I'm a 17 year old guy that likes to wear girls clothes, is this weird?

Since I was 13 I've had an obsession with women's clothes especially heels. I can't exactly remember how this came about but I used to wear my mums clothes on a day to day basis in private. I felt comfortable and confident with myself when I did this but I was far too embarrassed to tell anybody after being bullied for my appearance for a number of years. I guess that's why I felt more confident in myself dressed as a female because in a way I saw myself as a different person.

After about a year I wanted to get some opinions about my obsession, so I downloaded an open group chat app on my phone. People had mixed feelings and thoughts about my situation, some more hurtful than others but it didn't stop me from still wearing woman's clothes.

Some time after this I got into a relationship with a girl who I felt really comfortable around. She was the first person I told about my obsession and she was very open about the idea of me being a "crossdresser". She gave me some of her clothes and shoes and she seemed interested about the subject when I brought it up. She liked wearing my clothes as much as I liked wearing hers. We even had sex a few times wearing each others clothes, it felt so natural to be myself around her.

Unfortunately she cheated on me and we broke up in 2016, she explained I wasn't acting like a boyfriend anymore because of my obsession and that it didn't help that I don't like parties or playing sports. This has a big impact on me because the person I felt most comfortable wearing woman's clothes around left me due to one of the reasons that she didn't like it anymore. I stopped crossdressing straight after this for about 4 months because I didn't want anyone else to not like me because of my obsession if they ever found out.

Within this period I became so unhappy and angry with myself because I was the cause of my breakup for no other reason than she didn't like that I was different than the average guy. I had to tell someone about how I felt so I turned to my female best friend who I had known for 2 years previous to this. She was shocked that I had never told her about my obsession but she talked to me about and comforted me. She was also open to the idea of me being a crossdresser and shared my passion with me.

After a few months she suggested that I should be more confident in myself and tell my best mate, my only male friend, about my obsession so I did. He hated me, he told me I was gay and never to speak to him again. I broke down and didn't know what to do. I knew I wasn't gay as I had previously experimented a few months before because I was curious to know if I was due to me liking women's clothing.

People I worked around day to day started to notice I wasn't myself and I kept getting asked what was wrong with me. I eventually told someone what had happened and they were very open about my situation but then never spoke to me again after I told them. This is why I'm posting my story on here. I need advice on what to do because I'm really stuck. I have no friends left to talk to about it, no one wants anything to do with me and I can't cope for much longer.

I now wear heels everyday but only in private in my bedroom, I have 8 pairs and I still enjoy doing this although I don't know if this is socially acceptable anymore because of the reactions I've had from the people I was close to.

If you took the time to read this, thank you and if you could help me that would be great.

    Hey, first I think there is nothing wrong with you and the way you are. People will make you feel like you are weird, like you're doing something wrong but that doesn't say anything about you, only about them. People can be very close minded and misunderstanding. It is very sad that your friends reject you when they should be making an effort to accept you. Where I live there is quite an open community that accepts all kinds of people like crossdressers, dragqueens and transgenders. Of course they had to deal with a lot of judgement and bullying in their lives ( especially highschool ) but they found friends and a community that accepts them completely. I'm not sure where you live but mentalities change depending on where you go and I hope you'll find the acceptance you deserve. Besides people's judgement you seem to really enjoy crossdressing and I encourage you to keep doing it. I've never dealt with a situation like yours so my advice might not be as good as someone who's been in your situation. You can try to change who you are, but would you feel true to yourself and would you be happy this way? Only you can answer that. You can keep hiding which would be totally understandable or you can try to find people who accept you. Hope it gets better

    Yeah it's just a preference, back then women were restricted to wear dresses and skirts! And pants were considered to be "men's clothing" so yeah it's perfectly normal that you like "feminine clothing " though I don't want to restrict a gender from wearing clothes they feel comfortable in and love, clothes is clothes, clothes don't have a gender or are restricted to one I wouldn't mind if my bf or husband decided to dress "feminine" or if my gf or wife decided to dress "masculine"

    omg thats so cute~~~ can i see?~ :3333

    and are you still friends with your female best friend?

    i mean wtf on your guy "friend" i mean yea he must not

    like gay people (not saying you but people who crossdress)

    he takes you as gay even if your not

    but still, i mean if you two have known each other for a

    long time, he shouldnt just stop being your friend

    even if my friend came out and said he was into eating

    dog shit or some weird shit, i wouldnt stop being his

    friend

    i just wouldnt want to get involved with his weird

    fetish haha

    your ex girlfriend was unfaithful, and if she really

    gave a fk about your relationship, she shouldve tried

    to talk to you about her feelings

    not just cheat on you and make herself look like a

    ungrateful whore

    you can still try to get your guy friend back though

    just tell him that your not gay and you still want

    to be friends

      Hiiii, thank you so much and yeah sure you can see... any time you want, and no I'm not still friends with her. She got a boyfriend and I faded out of the picture. To be honest I wouldn't want to be his friend again, he walked over my feelings one too many times. I'd rather have no friends than one that feels like he can treat me how ever he wants and that I should be fine with that

        yayyyyyy!~ :3

        awwww :/ well thats some bullshit, shes supposed to be your best friend

        my friend has a girlfriend and we still hang out

        ohhh ok. people can always be forgiven though :)

        yea i do agree he shouldnt be mean to you if hes gonna be your friend

        well you could always try explaining it to him anyway, and maybe he'll change his mind

        its worth a shot

        is he mean randomly to you? or just mean because he thinks your gay?

          You can add me on snapchat @ davidlyon99
          And to be honest I don't really want to give him another shot, I've tried explaining and he doesn't give me the chance to before he starts judging me again.
          He is mean to me because he thinks I'm gay, it was fine before I tried to tell him about my situation and then things got out of hand x

    some subcultures, like punk and goth can be ways to embrace this. I did when I was goth/punk and used to get told I looked like the goth witch from that movie "The Craft". I have the straight up alpha bro, masculinity thing though. So I was always fine. Goth/punk went to shit when it started getting overrun by the angry, unattractive, Columbine-ish, white guys.

    We were more violent back then though. I would have beat him up.

    Why the fuck tell people? What did you expect from them? You are a whack job. So stop telling on yourself. Enjoy your fetish behind closed doors and post it here. This site is full of weird people. I'm one of them. You think I give a fuck?
