I think the "cheating" concept has been explored sufficiently, and I wanted to share how it can work out when everyone is upfront and onboard. Not happy in my life. My wife of the time was no happier. We decided to try polyamory and went at it by getting as much education about it as we could. I put up a profile on Polymatchmaker and my Lady (and now wife) contacted me with a friendly email. She was not looking for someone married necessarily, not looking for someone who was transgendered necessarily...but we started communicating. Eventually my Lady agreed to meet both my wife and I for dinner and everyone hit it off. There was chemistry, there was electricity, and there was friendly connection between the two ladies. Over the following months we created a poly family with my wife's boyfriend. For my wife and I, we slowly came to the realization that our relationship was over - we still had love, but not "in-love". And so we agreed to end it. By that time, my Lady and I were living together most of the time. We dissolved the marriage, got separated and then divorced, and even though it was amicable, it was still a very tough time in all our lives. Once it was finalized, my Lady and I were married and here I sit today on the other side of a hard but ultimately rewarding life change a much happier person - I have love, I have total acceptance of who I am, I have great sex, and I am finally able to express my submissive heart to the fullest. It is rarely a fairy tale of bliss from beginning to end. But if a person who is married is willing to act with integrity, what is at the other side is hopefully worth undergoing a change, taking a risk, and perhaps losing some things in order to gain even more.
