You are not the first person to suggest polyamory to me after hearing that story. I have considered (am considering) it. My hesitations are mainly myself and not my partner. Somehow I feel like she’d have an easier time than me with it. I’ve always been monogamous. I’ve had periods of time when I was single, earlier in life, but even then, it was one person at a time. Polyamory would be all new territory for me.
I find that I need some form of connection with a person to be sexual with them. I had chances to be super promiscuous in my 20’s but it never appealed to me. I need to know the person a bit before we start anything sexual. I think that goes for masc and fem attractions for me. Even in my fantasies, me and the guy are coming back from having a drink to his place or he is offering me a massage. Sex for me is personal. I was attracted to a guy at the supermarket the other day just because he was a single dad and had missed a part of his own hair when shaving his head (in the back). I wanted to help him cut his hair, rub his shoulders, and tell him he was doing a good job , and then I had him naked (in my mind ofc), before he was done paying.
I can’t figure out how to work this into my marriage though. My wife’s libido is lower than mine and we both know it. I don’t want a conversation to make her feel inadequate. This isn’t about any failing of hers, she is incredible. I don’t want to ruin what I have by going after more. Also, I am who I am.
My story, if you’re interested :)
Thank you for your story! I really enjoyed reading it. I am interested and definitely want more. I’ve been hyper sexual most of my life so I’m intrigued that you didn’t really feel sexual attraction until your 20’s. Tell me more about what demi means to you. I have a younger family member that identifies as demi and I’d like to understand that better. Anything else you’d like to share is welcome also.
Thank you. I appreciate the perspective. It’s a valid point.
I agree but it is a bit more than just feeling like I missed out. My wife is bi also and has 2 guy fantasies. If I got lucky and found a bi guy that would play with both of us, it’d be the best way to dip our toes in the water. I’m not going to take big risks though and I’ll only do things my wife is fully on board for.
