Trouble communicating with wife about sexual fantasies

Recommended Posts

My wife and I are 42, married 19 years. We are not in the lifestyle. She has 1 rule... No anal. Otherwise she is game for whatever I come up with. Not much else is off limits. Toys, Role play, sex swing, BDSM, simulated MFM/Gangbangs, sex machine, etc. 

 

Although we have done some pretty involved and creative role play/simulations... she says she can't imagine doing the above with others for real. If I'm honest, the reality would be a big step for me as well. Yet, I tell her I'm not opposed either.

 

I have found that my fetish is whatever makes her aroused in new ways. I love the nuances of her sounds and how her body responds to a new sensation. 

 

She says she is perfectly happy with our dynamic. I create the scene and surprise her. I even find myself sounding silly for writing this as if it were a problem. 

 

We are tremendously transparent, collaborative and vocal about every aspect of our lives. But when it comes to discussing fantasies, likes/dislikes, collaborating on role play, etc... my wife shuts down or becomes flippant or gets a "how soon can we get this talk over with?" type vibe. She will say,"I just don't have anything to say." 

 

I don't press her to share more than she wants and there are probably way more layers than can be addressed here. 

 

So I suppose my question is...

 

Are there couples that have experienced a similar dynamic in their journey and how/in what ways were they able to be more expressive?

If you are not ready to play with others, don’t do it. While exciting, it comes with risk of rejection, awkward situations, STDs, crushes and stalkers. 
 

You could go to a club or meet a couple with the understanding that you will only watched and be watched. You will be closer to knowing if you want to play with others.

Thanks for the advice njbm. She did agree to let me plan a trip Desire resort last year but COVID hit so that idea fizzled out. She said she would totally be doing it for me. I was hoping that the environment would help her be more free to confidently express herself. 

 

The thing is, my wife is so intelligent and creative in every other venture, it makes me wonder how that same energy would look if applied to her own sexual desires.

This remark speaks to tremendous respect for your spouse. Bravo, it is foundational to all marriages, vanilla or otherwise. 

 

She seems fully content with fantasy and role play. Is there a reason for *her* to be discontent? How might she see the downside to feeling discontent? 

 

Suppose for a moment that she drives a perfectly safe car manufactured 12 years ago, runs fine, a few blemishes, does everything she wants it to do. You can afford to give her a brand-new whatever marque/make/model. You broach the subject, "Honey, we have the money, let's get you a new car."

 

 In many marriages, you won't get her to do so much as a test drive without a focused plan. There will be a reason to save the money, or she will be unsure of what the best choice is, or ...  . You will get "it runs, it's paid for, it does everything I need it to do or want it to do."

 

On the other hand, suppose you have eaten at pretty much the same restaurants in your area for some time. There's a couple of new restaurants that have opened up. You casually suggest trying one of them for dinner. 

 

In many marriages, you'll be tasked with making sure they can get you in tonight while she's getting dressed. 

 

What's the difference in the two scenarios? Is it "getting stuck with something you might not want or need?" Is it "cost" and the inability to just walk away? Is it fear that the "old and reliable" might pale in comparison?

She isn't the type that fakes an orgasm. And I'm not the type that needs her to for my ego sake. If she can't climax she will politely say so.  But that's not very often. So I trust it's not a fear she will find someone better. 

 

I would think if we got where we were to consider a real sharing or swap situation, the apprehensions would have more to do with the anxiety of logistics, safety, hygiene, unexpected emotions etc. 

 

However, her feelings on sex are a bit of a challenge to navigate as she is reluctant to vocalize her desires. 

 

I can't and don't complain much because she likes me to surprise her and that is so very fun. Perhaps that's truly how she just "let's herself go".  As I said, she is very intelligent and a researcher by heart. So it would music to my ears if one day she said, "Hey I was reading about ______ and thought you and I could talk and do  _____."

      Sue and Tom got it on.  He had her over the edge of the bed. His mind drifted into a wife swap scenario.  That got him harder. His wife started to orgasm as he held her down by the shoulder blades.
       
      Even as her spasms subsided, his thoughts kept going to another man having his wife.  Thrusting into her. He was living vicariously himself as he imagined his wife fucking anyone just for the raw pleasure of a horny fuck. So raw, so animalistic, so unavoidable.  Another man’s cock just to make her feel more like a woman, more feminine, wetter, more relaxed, more hypnotized for cock.
       
      Now he visualized another wife watching passively next to him as they both just observed as their spouses fucked each other like masters.  That made his back tingle with goosebumps, the prickly hair stimulating his whole body.  
       
      Now back from his fantasy it was he that plunged into his auburn-haired wife, her butt naturally swinging back in perfect frequency to his thrusts.  She loved it. Being taken.  He could tell. Now he could not slow down.  With a few more deep strokes his nuts contracted and shot as deep as he could make his pumped lightning go, repeatedly,  just the way she liked it, rough, hard, and animalistic, delivering his seed.  
       
      IF YOU WANT PART TWO, THE CHAT, LET ME KNOW.

      I'm starting this thread in response to one in the curious section where the author felt a little bad because his wife wasn't sharing all her fantasies with him. He said he knows they are not ready for swinging, in part, because of this.
       
      Well, here I am, swinging with my husband for 3 years, and it's gone very well. But, I still have a private fantasy place I go to (in my mind). I tell my husband things I want to try, we talk all the time about what we like about swinging sex and our sex. But, when he watches me touch myself and then says, "What were you thinking about?" I won't tell him.
       
      I don't lie, sometimes I tell him generalities. It's not about a specific person or people, it's not anything that really could or would happen in real life. It's not anything I want to try, I just find it hot to think about. But, I would be embarrassed to tell anyone, and it would make it less hot for me if he knew about it. In a way, I like not telling him, I like having a little corner of my mind that's all mine. On the other hand I feel a little guilty, because it's really not a big deal and he would like me to tell him these fantasies in great detail and would probably find them hot, too.
       
      But, believe me, I have told him (and many of you also) all kinds of silly fantasies, because I have a ton!
       
      What do you think? Do you tell your spouse everything you think about to get off?

      I happened across this study today, and it had some very interesting outcomes. The whole study bears reading. To tease you into reading it; "When asked whether they’d ever had various types of multipartner fantasies, just 5% of men and 13% of women had never done so" I.e., 95% of men and 87% of women in the 4k+ member study reported having fantasized about multipartner sexual relations. Wow! I expected it to be above 50%, but not that high.
