I don’t quite get it, though, I suspect something may have been lost in translation?

I’m glad! My wife also requested that I keep my diapers covered, at least in bed. I think that’s the most important thing - finding a compromise that works for both of you. From there, who knows, maybe she’ll become accepting of more that you guys can grow into, but it will take time (I’m saying this as much to myself as I am to you).

My wife knew about my desire to wear diapers before we got married. That said, it took a little while before I even wore a diaper in front of her. The unfortunate part of the whole thing, for me, is that I wasn’t completely up-front with her from the get-go. So because of that, she didn’t fully understand why I liked to wear diapers. Just last year I finally realized that I had never explained to her that I’ve wanted to wear diapers since I was about 4 (I’m 33 now). I gave her a brief (no pun intended) history about many different moments in my life that cemented ABDL into my life. I also had her read up on BitterGrey’s “understanding infantilism” page, which was also very helpful for her (I’m mainly a DL, but I do have some AB tendencies, and I don’t use my diapers). That night I asked her if she would compromise with me find a way for me to wear - I had asked her a handful of times throughout our first year of marriage and she had always said no. A week later, she presented me with a compromise and I accepted! I never even thought about starting out with just plain, white diapers, but, I did show her pictures of the diapers I wanted (Tykables Overnights, Rearz Safari, and ABU Kiddo). She asked me why those diapers and I told her because I liked diapers that looked like diapers babies wore when I was a kid. She was okay with it, though, I know it still wasn’t easy for her. But I know she did it for me because she wanted me to know that she loves me no matter what - even if I like to wear diapers. As others have said, openness and honesty are the key.

It really is

Tykables Overnights, Rearz Safari, Abu Little Paws are all great and very thick when dry.

Really curious to know the back story about how this video came together. I mean, I’d guess if the director is an ABDL, the artist would have known?

I almost always wore diapers as a coping mechanism. Things weren’t going the way I wanted them to in life? I’d buy some diapers. Didn’t get a promotion? Girlfriend broke up with me? Diapers. Since I’ve been married and my wife and I found a compromise (she has slowly come to accept, if not embrace, my enjoyment of wearing diapers), I only wear them around positive events, like my birthday, and I love that she thought of that! I think it’s way better, for those of us who only wear occasionally, to connect it to positive things, rather than negative.

I used to dream about Jean Grey (Famke Janssen) from the first three X-Men movies putting me in diapers and babying me. Sarah Walker (Yvonne Strahovski) from CHUCK.

No matter how terrifying it seems, opening up is the best thing you could do, even if it doesn’t have the results that you hope and wish for. For me, I had reached a point in my life where I decided that I was never going to tell any friends, family, or girlfriend. That all changed 3 months into my engagement with my, now, wife. Long story short, she asked me if I knew that there were people who liked to wear diapers and dress and act like babies; in that moment I knew I needed to tell her. It was incredibly difficult for me to actually get the words out, but when I did, she only reaffirmed her love for me. Admittedly from there, it’s taken a long time - nearly two years for her to get to point where she was comfortable (and understood) with me wearing. I truly hope that if you can muster up the strength to tell her, that you have similar results. One last thing, I have a hard time understanding/believing that you secretly wear around her without her knowing. If you’ve worn diapers around her, I feel like she may already know?

Get this feeling in the pit of your stomach when you put a diaper on for the first time in a long time? Pure exhilaration. I discovered today that I get that same feeling when I smelled some Pampers baby fresh wipes that were in my wife’s car (she nannies from time to time).

My apologies!

How is that a “basic cheap white disposable?” There are clearly colored shapes on the white part and the sides are purple.

Not prequels. Sandra Bullock’s character is Danny Ocean’s sister. Not that it really makes it any better, but...

While talking about the cast of Ocean’s 8, Sarah Paulson jokingly said she wished she’d been wearing a diaper when she met Rihanna (a little after the 3 minute mark).

I’m primarily a DL, but I also have been curios about looking into AB stuff in the past. I’ve bought bottles and pacifiers. I remember probably 7-8 years ago, I went nearly a week trying to fall asleep diapered and with a Pampers brand pacifier, but I just could not fall asleep with the pacifier in my mouth. One morning I finally woke up with it still in my mouth. At first I was really happy, but that was almost immediately followed by regret. I’m not sure if it was just because it was a baby pacifier or maybe I was chewing on it in my sleep, but my front 4 teeth were very sore! I stopped trying to sleep with a paci after that. I'm still very curious about AB activities. I think that I’d really enjoy trying some ageplay as a little with my wife, but I don’t think she’d be willing to try. She knows that I’m a DL, and she accepts it, but she doesn’t really want to be a part of it. At least not in terms of participating.
