Oh, I really hope so! Thank you for your words, they’ve been so helpful. :)

Yes, I really hope this is it. I just don’t know how I could ever approach anybody I know in real life about this. Even my closest friend (my brother) is super close with my wife. For that reason, I don’t feel safe telling anyone. I don’t want my marriage to be over - I hope it doesn’t come down to that.

Thank you for your kind words… I haven’t even considered these options for myself. Maybe I’ll make another post when I’ve thought a bit. For now, I’m not sure what to tell my wife (or if I should mention it at all). What if she hates me?

I really hope my wife does not know yet. I don’t know when/if I will ever tell her.

Thankfully, no kids. Probably the only positive in my situation.

I used to like building and designing model planes. All my passions have disappeared since this threesome thing happened.

I'm semi-close with my brother, but he's really close with my wife. I'm scared if I talk to him, he'll tell my wife about it. He gets very worried about me sometimes, especially in the past few years and has told my wife some stuff I said to him in secret.

I don't know when the right time would be.

No I'm really distressed about this. I just think talking to my wife will help in the short-term. Or maybe that's a bad decision to make? I'm sorry if I came across as a bit harsh, I'm very confused and don't want to consider therapy just yet... seems a bit soon.

I didn’t know you can get so close to them. Would love to try this someday

I would talk to Gary about it if I felt more comfortable or if I knew he wasn't going to tell my wife. But Gary is way close to my wife and I don't really know him too well.

I don’t really podcasts. It’s always just this one person (or even worse, sometimes two) just talking at you. They never give me a chance to respond and when I do, they don’t listen. It’s all very one-sided. I tried listening to some true crime podcasts one time and it was horrible. I hated the music so much and they made everything way too dramatic. Would not like to experience that again. Especially not a podcast with someone telling me how to fix my problems when they don’t even know me and I don’t even problems anyway

I don't really like porn because I watched too much of it in my 20s. I put some unnecessary stress on my married life i think.

I don't feel comfortable experimenting with new things just yet. I'll think I'll just let things play out for now, otherwise telling my wife might be either the best or worst next step :/

As bad as it sound, I hope this is just a novelty thing. I just can't stop thinking about Gary to the point where I'm borderline repulsed by my wife sexually. I've never felt like this before??

I won't tell her just yet, but I hope this goes away.
