She said no, there isn't a way of phrasing it that will make her say yes. Talk to her, don't push and find out if there's a compromise.

put the craving to the side and understand when she said she won't share means that she won't share.

If she's saying no, I guess there's not much else you can do without jeopardising your relationship.

Not quite what I ment, if this is the person he wants to spend the rest of his life with then is it worth throwing that away to fill a desire? Don't get me wrong hopefully he can get the best of both worlds and be happy but if she's dead set on no then he has a choice to make! "
you cant choose to be bisexual...you can choose to be bi playful..bisexuality is bisexuality..like being gay or trans..its not something you can switch on or off..sure you can suppress it..live a lie..but much better to not..life is too short not to feel alive..love should set you free not oppress you..

I think you need to talk when you're not dressed. Explain your need but make it clear how important she is to you.

Are you able to forgo your desire if following it would mean losing her?

Perhaps she could allow you to visit saunas. You really need her permission otherwise you'll need to live with a lot of guilt.

Hmm I'm not sure if you've misunderstood what I meant, or if I've misunderstood you. The choice he has to make isn't about bisexuality, I agree that's not something you can change. The choice is does he stay with his partner or does he fill his desire? Most relationships come with their t's and c's and if this is a deal breaker then it's a question of what makes him happier. I agree life is too short to be forced to live it a certain way to please someone else but if filling one desire means you are ultimately sadder in the long run is it really worth it? Although obviously this may not be the case. I would be interested to know how this turns out

Maybe an idea would be taking it in small steps and build up to it, such as going to a club first and just talking with people. Then maybe after some time she'd end up being as keen as you?!

OP, you sound very clear on what you want. You want to play with a bi guy or a CD and you want your gf to be involved too. It doesn't sound like you're willing to consider compromising in any way.

What happens if your gf is just as unwilling to do it all your way?

You're more likely to be able to work this out if you can each find some room to compromise.

If this is something you've wanted for at least 3 years already, I suspect it isn't going to go away if your gf says no.

That's likely why she's not open to sharing you, it means putting her in the uncomfortable postion of just meeting someone new from the start of she's really that shy

I recently discovered that my long term partner is bi and into cd. Was quite a shock but now we both dress together and I find it so erotic. He had an encounter once before we met and admitted Skypeing other cd men since we've been together. So I think those urges don't go away. Although we've never been swinging yet I do love the thought of seeing him with another man and want to be part of the event. It's scary but very arousing. I think him

Whispering what he'd like to happen whilst we're playing has probably sown the seeds! Maybe you should try that and see if it develops ??

the thing with any sort of extra person is communication. talk, discuss.

Boo was VERY much a no person at the start of things. it was discussed and the idea of me and another man giving her pleasure got her mind racing.

we talked more, set boundaries, she had her first MMF and loved it, we have now arranged our third and she wants to explore more things.

Time, communication and understanding each others point of view.

Hate to be so black and white about it but as a bi guy whos been in frustrating relationships because of this very issue....i can tell you with a fair degree of confidence, that this relationship wont last and if it does, you will feel unfulfilled for the rest of your sexually active life. In my humble opinion as a bi guy, you need to explain to her that you cannot go through life without airing this part of you that exists wether she likes that or not. Its one thing to be respectful towards your partner, its another to allow yourself to be repressed because of your partners insecurities. Maybe because of this biggie (and it is a biggie) you're just not compatable. More sensitively worded hard talk is needed.

YOU CANNOT PUT YOUR SEXUALITY TO ONE SIDE...IT IS NOT A CRAVING Do not listen to this persons advice, it could ultimately fuck you up. Do not bottle up your sexuality as you are clearly bisexual. This is a good thing and nothing to feel shane about, your sexyallity isnt a hobby

My main problem with this, for me, is that the OP not only wants to meet men, he wants his partner to as well.

Even if she were ok with him acting on the craving, he won't be happy unless she is involved too.

That's not just wanting to explore or fulfil his bisexuality.

It's fair enough to ask if she'll consider it but it's a very big expectation. For swingers this may seem very normal but it's not the norm for most people. The OP is going to have to be prepared to hear no from his girlfriend. I hope he'll accept it as easily as his "so be it" but I suspect it won't be that easy.

For those suggesting that the OP deserves, somehow, the opportunity to explore his bi side, yes, he does but only to an extent.

He got involved in a monogamous relationship and it's now him that wants to change the arrangement. To suggest his craving gives him a right to do that is ridiculous. His girlfriend has an equal right not to agree. His right to explore exists only outside the relationship. In the relationship, her wants and needs carry equal weight.

Bisexual people are attracted to both sexes but they don't have to act on it. It is possible to be bisexual and monogamous.

The problem here is that monogamy is no longer what the OP wants. If it turns out his girlfriend won't agree to what he wants, (which would be a very big ask for most people), he's got some serious thinking to do and some big decisions to make.

I'm not saying anyone should deny part of their sexuality but sometimes we have to make choices when other people want different things to what we want.

It's fair enough for the OP to say "so be it" if his gf says no but it sounds like he's already asked her (albeit a while ago) and hasn't accepted her saying no.

If she's shy I can see this could be incredibly difficult for her.

Posts that effectively say, "how can I persuade my partner to do something they've said they don't want to do?", never sit right with me.

Yea I don't quite understand that one either I'm bi but was in a monogamous relationship with a man for 9 years, during that whole time I still defined myself as a bi woman even though at the time I wasn't engaged in sexual activity with women. Yes I had desires still towards other women but did I and could continue to keep it in my pants if I were in that same relationship it's a choice you make, that was the right choice for me. That relationship worked for me regardless of my desires towards women. Unfortunately he desired other women too but went as far to fuck off with one so the relationship ended, 6 months later he came crawling back to be met with my middle finger

I think it's more that we understand the OP is bi but also that his girlfriend isn't interested in threesomes or sharing him.

Both are perfectly reasonable but in this case, conflicting.

The OP has no more right to explore his bi side, particularly with his gf's active participation, than she has to say no.

So he can ask but if she says no again, he's going to have to decide whether his desire to meet men is stronger than his desire to stay with his girlfriend.

I don't think anyone thinks being bi is a hobby but personally I do know it's a choice whether to act on it or not. Being bi doesn't mean you HAVE to have sex with both sexes.

It's a difficult situation for the OP. We have to remember, however, his sexuality isn't more important than what his gf wants.

As I woman I needed to understand the desire fully. We talked about it, when I fully understood. We started meeting guys for bi fun. I love watching, he always holds me or plays with me whilst having guys. I feel privileged he could share his needs with me. When he wants a cock we seek one out together.

I'm bi and although I haven't had a relationship with a woman, I could.

I have had two long term monogamous relationships with men though, throughout which I remained bi but didn't act on it.

She said no, there isn't a way of phrasing it that will make her say yes. Talk to her, don't push and find out if there's a compromise.

put the craving to the side and understand when she said she won't share means that she won't share. it doesnt go away..maybe you dont understand what its like to be bi...

I think it's more that we understand the OP is bi but also that his girlfriend isn't interested in threesomes or sharing him.

Both are perfectly reasonable but in this case, conflicting.

The OP has no more right to explore his bi side, particularly with his gf's active participation, than she has to say no.

So he can ask but if she says no again, he's going to have to decide whether his desire to meet men is stronger than his desire to stay with his girlfriend.

I don't think anyone thinks being bi is a hobby but personally I do know it's a choice whether to act on it or not. Being bi doesn't mean you HAVE to have sex with both sexes.

It's a difficult situation for the OP. We have to remember, however, his sexuality isn't more important than what his gf wants."

Totally agree with this

It won't go away but you'd have to decide what you want more! what live by someone elses rules for the rest of your life..err no...

Not quite what I ment, if this is the person he wants to spend the rest of his life with then is it worth throwing that away to fill a desire? Don't get me wrong hopefully he can get the best of both worlds and be happy but if she's dead set on no then he has a choice to make! you cant choose to be bisexual...you can choose to be bi playful..bisexuality is bisexuality..like being gay or trans..its not something you can switch on or off..sure you can suppress it..live a lie..but much better to not..life is too short not to feel alive..love should set you free not oppress you..

So someone who is bi can't be monogamous? Because they have to have sex with both genders?

I'm bi and although I haven't had a relationship with a woman, I could.

Yes I feel it's quite a ridiculous notion that being choosing to be monogamous it means you're no longer bi, which is what I feel has been implied.

I'm bi, but I don't crave women in our bed. I certainly don't feel any the less fulfilled for only sleeping with men at the moment. All that bisexuality is, is the ability to find both genders attractive. Which one I choose to sleep with doesn't mean I'm repressing the other side of me! I could spend the rest of my life only sleeping with one or the other and be perfectly fine with it.

OP, you have a choice, as we all have at some point. What is she worth? I personally have never stayed with someone who couldn't handle me sleeping with others, because I couldn't cheat. I have compromised on other major life decisions because my other half is far more important to me than whatever I have given up.

I personally wouldn't do it when you're next dressing up...you need to have an open and frank discussion with her about swinging. It is separate to your cross dressing. If you really can't handle the thought of never sleeping with someone else, you need to sit down and tell her how you feel. Then listen to how it makes her feel. Then weigh it all up and make your decision.

Tough situation and you have my sympathy. And hugs.

I am so sorry to hear your situation. It is very difficult and I can't really offer any advice. I know people are complicated and the world is not black and white. But it seems to me there are certain things that are. A relationship is all about concent and mutual agreement. There will be times when you can't agree or come to a compromise that suits you both. This is obviously a boundary she won't break. Sometimes to be with someone we have to make self sacrifices. So to me it boils down to you having to ultimately choose what you want more. I understand what a hard position this is for you but then sometimes life is a hard game. Wish you all the best.

Having been in relationships where I had to hide my bisexuality I would strongly advise anyone to embrace your own identity, regardless of the cost to your current relationship. My Mrs and I had 'the chat' at the start and I said it's not something I'll give up. She accepts it totally and loves watching me with other guys. Only you know the strength of the urges but just do what's right for you. We are here for a good time not a long time!

I'm sorry I don't buy this.

Bi sexuality, homo sexuality hero sexuality, and any other sexuality just doesn't come into it.

Having sex with someone else when you are supposed to be in a loving committed relationship, where your partner isn't happy with you, or themselves having sex with others is nothing short but cheating on said relationship, no matter what "urges" one might have.

Ahh, brill.

So everyone should just act on their sexual urges, irrespective of sexual orientation, by that account then....

That's the trouble. They didn't have the chat at the start of the relationship. ! She is acceptioning of your cross dressing. I suggest you pick a time when you are both relaxed and in a good mood and discuss ideas or fantasies.....what might be worth trying and what is a no no. Take it from there. Good luck

Im 100% bi but if my man wasn't wanting me to enjoy the pleasures of another lady with or without him id stop. It's called respect for my otherhalf.

My advice would be to bring it up, sooner the better, but at the right moment, I.e. When you can have a decent conversation about it and not be distracted. The longer you leave it, the harder it will be to revisit the topic.

stop asking us what you should do. Your girlfriend has been very open with you, she's broached the subject and is clearly trying to bring things out into the open. Talk to her she's shown you she's willing to discuss it, establish whether she wants to keep it as fantasy or make it reality and go from there.

Get her a strap on and a guys uniform, dress up yourself and have a bit of role reversal fun, might scratch some of your itches without over stepping any of her rules, and you never know might just start the ball rolling.
