She initially told me she was ok with it, then changed her mind when the opportunities arose. Now I'm torn between my own selfish desires and the life we've built together.

They're known as 'unicorns' for a reason. Where I live you aren't exactly tripping over women that want to be a mistress or join a threesome. My single friends sometimes have 'friends with benefits', but they are other singles - they aren't fucking around with couples or married guys.

We met in our 30s and I wasn't going to put our life on hold until the chance arose to test it. She genuinely seemed to want it - the constant, unprompted, dirty talk about me with other women when we were intimate really had me sold.

I know I'm cooked now. I was just commenting on how much less cooked I would be, in the same exact situation, if I were gay.

Maybe it's a location/age thing, but I missed out on all that. I always made it clear up front what I wanted, and they'd often indicate they're on board initially - until things got serious or an opportunity actually presented itself, then the insecurities came out and suddenly it's all "Am I not enough for you!?"

In the latest case she really had me convinced, even though an opportunity never arose to put it to the test. Told me she was bi, said she wanted to see me with other women, said she was cool with an open marriage - everything I wanted to hear. It was only after marriage & kids that it became apparent she was NOT actually ok with it.

Funny that you're having the opposite problem. Grass is always greener...

From what I've seen the gay community is full of 'friends with benefits'. Seems pretty great. Sometimes I resent being straight, where monogomy is basically the only option, and any attempt to break out of it would make me look like a creep.

I'm a combat veteran and this has been my experience. The guy we put on full-time kitchen duty because we didn't trust him with a weapon was the loudest braggart around civilians.

I'm convinced we'd see a noticeable drop in shootings, rapes, and other violent crime - as well as huge downtick in subscriber's of manosphere rhetoric - if sex work was legal and sexuality itself less demonized.

So much of the iridescent rage in our world seems to stem from the simple reality that a subset of men just can't get laid.

People that try to shame or attack others for their preferences come off as sad and petty to me at best, and borderline fascist at worst.

There's endless systemic injustices and harmful ideologies to spend your energy fighting - stop trying to convince me to be angry at age gaps, men that prefer shaved armpits/pussies, women that prefer tall men, etc, etc.

I swear some of these people still want fascism, they just want it on the opposite side of the spectrum.

Air & water is what carries most of the heat away. Putting server farms that need to stay cool in space makes 0 sense. Space isn't necessarily "cold" like people think.
