just, me... don't need to identify it for the masses or even myself in order to be happy despite what I thought in the past.

"Ultimately, I think that you and your girl need to see a councilor, or therapist if you want your relationship to work. I think she loves you and that's why she's still with you. But I think you're also driving her nuts. It seems like she feels she can't count on you, or that you have issues with responsibility. Again, I'm going strictly by the narrative you've presented here."

Response: I think that part of this is right on the head; she loves me but I'm driving her insane. In fact, I'm pretty positive that it's true. I also believe that for our relationship to work, we should first work together to repair it (in light of all the secrets and me hiding things & the lies I've told her while being defensive when I should have just told her everything from the very beginning w/o hiding it) ...

It saddens me that I won't be posting on here anymore as it's something me & her agreed upon. But I hope that this community will remember what I have tried to bring here by welcoming the newbies and beginning the tips and tricks section. Make sure to support each other and take care.
