Being able to talk freely about oneself without a need of  others' approval is a key to self-acceptance and self-assertion

So true!!!
when you learn that your self esteem and self worth doesn`t require Anyones validation, approval or even acceptance, then you`re on the path to real Authenticity!

Growapair, the more you practice dressing in front of her, and being yourself around her whilst dressed the sooner it`ll become the new "normal". Honestly, i felt exactly the same way as you did at first as well (and my wife is my best friend!) it`s a bit like smoking when you`re a kid, your parents may know and all that, and you could have been smoking for years! but as soon as you have your first smoke in front of them you just feel like a real goof! LOL
this too shall pass! xx
