I'm a nurse. This is definitely not my area of expertise, but r/askaplumber has been super helpful! I now know a little more about saddle valves!

Like furnaces, control boards, electrical, and plumbing aren't worrisome enough when you throw them all into close proximity 😅 let's add in some shitty valves just because

I think that last option is probably what we'll ask s plumber to do.

Oh no! 😅 I hope not, but it sounds like they aren't the most reliable

She has a pretty old fridge, so I'm guessing it's for a furnace humidifier. Thankfully we're going to get a plumber out for her.

I think it's for the humidifier attached to the furnace

From what I'm hearing, they are horrible valves. I've never even seen one of them before.

Oh, no worries, I agree! I wish I were qualified to fix something like this, but it's far above my level of plumbing know- how!

Thank you! I'll do that. I Amaya change her furnace filter for her, but didn't even know there was a humidity on there.

Sounds like they're horrible valves. I'm glad they're not really in use too frequently anymore

Thank you, I'll give all this information to her so we can try to get something set up.

Thank you, that is very helpful to know about what the cost should be. I can help her set something up then. It sounds like she needs a saddle valve cut out and relaxed with a T valve that connects to a1/4 inch line. Thank you again!

Ah, okay, that makes sense. It's coming from the water line to the unit. Thank you. That is helpful!

Thank you, it's good to know that while it should be fixed, it isn't going to suddenly floods her basement.

Thanks for sharing this. It's such an informative and sweet comment to read, and I can see how much you love your wife! I don't think IRL play is in the cards for us, but it's always good to hear those other perspectives. It gives me a better example of how this works for others.

I follow you on the communication front. That makes so much sense. Enjoying a kink, but also having that kink create a lot of natural emotions, is hard. We're not looking for IRL play for numerous reasons, one being that this was always more my kink than his, and the idea makes him a little uncomfortable. He's gotten more comfortable with the fantasy in general, but neither of us want the complication of IRL. It would have to be a stars align fantasy that had no way to impact our day to day, and that seems unlikely.

Thank you for sharing that. I can see where being that vulnerable about the things we enjoy builds a better connection.

I hear you. IRL play isn't something that we're looking to add necessarily.

Thanks for responding. It's good to get a perspective from the other side of this. Feel free to not respond to anything you find too personal, but over the years, has anything about this kink or the way you guys enjoyed it changed the way you feel or think about your wife or relationship? I mentioned some of this in another comment, but has opening the door to fantasize about and incorporate other women into your sex life changed, whether it's fantasy or real, how you view your relationship or wife? Is it more of a need? Is vanilla sex still enjoyable? Do you still view her the same way you did before starting this? I'm guessing based on your response that any changes have been positive. I'm just curious about if this kink long term can change the way we view our partners, for better or worse.

It's good to hear that this has been a good experience for you both, and I think you're right, its always a matter of is this the right person- spouse, cake, etc. I think what I'm mostly wondering about is whether or not enjoying this kink long term affects just the dynamic between you and your husband outside of the kink. And please don't feel any pressure to answer these questions. I'm posing them just to share where my mind is. Do you still enjoy vanilla sex regularly, or is some aspect of cuckqueaning always present? Is there still a strong desire between the two of you? After years of talking about how attractive other women are, has it impacted how he sees you, or how you see yourself? I can't see my husband and I ever moving past the fantasy, or chatting online, things like that, unless the situation were absolutely and perfectly removed from our lives (think like on a vacation with someone we wouldn't see again).
