This woman I know who is still in the cupboard has a birthday coming up.

I want to surprise her even though she hates surprises.

I could drag her out for a 2nd set of earpiercings but it might be too much for her.

I know she'd love having her nails done but again... out

A pedicure would be fun for her and easily concealed.

Tattoos are a no go, but temporaries could be ok.

Maybe a necklace. She always wears one.

Or a pretty silver ring with a small stone.

Any suggestions welcome

A card that says "Happy 29th birthday!" 🙂

Maybe a gift card to tomboyx if she's in need of gender affirming underwear? Or a gift card to a womens' store?

A two day time away from everything!

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

For my 60th I treated myself to a pair of Pirelli Night Dragon tyres for my Harley Davidson Sportster and 2 days away in East Anglia before the weather broke. It was brilliant though a bit chilly in late October

I was thinking of buying myself a piece of jewelry so I always have a reminder but I'll put it on hold for now.

I started "the conversation" with my wife last night and it wasn't positive.

I had my ears pierced for my 60th and got a pair of crystal studs.

I am happy that you started the conversation with your wife. Keep in mind that this is a shock to her hearing from you for the first time. She will need time to adjust. You have known this for much longer. Keep being yourself, be honest and open, and listen carefully to her concerns.

Check out the Significant Others Forum here to get an idea of what it looks like from her side. Good luck. Just be patient.

Thanks Lori,
I repierced my ears last year when all my thoughts came back. I have thought about getting a 2nd set of piercings but I need to park that idea.

I just typed out a piece about what happened last night but lost it because I wasn't logged in.

I'll try again when I feel like it.

Yes, I've been reading lot's of the significant others posts.

Amy gives me a lot of hope
