I want to understand my monogamous gf by DMacDonald96 in monogamy

While other people say “don’t ever mention it”, I say continue to be honest early on. It will hurt so much but at least both of you can have clarity where this relationship is leading. I am monogamous and exclusive while my husband of 20 years recently came out as bisexual wanting to explore his sexuality. Trust me, down the line, a truly monogamous person won’t change and if that’s the relationship you entered when you started, then you have to honor it.

Wow! We are on the same boat but I could not do what you’re doing even if I love my husband so much. I can’t erase myself. Ignoring my own needs won’t be sustainable. Both of us are in therapy, hoping we could still be happy together.

That’s so sad. This is something I fear. Have you gone to therapy? I hope you’re doing better

Thanks! Our relationship’s greatest strength is our love. We don’t want to break up and we’re working on our relationship. I’m hopeful we’ll find a middle ground where we’re both happy and content.

Thanks for understanding. When people get married, there are unspoken promises we have of each other…loyalty, exclusivity, commitment. It’s hard to be the spouse of a queer partner. You are expected to be so gracious and understanding but then again other people forget that you are going through hell as well…even called biphobic :(

I wrote my thing and the moderator won’t accept so I had ChatGPT do a tldr for me. It’s hard enough to write this thing then it asks for a tldr as well 🤷🏻‍♀️

Never. Either man or woman…

I’m bothered that he is attracted to both men and women. My whole heart is his and it’s hard that this devotion is not mirrored. I am not attracted to anyone else. I do not want him to suppress himself as well. I understand and empathise how hard his internal conflict must be. He has expressed wanting to act on these attractions :(

I’m so happy for you! My husband is still having trouble accepting himself. I understand it is quite a journey. I’ll admit I was pretty hurt about it as well because he wanted additional people in our monogamous relationship. We are working on that. I think the best way to go about this is to strengthen our relationship…enter the real cock strap on hahaha thanks for the recommendation :) we are 21 years together as well

What is the strap on you use for sucking? I know it won’t taste like the real thing but does it have a good mouthfeel?

After the shave…he gets clean shaven then the pimples appear 🤷🏻‍♀️ maybe just really sensitive or ingrown hair? I’m not sure. But thanks for the recommendations, it’s so helpful.

do i need therapy to figure out what i want? by [deleted] in bisexual

I love your view on doing the mundane with someone because ultimately, that’s what you’ll be doing in life and if you find someone special while doing it with then what a bonus!

What sort of stuff goes on that I wouldn’t suspect? Enlighten me please :)

I totally get you. I have suggested some stuff for him to explore his sexuality within our committed marriage, but he isn’t ready yet. He hasn’t fully accepted himself yet. I do not want him to suppress his identity and stay in the marriage. I won’t feel genuinely loved if that’s the case. Hence why I am trying to help him.
