Having been in a similar situation, I can sympathize, but I also think it is unfair both to your wife and to the domme the way you are doing it. I played for a number of years with pro dommes because I had strong feelings and because it was professional, it didn't have the emotional baggage or sexual baggage, in that no sex happened there, it was all play (eventually I did tell my wife and have her blessing...eventually we got into it lifestyle). Trying to find a lifestyle domme is wrong to me because that is a personal relationship; when I played professionally I became friends with the dommes, but it was never lifestyle, neither I nor they would want me to be their lifestyle sub/slave, because I was married, it had to be professional,play only, and a domme who thought I was getting too close broke off me seeing her because she knew what was happening. My advice? If this is so important to you, then actually talk to your wife about it, you may be surprised. Between 50 shades of gray (okay, I know, no teeth gritting from the peanut gallery *lol*), and other things, she at least probably has heard of this, and if you talk to her you might find some interest. If you are truly sub, rather than just looking for play, she may see the benefits, and if it is just play, she might see it as simply fun...if you are finding you want to be a lifestyle sub, and she can't deal with it at all, then I agree with others, you may want to think about splitting up to allow finding someone else. Besides the fact that few lifestyle dommes I know want anything to do with married men (and if you are searching for someone lifestyle and not telling them, that is bad news) or the drama, your wife will find out, then what? If you are going to talk to your wife, start slow, and talk about what kind of things you mean, about what it means to you and so forth, but take it easy. If she has heard of 50 shades, you could use that as a starting point, except you would be in the position of Ana and your wife, Christian Grey (well, okay, but you get the point)....Actually, I liked what one poster wrote, put yourself in the mindset of being sub, serving, her, being mindful of her, giving her lead on things, making decisions , keeping the tv remote *lol*......and then after a bit, see if she notices it, compliments you on it, and then talk to her, because she will have seen the benefits.
