Chickened Out

Today I put on a Polo shirt the wife bought for me for mothers day to make her happy and soon discovered that the back was almost see through.  I could see my bra straps clearly when I looked in the mirror.  Since we were not going any where I left it on and had to point it out to the wife.  Then she said OH,  The only thing we had to do was return a red box video I didn't care.  Then she said she needed a six pack of eggs so we had to go to the store to get a six pack of eggs.  I thought about coming in with her but she said NO.  I didn't mind a bit and stayed in the car.  She doesn't care if my bra straps show at home but out in public is a no-no.  And I am to self conscious to disagree with her.  Nobody knows I wear but her and my doctors and nurses. Right now I want to keep it that way,

You only buy eggs by a 6 pack? Wow, we buy them 15 dozen at a time and it's just the 2 of us and mostly me eating them, and my HDL and LDL are great!

I think that for myself, long ago, I put myself in a place, mentally , that wearing a bra is a benefit to me. I told myself that feeling comfortable physically means that I may end up feeling uncomfortable mentally . Then I finally realized that my breasts and having to wear a bra was about me and I am the only person it truly effects. That's when I because mentally comfortable with wearing a bra . I can say that I am completely comfortable with wearing a bra, bra shopping and fittings and even breast exams. 
Once you realize that wearing a bra is something that you don't have to do but should, it becomes a lot easier. Even at the beach, I can't go topless but I still want to enjoy the sun and surf. I have to cover up but I don't have to wear a bikini top, I wear a tankini with a built in bra cups for support and coverage . It works and looks like a tank top and I feel comfortable both physically and mentally.
