By *asual777 OP   Man  over a year ago

i travel all over

The narrative of the ‘cheating husband’ is conspicuous by its absence so thought I d address this .

I suppose like many in the same position things have changed enormously in the marriage over the years . Whilst there is so much good , the intimacy aspect has waned slowly over the years and with it like many others my needs to feel validated/desired have become increasingly unfulfilled .

I was faced with two options . Please note we have had many conversations and therapy has been dismissed .

1. Not pursue other outlets: and become increasingly resentful

2. Pursue other options , like fab. Risk STIs (managed risk), getting caught (managed risk), falling for someone else (unlikely when you’re married to someone wonderful in so many ways including as a mother , despite her waning desire for you ).

I chose 2. Personally I am not sure option 1 was really an option long term . It’s easy to state that my mental health would not have been up to it and use that as an excuse , but it’s true I sincerely believe .

I am getting closer to explicitly stating that I need to compartmentalise the sex part. Not there yet .

Some will read this and think ‘scum’. Maybe true but always a little more complex when you hear the other side of the story ....

Option 3.

Be honest with her that you can't live without sex and have her agree to you being satisfied elsewhere

Option 4.

Be honest with her that you can't live without sex and if you can't come to an arrangement then you are fundamentally incompatible and so agree to seperate.

Don't betray youe loved one. It's not necessary. Keep your integrity and be upfront about fixing the issue together, or being apart.

Communicate your feelings, ambitions, frustrations, fantasies; you might find that your waning relationship moves up a notch or two onto another plane (of consciousness).

Jeez..what to say...well l think its totally wrong that a person can deprive someone of something they love simply because they think they can or its ok to do so..its selfish..yes l fully understand how things can go in a marraige but the " well lm not interested so you have to go without too " attitude is wrong..on both sides if thats the situation...whats the solution ?.. totally depends on circumstances of course but life is so short and if either side love sex and are being denied it well then its time to move cause you dont want to reach a stage in your life and regret missing out on something you love because you let someone else make that decision for you.

Well no.. your option was talking about not being caught cheating etc. That's fundamentally different to my option where you get agreement from her that you get sex elsewhere.

You can do this without betraying the person in your life who trusts you most.

Also many many kids continue to thrive with coparents who live separate lives. Mine do. At least that way they see both their parents acting with integrity and don't catch them in disloyalty. That's a path to dysfunction.

The concept of my life partner coming onto a web forum to discuss the best way to cheat on me and get absolution from a bunch of strangers is stomach turning. Possibly worse than actually cheating.

You can't have it all ways. You can't cheat AND be the good guy. If you're gonna do it, at least own up to that. Lots of people go years, lifetimes even without sex by choice or otherwise. If you wanna stay the good guy you can choose to accept that, or be honest, or leave.

But the fact that you're not prepared to hurt your kids over it by leaving but you're fine with hurting your wife by cheating? This just shows that your resentment doesn't come from deprivation, it comes from entitlement.

Cheating also hurts the kids far more so than their parents just splitting up. It leaves them with a lifetime of issues that they may never fully recover from .

Just be aware OP the consequences u potentially face if you are ever caught the fallout affects far more than just your poor wife

This

Ps. If your wife KNEW you were cheating (which is what it is) then she could make her choice to stay (and work on it) or leave.

You aren't giving her any options herself therefore, it's all on your terms. Which is extremely selfish.

Sorry OP.....

I understand you are frustrated but you can't disrespect the mother of your children in that way.

I don't know whether you hoped to get approval or catharsis or simply a pity fuck from posting this.

You do you, but for those of us who won't play with people without their partner's consent, we don't need to know your reasons. I have my reasons for making that choice & it's nobody's business what those reasons are.

Am with you Op.

Option 2 is best and I understand where you are coming from.

You love your wife but want sex. Normal. You want to stay with her but she may not agree to open relationship. Understood. So:don't tell her.

Pay no heed to those who harp on about "integrity" or " cheating". It's your wife who changed the agreement, not you, by going off sex. Try and understand her reasons and see what can be done to get her interested again but, if not possible, play away but be careful and don't get caught. You cannot hurt her if she doesn't know and you are able in your own mind to compartimenalise what you are doing. Many people, mostly men, can easily do this-it's just sex- but many cannot: especially women as they are more driven by their feelings and emotions. There is much much more to a happy marriage than just sex. It can be so over-rated.

Brave post OP.

My only response is re option4 since I can relate to it personally.

Kids can thrive through, despite of and in some cases because of seperation. Of course there will be a bumpy patch but life is full of change and challenge.

Parenting is all about communicating and supporting them through it, which is a lot easier done in an atmosphere of openness and honesty.

Option 3 worked for me. Took a few years for me to confront the issue but I did about 5 years ago and we are both a lot happier since. Celibacy is not for me

Do you miss intimacy and validation? Is that why you set up a couple's profile with someone to meet other couples ? You need multiple partners for intimacy ? And validation ? Or are you just talking bollox and trying to justify cheating??

True story...

I met a guy about 7 years ago on here who spun the exact same story. Funny outgoing fella who had the gift of the fab and nearly fell hook, line & sinker for the sob story until he was telling what he thought was a funny story....

His mother-in-law was minding his kids and was looking for something that was supposed to be in his bedroom. She opened the wife's bedside locker and found their sex toys

So you were on a thread this week talking about how high a risk people on here having unprotected sex was and that you felt it was OK to criticise that.

I assume you have told your wife she is no longer in a monogamous sexual relationship (regardless of the minimum intimacy unless its absolute zero and you will refuse any advances she makes) so that she can safely manage her sexual health and risk

Thing is nobody was asking for 'the other side of the story' (besides that we've actually only heard one side of the story) nor do we need to know. There's no absolution to be gained on the public fab forum quite contrary.

Cheating is cheating, whether here to keep options etc, you are doing it behind partners back, that makes you a cheater and a dickhead in my book. If you arent happy move on.

It really feels like the best solution to the issue if you can make this work as a couple. I would be SO proud of my wife if she was able to agree to this during a time when her physical needs were different. It really shows that she understands you and prioritises your needs, and you guys are going to work through the difficult times together.

I’m really lucky that way. She said it was partly because it had been so long and knew how high my drive can be, but mainly because I didn’t make her feel bad about it and I didn’t pressure her in any way and I didn’t cheat on her.

This is a common theme on all the Fab forums. Thank you for raising it, as you're voicing the stories of many Irish men. However, I find it counterproductive, as in general, you'll get unsupportive responses. Many people here on the Irish forum respond with moral outrage, rather than logical rational thinking, and dare I say it, sympathy and empathy. If you post this subject in the UK or French forum, the responses are more helpful and understanding. Best of luck in your relationship. I could think of many solutions, but won't offer them here. The bigger question is.. Why does sexual desire diminish in couples relationships.?

I have seen these threads over many years in the UK forum and the opinion there is as divided. Yes there are many more defenders but that's soley due to the numbers kn the forum itself.

To infer that people who believe that lying and cheating in your spouse are illogical, irrational and lack sympathy or compassion is a little self indulgent to your own point of view.

There are many sides to every argument and issue but just because you view your outlook as more enlightened doesn't always make it so

You're missing the point totally.

People who have commented on this thread and others have also commented on other unrelated threads about other subjects but certainly in relation to people meeting during lockdown.

They were very vocal about no one having the right on fab to judge others and that what others do is of no concern whatsoever to them. They also said it was ridiculous how quick others were to jump on a thread to have a dig at people for meeting despite covid restrictions and that it should always be live and let live. And yet here we are once more....

The subject of the thread is irrelevant. It's the hypocrisy.

I got your point. That's why I replied to the other poster just about the pic n mix morality.

I'd have to see the actual end and context to comment on that.

Like for example if someone started a thread having a go at married people I'd possibly tell them to mind their own business. But when someone posts a justification on a public forum I feel OK to post on it.

So I can see potential hypocrisy but also how people might have different outlooks depending on context

Honesty and integrity are important to me. You can live your life as you see fit but the hurt and damage that will be caused if you're found out will be catastrophic and it will be your fault because you lied. Also, maybe it doesn't matter but this is a swinging website and swinging falls under Ethical Non-Monogamy, ethical being the point. The conversation will be difficult and may result in the end of the relationship but maybe that's the best way forward for both your happiness.

As a person you know what you are doing, you know it’s wrong the hurt your gonna cause to all concerned and yet it has to be justified. No I don’t walk in your shoes but you don’t need justification for this it’s your life your guilt

But cause others might not agree the tables get turned

"I’m married, happily as well. My wife knows I’m having fun elsewhere because it was her idea. Her libido has take a dive in recent years (medical reasons) and until such time when it picks up, she suggest I play elsewhere. I agree that it’s all about communication

It really feels like the best solution to the issue if you can make this work as a couple. I would be SO proud of my wife if she was able to agree to this during a time when her physical needs were different. It really shows that she understands you and prioritises your needs, and you guys are going to work through the difficult times together.

I’m really lucky that way. She said it was partly because it had been so long and knew how high my drive can be, but mainly because I didn’t make her feel bad about it and I didn’t pressure her in any way and I didn’t cheat on her."

I like my morals where I like knicker elastic. Loose!

Of course I'm biased, being a cheating bastard.

I do wonder though, how this relevance on the forum translates to the club scene?

From my relatively limited experience, if the club gets to the naked stage, glory holes, poles, beds, orgy, etc. I don't recall too many questions about marital status.

Maybe put yourself in your club mindset before answering next time.

Perhaps?

Maybe we went to different clubs

I guess sometimes the guilt and self loathing can build a wall in the brain that stops rational thought and logic, and allows the kind of behaviour that wouldn't be in any way acceptable otherwise.

I get where your coming from.

By *asual777 OP   Man  over a year ago

i travel all over

1. I have communicated on multiple occasions that I can’t live without sex . I have not yet been granted permission to look elsewhere .

2. I am never ever going to look for separation. We are , as parents , a very good team . The kids are happy , bright and Sociable.

3. I have frankly bored her with communicating my feelings desires fantasies .

4. I am not looking for absolution . My post is fairly clear . I am not looking to be the good guy. My post is fairly clear on that .

5. As I am not looking to be the good guy, and as I would not have stayed in the relationship had it not been for the kids I suspect , I am not looking to have my cake and eat it . I am looking to survive a complex situation Without risking impacting on the kids trajectory or my sanity .

6. Not posting was an option . Putting the other side of the story was a better one for me. Zero regrets .

7. I am not giving my wife options and that’s true , but she is giving me zero options too. No couples therapy , no open marriage , no visits to the gp to explore medical causes of a reducing libido . Celibacy is not an option . I know what I am like .

8. I don’t want to pity fuck. I have plenty of other forms to keep me busy.

9. If you don’t want to know my reasons don’t read my post .

10. Yes group meets give me validation . I said I miss feeling desired within the marriage . Group meets give me that over and over , over a period of 14/15/16 hours. Why would it matter to any poster what type of sex I had ? Group meets make falling for any single individual a lot less likely . And are a bloody good laugh. I leave full of enthusiasm to be the best co-parent, house mate, friend and colleague I can be , rather than a grumpy bloke wallowing Constantly ( I am avoiding using the term husband purposefully).

11. Thé kids card is not a card. It’s just that they do well with us . One of them is a mini-me whom I know how to soothe like no one else . Both love our contrasting but mutually additive parenting approaches .

12. I suspect peri menopause is why this is happening . I have talked about a gp visit a lot. I have not tried to stick on a HRT patch while she sleeps yet . I dream of this being addressed and me leaving here, despite the amazing people I meet and interact with on fab. It’s a dream becoming less likely to be realized by the day.

13. I am not spinning a story . We have no sex toys. Never had . After an adventurous start we moved into a very vanilla state . So vanilla even oral was largely off the table . I still dream of more frequent Uber vanilla marital sex . Even if still have to initiate all the time . And get rejected 340 days a year.

14. I didn’t criticise people who have bareback pics. I said it would lead to me being concerned about meeting with them and a concerned state doesn’t in me equate to being turned on. I get tested regularly . Never had a positive test . As you can see from all posted pics and video a condom is non negotiable .

15. Actually I try not to criticise because you don’t know how people feel after reading a critical post on here . I have started threads about a more kind fab. I am sure like everyone else though the odd post from me has made people feel shitty.

16. Nobody was asking for many thread topics . Should I run polls before I start a thread ? If you don’t like this thread stay away from it .

17. I am happy to be a dickhead as far as one poster Is concerned . Happy to have a longer conversation about my feelings about them if they d like .

18. Other people’s wives suggesting they play elsewhere is lovely and heart warming . It is not relevant or an option in my life. I will continue to try to make it a relevant option . I am glad the perfect scenario of a non pressuring husband being granted a green light to shag others exists elsewhere . I have tried talking, not talking , initiating , not initiating , read books , joined forums , individual therapy , the lot. No green light . I have given myself the green light. I have another quarter century all being well of amazing sex ahead of me and I am not dying with regrets. Is that entitlement ? Or a basic human need ?

19. I am hugely interested in why some posters get worked up. Some have obviously been affected by infidelity , and I am sorry if this post has brought this back for them but feel it’s important . There is however a sense also from what I can see of the ‘winning the argument’ type posts. I have zero interest in responding to that type of post. It’s Also a bit troll-y

20. I am fully aware of the consequences of being found out. I will ask you this though, do you have any data on what the Outcomes are for partners who want sex snd are denied it long term ? What do you think some of the poorer outcomes include ?

21. What ethical framework are you using ? Is it your opinion of infidelity ?

22. I am not sweet talking my way out of this . I ran out of options , for me, and chose the only path left : High risk high reward .

Look I fundamentally disagree with alot of what you say above but rather than having a prolonged pointless back and forth as every point has been addressed what I would say is maybe consider deleting the above and editing out the more intimate details about your wife.

They don't need to be on a public forum. I'm sure you can agree that she deserves at least that level of privacy and respect as you said ye work well as a team for the kids etc...

Yes...l would agree ...it was once mentioned on a previous forum post where a question was asked and the poster got a direct reply on the forum along the lines of ..." asking such a personal question like that in a place like this "....if it really is troubling the OP he should discuss it with close friends or family and not faceless people/profiles of people he will probably never meet in real life..( that of course is not saying he wont get good advice here either its just too much of a personal issue l think for a public forum in a joint like fab )

Again... having the intimate details of my perceived failings as a partner laid out for a group of strangers on a sex site would be more of a betrayal than any cheating. This is an enormous, unforgiveable breach of privacy and trust. I hope she never finds out how callous you are.

Well no.. your option was talking about not being caught cheating etc. That's fundamentally different to my option where you get agreement from her that you get sex elsewhere.

You can do this without betraying the person in your life who trusts you most.

Also many many kids continue to thrive with coparents who live separate lives. Mine do. At least that way they see both their parents acting with integrity and don't catch them in disloyalty. That's a path to dysfunction."

So true.. option 3 is what we both chose.. best decision of our lives..

This is an excellent thread. Multiple opinions. And the OP's long answer above is his choice to publish.

He is choosing a way to live, his life, his needs, his desires, his passions. His responsibility. And he is representative of many men in the same situation.. who don't talk about it to anyone. Can you imagine what that does to them over a lifetime?.

Yes, there are others involved, but I'm focusing solely on the OP and his situation.

If you want to be a voyeur for a bit, go over to Fabguys, and see the forum posts from so many men on this same topic, and how supportive those posters are of each other. For a broader world view watch podcasts by Esther Perel, and Suzanne Venker,.. Esther's advice to women.. " if you're not having sex with him, another woman will". To understand why men and women are biologically different, read Sex at Dawn, on swinging, polyamoury, promiscuity, sex, etc.

I now withdraw from the fray.

Or perhaps, instead of trying to justify your actions by listening to podcasts, Listen to yourself and the inner voice which is telling you it's wrong! He clearly knows he is giving in to instant gratification, otherwise he wouldn't be posting this thread!

One way or another his situation will come to a head.

He'll get caught, fall in love and leave her, or resent her having to do this and again, leave her.

These situations usually don't end well. It's clear they can't communicate their needs to each other and that in itself, is a receipe for disaster.

Better still, she finds out.

She is far better off making her own decisions rather than a cheating husband deciding that she can't have that choice.

"Jesus wept.

The sense of privilege is sickening. Sort out your mess OP. Go to some individual therapy to help you find your way..Be honest with yourself and those you love? And care about.

Man up and talk to your wife and leave. Stop with the kids BS.

Your already messing around with a couples profile and all this will not end well.

If your found out, your kids will hate you -for everything!

Initially it can be hard, painful and tricky but in the end ,you’ll grow and learn from the experience and hopefully you’ll be a better person from it.

That will get you points with the "in" crowd

I couldn’t care less. That wasn't the objective of my post.

Ah no buddy your a single male. The only reason you could possibly have an opinion is to get the ride."

You know me so so well. Funny guy.
