Dear Walter:
I hope you can help me here. The other day I set off for work leaving my husband in the house watching the TV as usual. I hadn't gone more than a few hundred yards down the road when my engine conked out and the car shuddered to a halt. I walked back home to get my husband's help.

When I got home I couldn't believe my eyes. He was parading in front of the wardrobe mirror dressed in my underwear and high-heel shoes, and he was wearing my make up.

I am 32, my husband is 34 and we have been married for twelve years. When I confronted him, he tried to make out that he had dressed in my lingerie because he couldn't find his own underwear. But when I asked him about the make up, he broke down and admitted that he'd been wearing my clothes for six months. I told him to stop or I would leave him.

He was let go from his job six months ago and he says he has been feeling increasingly depressed and worthless. I love him very much, but ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly distant. I don't feel I can get through to him anymore. Can you please help?

Sincerely,
Mrs. Sheila Lusk

Dear Sheila:
A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a variety of faults with the engine. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line. If it is clear, check the jubilee clips holding the vacuum pipes onto the inlet manifold. If none of these approaches solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to the carburetor float chamber.

I hope this helps.
Walter

Cool, so much for covering the car problem.

Bot, are you gonna jump in with advice on the 'Cross Dressing Parade'?

He over-watered the Begonias.

He should have said since he was out of work he was trying to save money on clothes by wearing hers!

Get thru to him? just sit on his face and give him a handjob every morning,that'll prevent this "experimentation".
Most married fellows are pussies when it comes down to their own needs,as they don't want to "force"their desires upon their disingenuously harried spouses or some such *****.

If Wifey has hormonal/prozac/anhedonia issues just be a man and get your pleasure elsewhere.

As usual ch is logical and on target.

Don't laugh that happened to a girlfriend of mine back in the 70's. I asked her who looked better dressed up? She divorced Donald and is now on hubby #3.

OK. No problem here.

Seems he got into the outfit and makeup pretty quick. How long did it take her to walk a few hundred yards?? Maybe she is envious of him since he can get his makeup on so quickly.

And smear his lipstick? Oh man, that's begging for trouble.

Isn't that like saying that if you give me pork everyday, I won't be interested in beef? Maybe he enjoys being in women's clothing. Sex everyday or every hour isn't going to change that.
