ORIGINAL: Nineveh Considering how many times my wife has used our money to go and visit her men, no, I don't think she'd be particularly upset about me doing the same. As to how I'd describe the love, it keeps me awake, it gives me hearts and butterflies, and it sometimes consumes my thoughts. It absolutely gives me a lot of joy, and the only pain that comes from it is from the guilt. Out of everything on the entire thread, that is what you have comments on? Dude, let Me give you this straight from the hip. Believe it or not, I have a feeling that I get your position in ways that some folks on this thread probably don't. Not about the cheating, because you know I'm not with you on that. I'm talking about the rest of the situation. Yes, I completely get that in a poly or open situation, there will be money spent on traveling to or spending time with others. If your wife has a Dom, at some point, she's going to want to see him. The same would go with you spending money to see a sub. That's called being fair between you and your wife. I get that. People have probably figured that clip spends money coming to see Me, so that isn't the issue. Also, you need to remember that I am also married to someone who is now interested in this lifestyle. If you were here, I'd look you in the face and tell you exactly this. I know that it is easier for the female in a couple of an open or poly relationship to find real partners. I've watched over and over through the years in our relationship. Where I have no problem finding subs or play partners, MP doesn't have it nearly as easy. I've got a sub, someone else who wants to be My sub, and several play partners. MP plays when he's lucky enough to find somebody to do so. Half of those chances wouldn't exist if I wasn't there. It is way harder for the male of the couple to accomplish real time play partners and subs. Oh, yeah. For the record, I totally get how two people can love each other and not have the right D/s energy together. Even if MP were a sub or a switch, we wouldn't work. So, you're doing what's left. The online thing to fulfill what it is that you wish you had. Ok. I might even get that, too. What I don't get is you compromising your principles to do it. The one that you've 'fallen for' so bad you're not even looking at what could potentially screw up her life. One last thing. I heard what you said about the relationship that you had ten years ago. There is a really good thread back in the archives on the poly board that I seriously think you should read. It's all about one relationship ending and one relationship remaining in tact. You have a built in support system in your wife. Should you decide to be the man that you know you should be, you might want to utilize it.
