Why I'll never transition

    Recently we were sorting through my wife's jewellery and came across a ring which I bought her on my first business trip abroad; a silver ring with a large cubic zirconia. In the past she had worn it as a 'bling' ring or and alternate engagement ring. She hadnt worn it for some time as it no longer fits (rheumatism). As it was silver it looked quite shabby (dull and grey). I said I'd clean it up to see what it would look like and whether it was worth altering. Well after a lot of polishing it did look good but she couldn't find a finger she really wanted to wear it on which looked good. She then looked at me and said "Why don't you have it and have it stretched for your ring finger. I know you've wanted and engagement ring to wear with your wedding ring.". I thanked her and that is what I am doing.

    As to why I will never transition; my wife may accept me as Jo and know that it is part of my life but she does not want to see me dressed. So how could I be so selfish and force her to decide in that way.
