Hi everyone.

I Made the mistake of leaving a load of laundry in the dryer this morning when I went to work. I had forgotten about a pair of panties that were in there. When I got home I found that my mother had put all my laundry on my bed. The panties were not there. I went into the laundry room and there they were, folded up on the counter. My mother has to know that They are not her's. The are newer and larger than hers. when my mother left, I took the panties and put a pair of her's in it's place. She has not said anything. I am really afraid of what she might say. I'm even more afraid of what I might say.

Just don't say anything

In this situation ( which happened to me in kinda the same circumstances ) it is really your mother who has to make the first move. The fact she did not throw it away was interesting. It could've been your girl friend's or something or you are keeping it as a souvenir. In my case there was no question they were mine since my mother found an entire wardrobe of the stuff when I was a kid.

Disaster / Opportunity

I can't really give you unsolicited advice, because I don't know anything about you, your mother, your relationship with her, or anything about anyone else who lives in your household.

All I will say, is that this could be a disaster, or an opportunity. It's not entirely in your hands which it will be, but how you handle it could make a big difference.

This might be an opportunity for relationship building. There's not usually ever a bad time to express love, admiration, or gratitude to someone. This might be one of those times. Your mother didn't make a huge deal out of the unexpected find in your laundry. That might be worthy of a thank you.

Again, I'm not privvy to your situation, but there are times when being open, submissive or dependent will greatly influence a relationship with someone. You can't just plow into this straight off, but it might be something to keep in mind should some dialog develop. Confessing weaknesses, such as pain, embarrassment or vulnerability can actually strengthen a relationship. It shows trust and honesty on your part, both of which are essential to building upon a bond.

I've heard all kinds of disaster stories. My own experiences have been surprising. Most of the people that I already knew, who I've told about my crossdressing, said something like, "Oh, my god! I'm so grateful that you felt you could trust me with that! Thank you. It really means a lot to me to know that you feel that way about me." To them, it was more about a trust/relationship issue than it was about the crossdressing itself.

This is not to say that your experience, should you choose to try to duplicate this, won't turn into an unmitigated disaster. You're going to have to use your own judgement, feel out your own situation, take it slow, and leave yourself an out somewhere. For now, I definitely wouldn't initially plan on taking it any further than thanking your Mom for not making a big deal about the panties, and expressing embarrassment. Even there, I'd look for a sign first that this might not blow up in your face.
