Dear Annie: I have been married to "Jerry" for 15 years. Four years ago, I discovered he was a crossdresser. I was understanding about it, and even went shopping, bought clothes and tried on shoes for him. I agreed to go away with our kids so he would have "private time" to dress up on a regular basis.
I asked him whether he wanted to make this a permanent lifestyle, and he said no. However, he'd often make flip comments that led me to believe there was more to the story. Last week, I snooped and read an e-mail in which he told a friend that he was excited and nervous after his first appointment with a transgender surgeon.
I am heartbroken, but deep down I suspected this was coming.
