New to Wearing Bras Daily

[pastthepointofreturn]

I have been skeptical about wearing bras.  Just not ready to commit, but I was becoming self-conscious in all of my shirts. I tried tank tops and compression shirts, but none were comfortable enough for a long-term solution.  I finally broke down and ordered 5 of these bras.  They are very comfortable. Not feminine looking, and completely invisible under even tight t-shirts. I feel much more confident wearing it. 

I was taken aback how wearing a bra daily for only a few weeks made it hard to go braless. I tried a few days ago.  My shirt fit me funny, my nipples were sensitive rubbing on the shirt, I missed the support of the bra.  I felt all out of sorts. I looked in the mirror on the way out the door. I turned around, went back to my room, and put a bra on.  I don't think I can go back to not wearing a bra. 

What kind of surprises me is how my breasts look when I don't have the bra on.  My areolas seem darker and a little bigger. My breasts seem perkier and more feminine looking. Like I am not as side set and protruding out more.  They look like breasts.

Clearly you're finding your way.  Yes, your breasts appear quite feminine.  Honestly, I can imagine a woman with your breasts would be excited because they are firm enough she could comfortable go out without a brassiere.  Different strokes for sure.  Like you, the more I wear a brassiere the more comfortable I am with the feeling.  I don't know I've reached the point where I'll want to wear one all the time in all social situations.  Since I live alone it is easy for me to wear a brassiere most of the time.  My breasts are larger than yours and a bit wider on my chest, so wearing a well designed underwire brassiere puts everything into place.  I like the look and the feel.  But hanging with friends is a different matter for me.  My breasts are still with me but I've long dressed to hide them, so no one seems to pay attention.  We each fine our way.  Thanks for sharing the photos.

Welcome to the club.
You obviously need a bra and have discovered the comfort.
Also you  have also realised that bras organise the girls and bring them front stage and  makes concealment more tricky.
Time will probably teach you that apart from yourself very few will notice and fewer still will notice.
From there, which direction and how far this bra wearing leads  you is up to you.
My advice is ... relax and enjoy..far better than constant worrying about concealment
WELCOME, RELAX, ENJOY

I’m fairly new to bras also. I started about 2 1/2 months ago.

I was very hesitant…it took me 4 months after being prescribed to wear a bra by my doctor to actually start. But now I am just like you. I feel wrong going braless. I tried it once on a Saturday but I ran upstairs after about an hour and put on a bra.

I mostly were underwire bras and I have noticed my boobs are a different shape than before I started wearing a bra. They are more perky and more rounded also. My areola have also become more sensitive and a little bit bigger. I don’t know if this is from the bras or what but they do look more feminine now than they did before I started wearing a bra.

Maybe this is a side effect of bras.

A well designed underwire brassiere with unlined cups pulls everything together and in my experience does exactly what you describe.  The underwire frame pulls the wide mass of a man's bosom forward and the material of the cups shapes each breast, creating a lovely feminine look.  I've been shocked and delighted by what may favorite brassieres do.  That is one reason I so often post photos of what I'm wearing on any given day.  Since we have breasts we should care for them.  A well designed brassiere does just that.

Pastthepoint,  I can see how how wearing is of a benefit to you.  I'm glad you found something that works for you.

  Wearing does shape breast tissue not just while wearing but I feel for the long term also.  Keeps the breast tissue form migrating to the side.
Different bras for different looks and shape.  Don't be afraid to try new things, they all have a purpose.  Personally, I have grown to enjoy many fabrics, styles and colors.  Puts me in control of how I wish to present myself and feel.

Back to 1987, I was 14, I started to wear my mother's bras all day long returning home (I was a single boy of a single mother, I spent most of my time alone in home).

My mother was "petite", hardly a B cup, so her bras were OK for me.

I did notice that my breasts were different in it, like a girl's... or maybe was it all in my mind? Didn't know. There was an ad at that time which stroke me like a lighting.

I have found it! In English the slogan is "Thanks God it fits!", in Italian it was translated in "Infine per me" (for me, at last!)

This was my feeling at the time. "Infine per me!", I found what I was missing. A bra. I never parted from that feeling, unfortunately... or not. The jury is still out.
