In this essay, a husband shares his six-month struggle to process his wife’s request for an open marriage, and how two years down the road it’s been beneficial for their communication, love, and affection.
Here are some amazing excerpts from the essay:
For my wife, the choice between honoring our vows and fulfilling her desires was a false choice, another trap. She knew how deep our love was, and knew that her wanting a variety of sexual experiences as we traveled through life together would not diminish or disrupt that love. It took me about six months — many long, intense conversations, and an ocean of red wine — before I knew it, too.
When my wife told me she wanted to open our marriage and take other lovers, she wasn’t rejecting me, she was embracing herself.
That was two years ago, and today we’ve never been happier, more in tune, closer, tighter, stronger. Whatever power I surrendered, I don’t miss. I wouldn’t recommend it for everyone, but I tell everyone it works for us.
It feels very adult, especially because it depends on open, honest communication. We take great pride in all the talking we do. I meet a lot of people who say they’ll never get married because they don’t want to get divorced, and hearing it always makes me sad, because they are cutting themselves off from the possibility of the magic that happens when two people share their lives. People don’t divorce because they can’t stand sharing anymore; they divorce because they feel like they can’t share enough.
This has been the great challenge of my open marriage: to draw strength from vulnerability. Doing so requires supreme self-confidence. You must first really, truly love yourself; it is the foundation upon which all the other love is built.
From everywhere comes the message that what I’m doing is for weaklings, losers, failures, pussies; that if I had money and status, I could keep my wife “in line”; that her self-discovery comes at the expense of my self-esteem. My open marriage has made heavy demands on my ability to silence the voice of doubt in my head, that gnawing feeling of worthlessness. But I find I can meet those demands, and that I am able to build my self-confidence out of nothing more than the basic dignity we all possess.
I’m grateful to my wife for pushing us to take this leap.
Have you seen this caption on people’s Facebook or Tumblr pages?
You know, usually on the page of your friend or relative who married a cheating douchebag, who then abandoned her when he was confronted? Yes, we can all agree that sucks. Nobody in their right mind would advocate for Mr. Cheato Jerkwad.
Yeah, this fills a need for them. It helps them imagine the love and security they never got from their partner. I’ll never ridicule them or argue on their timeline about it. They’ve already been through plenty.
What they’re trying to express with this caption is a deep-seated need we all have. They’re asking, “Will you be loyal to me? Or do I have to be afraid of losing you, too?”
We’re explicitly, totally against cheating. And we feel sorry for anyone who’s been betrayed.
Unfortunately, this caption also creates extremely unrealistic expectations. (Exactly as dumb and unrealistic as a lot of the ridiculous hotwifing captions you thumb through on here.)
If this is the measure of true love, you might as well hire an animator to paint you into a Disney movie, because this is a fantasy that doesn’t take into account biology, psychology, or the kind of development that occurs in the healthiest relationships.
Besides that, the whole thing is so vague. Who is “a psychology professor?” Is it a man or a woman? Are they American, Czech, Thai, or Hatian? Do they work at a big college, a community college, or a basement correspondence school? Did they say this in class, or while giving a toast at a wedding, or after watching a romantic comedy with friends?
It sounds more like somebody said something they really felt should be true, then looked for a way to give it some authority. “Oh, you know who people think are smart about these things? Psychology professors!” So they invented the fact that a psychology professor said this thing that they want to be true. It makes it feel more true.
But the statement itself is so absolute and one-sided. All people are absolutely monogamous demisexuals? Widows who still love their deceasing husband will never be able to get attracted to a living guy? Swingers who stay married for 60 years weren’t in love? You mean polyamorous people don’t exist? That’s pretty extreme.
Let’s get it straight: this isn’t a psychology fact at all. It’s…
a nice sentiment, like unicorns and Care Bears
a way for betrayed people to imagine what a better person would be like
guaranteed clickbait
widely believed, especially in conservative contexts (some churches teach things like this)
detrimental to people in real relationships
an extremist position
not something you’ll find agreeable to many real-world therapists and psychology professors
great for cartoons and Hallmark movies, but not for real life
So in conclusion, this meme applies in a way to cheaters and those they abandon. It’s completely irrelevant for most of us. And exploring our fantasies together in a loving, full-communication, functional marriage can go a long way to preventing people from even being tempted to cheat.
So ladies, keep checking out men’s butts, and be sure to tell your husband about it 😈. Guys, don’t start to develop needless anxiety because you read something like this caption.You’re both fine. Don’t let shit like this mess with your head. It doesn’t apply to us!
WATCHING MULTIPLE MEN HAVE SEX WITH THE SAME WOMAN STRENGTHENS SPERM.
Consider this: In a study in which researchers collected straight men’s ejaculate after they masturbated to one of two different pornos, they found that guys who viewed a gangbang scenario in which multiple men were having sex with the same woman released more active sperm than guys who watched a video of lesbian group sex. In other words, it seems that men are unknowingly increasing the sperm level in their ejaculate in response to the specter of competition.
This is one of the several reasons why so many husbands get turned on by this kink. He loves feeling possessive, and sharing only highlights that.
Husbands with this kink have a totally inaccurate reputation for not being possessive. For a lot of men, it’s a high-level possessiveness without jealousy. It’s almost like saying, “She’s mine, not yours—even if she lets you touch her, she’s coming right back to me.”
“I have something (actually some one) you’d love to experience. Will you get to touch her? Hmmm, that all depends on a lot of things…but I get to kiss her whenever. Because I’m a badass who’s married to this hottie.”
Hotwifing emphasizes:
The permanent, solid, immense value of the wife to the husband, that he’s incredibly infatuated and confident of his bond with her.
Her absolute desirability, that other men would want her like that, and that her desirability is a part of her, and that suppressing this desirability would be criminal.
The contingent, conditional, temporary value of other men outside the marriage—they have no innate relationship to her, only what she and her husband allow.
The wife’s conviction that her husband really finds her this desirable, and that she’s so confident about his commitment to her, and the realization that her relationship to any other man only emphasizes the permanent depth of their marriage commitment.
A crude, but effective, illustration I’ve heard elsewhere is that a man who values his wife like this can be compared to a guy who has a prized Lamborgini sports car.
This thing is a valuable, amazing possession. He’s going to be very possessive—don’t try to steal it! If you’re a decent and trustworthy person, sure, he’ll let you run your hand along the surface and sit in the seat. If you’re a really worthwhile person, he might let you go slowly down the driveway. If you’re really a special person who knows what they’re doing, he might sit in the passenger’s seat while you drive. But he’s going to be watching the whole time, and making sure you treat this prized possession better than they treat anything else.
And he has the satisfaction of knowing this car is his all day, every day. Letting you drive it and say “oooh, ahhh, amazing car” only reminds him that he’s the lucky owner.
Letting “her” go around the track once or twice with another driver only makes him more eager to get back in the driver’s seat of the car he loves.
Now, instead of a car a guy owns, replace it with a loving wife, a person who nobody actually owns and never really could. She chose him too, and loves him back. This is the woman he prizes above every physical object, whom he wants to grow old with. Nobody owns her, but he likes to feel like they willingly “own each other” in a way.
Just like that Lamborgini owner, he loves showing off his most amazing “prize.” Hearing someone praise her or get turned on by her would be scary if he didn’t truly trust that she loved him back. But he believes that they’re really meant for each other. Unlike a car, she loves him back—which really puts things over the edge for him. Like, a total wash of emotions!
Obviously, every metaphor has limits. This one? Be careful not to reduce a woman to a possession or an object. The lesson isn’t about her as some sort of possessed object. Please. The lesson is about the husband’s feelings. She can’t be possessed, but he still feels possessive. She can’t be owned, but he can get a satisfied feeling that resembles it enough to make it feel good.
It’s about all the trust and pride that goes with it.
This explains a little bit how so many husbands don’t feel jealous, but still feet super possessive of their relationships with their wife. People who jump right to jealousy without ever once trying to understand what jealousy means are missing something. And they’re not going to understand compersion, for sure!
Don’t mistake a lack of jealousy for the absence of care, love, and deep attachment. You can be very sharing and also very careful about your relationship.
Knowing that your wife turns on other guys can be incredibly arousing! But knowing she’s yours for life is priceless!
I have a feeling a lot of you are going to want to share this one. If someone shares this with you, that’s because it means something to them, so please do the courtesy of reading the whole thing!
First off, I want to acknowledge that wives often have various and complex reasons for reacting negatively to husbands who bring up hotwifing. That’s a valid topic for another time. This also isn’t for households with an abusive spouse who wants to force his perversions or sick desires in whatever way they enter his mind–those men are the scum of the earth. No, this is for you loving couples, where you try your best to do things right, and keep trying even when you don’t succeed the first time.
Today, I want to talk to the wife who hears her husband share his kink with her, and doesn’t stop to dig further. She doesn’t ask, “How difficult was it for you to tell me this? How much have you thought about this? How much does this mean to you?” I’m talking to the wife who jumps to conclusions and insecurities, or shuts him down without validating his opinion. Can I talk to you for a minute?
Dear wife, I imagine you love your husband a lot, and he probably loves you a lot too. In fact, he’s opening up to you because he loves you. He wants you to be a part of his life in every way, no matter how unusual society may say it is. And society may be the reason you shut him down. Have you been told all your life that it’s wrong to have sex with another man after you get married, and that it’s cheating on your husband if you do? Have you been told that this will kill your loving relationship? Chances are, this is where you’re coming from. These feelings make it seem impossible to imagine what your husband is really thinking.
In fact, I bet these values are more deeply ingrained in you than you imagine, especially if you haven’t sat and done introspection on why you think the way you think. So when your husband comes around and tells you he’s interested in this, it breaks all kinds of norms. You think, “Cheating!” And you think, “Wrong!” And you get disturbed, because he’s asking you to do that one thing you’ve always been told a wife should never do. This is where your imagination and insecurity gets fired up–if he wants you to do the worst thing of all, then, “My God, what else is he going to suggest?” You might not think it so much as just feel it deeply within. It feels wrong–so wrong.
On behalf of your husband, let me ask you to just stop for a moment and hear his side of the equation so you can communicate on equal ground. First, he probably has some idea of how weird this is to you, and it was even hard for him to admit it to himself at first. He’s battling with his own inherited values, which in this case run counter to his sexual desires and needs; he also fears your reaction. He doesn’t want to hurt you or scare you.
Second, his definition of cheating isn’t what you think it is. You both agree that cheating is a betrayal, a theft of love and intimacy from the one who rightfully owns it. Where he’s different from you is that–for whatever reason–he feels connected to you sexually when he imagines you being promiscuous, full of desire, and feeling flirtatious lust. Your promiscuity isn’t cheating, since he connects to you in that fantasy or act. It doesn’t mean he wants to be promiscuous himself, because if it would be a betrayal of you and your desires, then he sees it as betrayal too; he isn’t interested in betraying you. He isn’t interested in you betraying him either–he is interested in connecting with you by means of observation, fantasy, and wanton lust unchained.
I hope that’s clear in your mind, because it’s crucial to understanding him. He’s not asking you to cheat when he talks to you about sexual engagement (or fantasy) with other guys.
This brings us to the provocative title of this post. “Cheating,” sexually speaking, is betraying your spouse for others. It’s disregarding their needs and desires, and giving that part of yourself to others. Here’s the point: if social pressure or fear of others (parents, priests, friends) are the reasons you’re not willing to hear your husband out when he tells the thing that is most intimate to his sexual nature, he’s not the main person in your sex life.
You’ve invited a whole society into bed with you, and you’re neglecting him for everyone else that’s intruding into your sex life. He feels cheated, because you won’t even talk, read, or think about what’s on his mind.
Is that cheating? I’ll leave it to you and him be the judge of that.
However, I hope you’ll take the time to see how you might actually have things backwards when it comes to the idea of being faithful to the one you married. Not the idea of a husband you got from society and invented over time in your mind–the actual flesh-and-blood man you pledged to be with.
I’ll be saying more along these lines in the future, but I wanted to get this out TODAY so you could start thinking about it (and wives, please don’t be offended if your husband forwarded this to you–remember, more than anything sexual, he longs to be loved, trusted, and understood; please give him that at the very least).
Everyone already knows what jealousy is, some of us more intimately than others, but compersion is “a state of empathetic happiness and joy experienced when an individual’s current or former romantic partner experiences happiness and joy through an outside source, including, but not limited to, another romantic interest.” (taken from Wikipedia)
Other than the “that doesn’t work” knee-jerk reaction to polyamory or open relationships, the other excuse that gets automatically thrown out is “I could never do that. I’m far too jealous.”
Discussion over.
Jealousy is most definitely a strong deterrent to even entertaining thoughts of an open relationship. Believe me, if you had told me 10 years ago that I would be in a polyamorous marriage with my husband, I would’ve told you that you were certifiably insane. After all, I’m a triple Scorpio: highly possessive and intensely jealous by nature. Throw in some serious self-esteem issues and an crippling fear of abandonment and I was the last person anyone (including me) thought would end up in an open relationship. But here I am! Happily polyamorous and talking about it publicly, no less.
Do I still get jealous? You better fucking believe it.
Is it as crippling as it used to be? Not usually.
The root of jealousy is fear. Fear of abandonment. Fear that your loved one will find someone better, smarter, sexier, more awesome, more whatever. The problem with those fears is that they are all inside the jealous person. No amount of reassurance from your beloved on its own will quell those fears. You must take responsibility for your own fears and express them to your SO without making them solely responsible for those fears. Your partner in life, spouse or otherwise significant other, does have a responsibility for your heart as you do theirs, but ultimately that responsibility lies within yourself. They can support and reassure and earn your trust, but they can’t quell those fears on their own. It’s a team effort.
The death of jealousy begins in honesty and trust.
Once that trust is in place. Once you are able to say anything to your partner and they to you. Once you talk openly, honestly, and frequently, that jealousy begins to die. The love deepens past that you could’ve ever imagined, loving your partner so completely if for no other reason that they love you so completely for who you are.
It’s not an easy place to get to. It’s not luck. It’s not luxury. It’s months and years of work, sometimes tears, and intense vulnerability. It’s believing in yourself and in your partner. It’s believing in you as a couple. It’s knowing without a shadow of a doubt that the two of you will get through anything because you are a team. You’ve done the work. You’ve established a firm foundation of trust and honesty, and nothing will break that apart, certainly not sex with someone new. Sex is wonderful, but sex is sometimes just sex. Although sometimes it is sex and love, which can feel a bit more threatening, but it’s really not because once you get to that point with your primary partner, you also deeply realize that love is not finite.
Love breeds love.
Desire breeds desire.
And you will find yourself loving your partner even more, even when you thought that wouldn’t be possible, because they love you for who you really are, not who they think you are…not who they want you to be, but for YOU. And you love them the exact same way. From this place of deep love and trust, a sexual encounter or even a satellite relationship takes on a whole new meaning. It is more love for your beloved! It is allowing them to feel desired and be pleased by another person…because they deserve as much love and desire and fulfillment that they can handle.
Because you love them that deeply.
And that’s compersion.
You are happy that they are happy. You are thrilled that they had a new experience, felt the rush of desire in a first kiss all over again, enjoyed being touched only the way a new lover can touch…etc. Then they can come home and tell you about it, or not, and love you even more for allowing them both freedom and security. And you get the same from them. It’s really rather beautiful.
Compersion trumps jealousy every time because love always trumps fear, if you can find the courage to let it.
Hotwife Myths
Here’s a good post from a great blogger, Emma, who writes some great reflections on common misconceptions that men and women who are curious might have on the topic of hotwifing.
Myth 1: All Hotwives are nymphomaniacs
I guess the rationale behind this one is that if a woman needs more than her husband’s penis then she must be highly sexed. I’ll agree that a lot of fellow Hotwives do have a higher than average sex drive but that’s not always the reason they choose the lifestyle. I think only a small percentage of women became a Hotwife because their husband couldn’t cope with the demand. As I put it in my last blog post, Hotwives may be insatiable, but not necessarily just for sex. We have a hunger for the variety other men bring into our sex life.
Myth 2: The Hotwife’s husband must be a dud
Hotwives generally don’t get into the lifestyle because their husbands are awful in bed. If anything, it’s a man who is confident in his bedroom skills that can invite another man or two to share his precious wife. He knows the pleasure is in different lovers, not better lovers. He also knows that he only has one penis and there is immense delight in having more than one cock to appreciate at the same time. A Hotwife’s husband is therefore pretty darn awesome in bed if you ask me. He understands her needs.
Myth 3: A Woman needs Hotwife ‘Training’
What?? You’re either a Hotwife or you’re not right? I think the idea that a woman can be converted into a Hotwife is somewhat demeaning. I’m a shared wife out of my own volition. I don’t need to be coaxed into having sex with other men. I guess if the ‘training’ is meant to be an extrapolation of the dominant/submissive relationship, then by all means go for it. I personally don’t view what I do as putting myself in an inferior or subservient position to my husband, nor a superior one. We both equally enjoy me being a Hotwife.
Myth 4: A Hotwife must be in a bad marriage
Far from it. If a woman is in an unhappy marriage and agrees to sleep with other men, then I think it’s a last ditch effort to put some spark back into the union, or it’s already at death’s door. At any rate, it won’t last. Introducing other people into a couple’s sex life requires honesty, trust and the ability to communicate. If they don’t exist in a marriage then the couple has no business doing anything other than improving their primary relationship. It’s only when you have a solid base that swinging or Hotwifing can be enjoyed for the uncomplicated fun they are.
Myth 5: There must be something ‘wrong’ with a Hotwife
Maybe it sounds too good to be true for some men? Why would a happily married woman seek sex outside of the marriage? Is she a freak? Is she bored? Is she walking the road to self-destruction? The best thing to do is assume nothing about a Hotwife who invites you to fuck her. Take the offer at face value. There are no strings attached and if you decide to stop seeing her, then you don’t need to grow eyes on the back of your head for fear that she will axe you. Trust me, she’s moved on to the next able body. Hotwives are completely regular women who do regular things. In bed, she just wants a little extra on the side. No need to think beyond that.
In chatting with men and
fielding questions about the Hotwife Lifestyle, there are a lot of common
themes. A good majority of our followers
contact us to find out how to either bring up the idea to their wives or
partners, or how to get over certain rebuttals that their wives or partners
have made in order to not participate in the lifestyle. One of the biggest and most common themes is
the idea of “cheating” or “adultery”, either from a moral or religious
perspective. Man says he wants to share
his wife because it’s a huge turn on and fantasy, wife says “but that will make
me a cheater and cheating is wrong”.
Most of the time, that stops men in their tracks. They don’t know how explain their way out of that
issue.
“But if I’m the only one
sleeping with other people, I’ll be the cheater,” she’ll say. “And I don’t want you to sleep with other
people so you’ll be the ‘good’ one and I’ll be the one who’s forever done something
wrong.” (a common thing for a woman to think)
I do come from a
semi-religious background, and my family is pretty conservative. The idea of cheating was, well, very, very
bad. Then I got married…to a man who
ended up cheating on me numerous times. I
barely made it out of that marriage alive in many ways, at least emotionally,
and then D brings up the fact that he WANTS me to go out and do what, to me at
the time, was cheating. Well, this went
against all of my moral and minor religious beliefs. It was shocking that he had been cheated on
in his past, I had been cheated on, we both felt the immense pain of that, we
found each other and all was right with the world, and now, suddenly he wants
me to do the very thing that I left my ex husband for. It threw me for a loop mentally.
I’m by no means a
religious scholar, not a psychologist, but I am well read and I am fantastic at
research, so I started to look into the issue.
How did all of these couples, many of whom are actually “church going
people” or people with high moral standards that preclude the ideas of cheating
and adultery get into lifestyles like swinging, hotwifing, etc? There had to be some kind of answer, so I
started looking.
Adultery has many different
definitions, some deeply rooted in religious scripture and some that have
evolved over time. In “the old days” “Adultery”
was pretty cut and dry as “illicit sexual conduct of a married person or with a
married person” (at least that’s what the Greek classic writers had to
say). Over the years, the terms has
undergone some changes, and you can do your own research on it, but the most
common definition that I found was “sexual conduct outside of a marriage without
the knowledge of one’s spouse”. This is
where we bring in “cheating”, which is, by common definition, “an act of
dishonesty”. So, if we put these two
things together and truly look at them, we can surmise that a “Cheater” is
someone who goes behind their partner’s back for sexual or emotional gratification.
You do have to use a
little thought on this one, because definitions are never cut and dry, but
essentially a Hotwife cannot be a “cheater” because she is not doing something
dishonest behind her spouse’s back, rather she has expressed consent and urging
from her spouse to be with other men. Her
spouse or partner knows she is going on dates and consents, even urges, this to
happen. In a good majority of cases, the
Hotwife is actually “giving in” to something that was originally brought up by
her husband or partner, and whether she grows to like it or not, does not
change the fact that it was initiated by her husband and is done for her
husband. This is where we get into
honest and dishonest acts, and partners who are consenting to certain behaviors
and partners who do not consent to certain behaviors.
A Cheater would be
someone in a monogamous relationship who invited the gardener in for some hanky
panky while her husband was away at work, or someone who went to a motel with
that hot gym rat when she was supposed to be at Yoga class and kept it a secret. These things involve deception and there is
no “gain” to the spouse; they are selfish acts of infidelity. A Hotwife, on the other hand, has a spouse
who desires his wife or partner to flirt with that hot gym rat and get him to
take her home for some great sex so that he can get all of the details later in
order to become more sexually turned on or make the relationship “hotter”
and/or “better”.
The morality about
whether this is “right or wrong” is definitely a very personal thing. Some people simply cannot get passed the idea
that anything sexual outside of a marriage is wrong, or that any woman who
sleeps with another man, even if her husband or partner desires it, is taking
advantage of the man or committing an act that goes against a moral code. That’s absolutely fine, because this
lifestyle isn’t for everyone. But, it’s
important that people keep an open mind to the idea that everyone makes their
own definitions of what is right and wrong in a marriage or relationship, and
if both parties agree, then it’s their own “moral code”.
I will say that there
are some cases where coercion is involved and people, men and women, “give in”
to their spouse’s desires because they feel they have no other choice. This is unhealthy and is not condoned by anyone
who I know in the alternative sexual lifestyle community. Both parties have to be on board and at least
feel as though they are getting something of benefit out of the deal. D explained to me about a couple in his swinging
days where the husband would basically bring his wife to parties and “pimp her
out” and everyone knew that she was not enjoying herself – they eventually
split up. This situation would be wrong,
of course. As would a situation where a
woman decided to become a Hotwife because she felt as though if she didn’t she
would lose her man to something else – this *almost* happened to me when I was
married to my ex, back when I gave a damn whether I lost him or not. So, while this lifestyle isn’t for everyone,
it is wonderful for many couples and relationships. There are as many success stories as there
are failures, possibly more, and that’s about the same odds as any monogamous
relationship in this day and age.
So, when having that
talk about your fantasies with your wife or partner, remember to refer back to
the origin of the idea of Cheating and what it really means – it’s all about
consent and happiness for both parties.
The fantasy of having a “Hotwife” is growing, in fact, research
shows it is growing at a higher rate than a good majority of the other
lifestyle alternatives, including the old staple of “swinging” and the modern “open
relationship”. Why is it that a fantasy
that revolves around only one part of a relationship – the woman – going out
and finding pleasure from another man more intriguing to an increasing number of men than going
out and “getting some” for himself?
Basic psychology tells us that men are highly competitive
creatures. They have a drive to compete
with other males of the species for the best mate – this isn’t so much
different than what happens in the animal kingdom. Most men have an innate drive to compete with
other men when it comes to the “best mate” or the “most attractive woman”. With this being said, one of the reservations
of most women who find out about their husband or partner’s Hotwife fantasy is
that he is somehow “weaker” than the rest because he wants to give up his
position as your only partner. Is this
really true, though? Could the truth lie
somewhere within today’s man’s loss of natural competition in everyday life,
and a desire to maintain a level of competition after marriage or “monogamy”? Is this weakness, or rather the ultimate
confidence?
Cuckholding aside, because this aspect of the fantasy requires
a bit more in terms of a “woman led” relationship, and a bit more from the man
in terms of a desire for mental sadomasochism, a good majority of men enjoy the
idea that they have been able to “capture” the best mate and even when she’s
out having amazing physical and emotional experiences with men who may have qualities
that actually supersede their own – a better body, a larger cock, youth, more
prowess in bed – their woman actually WANTS to come back to them at the end of
the night. While most Hotwife-Husbands do
get some level of turn-on from the jealousy and the possibility that their Hotwife
may actually be enjoying their dates more than they enjoy being “at home”, the
overwhelming desire is the competition and the “win” in terms of having a wife
who chooses them again and again even after being allowed to go out and have
other men.
As Hotwives, we may be the focus of the fantasy, but there
is that deeper and more psychological desire of a man who, even after
committing to one woman, is able to compete with other males sexually. This is why the desire for “reclaiming” a
Hotwife after a date is so strong – it’s actually been scientifically proven
that men who are able to reclaim a partner after she has been with someone else
have an increase in testosterone levels, which means stronger desire, more
powerful erections, longer lasting erections, and an overall stronger sex
drive. So, what does this mean for us as
Hotwives?
He Enjoys the
Jealousy, Go with It
As women we’ve learned that inducing some jealousy can
actually be a good thing when it comes to dating – before we’ve found our “person”. We use our female prowess to keep the men who
we are seeing guessing…why? Because they
seem more interested in us when it seems as though we may not be 100%
there. So, if this works in the dating
world, why wouldn’t it work once we’re married?
In contrast, women typically don’t respond as well, or in the same way
to jealousy – we tend to worry, question, and sometimes shut down if we feel that
he might be “just not that into us”. Naturally,
because of our own feelings on the matter, we tend to avoid making our men
jealous once we’ve committed to them, because we, ourselves don’t want to feel
as though we’re in constant competition with other, more attractive, sexier,
younger, etc., women. Why would we do
something to the man that we love that we, ourselves, would hate?
For men, though, and especially those with Hotwife
fantasies, jealousy is a big component and tool for us to keep our men hot and
bothered. Sometimes just the mere
mention of being flirted with by that cute guy at our favorite restaurant, or
our interest in the sexy personal trainer at the gym is enough to send our men
into a sexual frenzy. It doesn’t take a
lot to feed the fantasy. It’s not ALL
about dates and recounting how well we got worked over in the bedroom (and how
much we loved it), though that is the ultimate turn on for our men, it’s also about
the little things – the mention of our interest in someone else, the sexy
messages that we send to potential lovers or Bulls, the “tease” of how much we
loved what our last Bull did for us and how much we’re looking forward to doing
it again. Remember, this ignites the “competition”
element of things, which is natural for men.
The More You Enjoy
it, the More He Enjoys it
You may be thinking, “But I’m doing it for him, I’m not
doing it for myself” (a common theme by A LOT of Hotwives), but in reality, our
men WANT us to enjoy our encounters.
They want to hear about what this “other guy” did for or to is that sent
us over the edge, and yes, they want to hear what we liked better about the “other
guy”. I know it seems crazy, because we
don’t want to imagine our men, even if we did allow them to be with other women,
thinking that their “others” were better, sexier, hotter or had something that
we don’t. That’s because we don’t have
that “competition drive” like our men do.
Let’s face it, despite what our men tell us – “It’s all
about your pleasure” or “I don’t get anything out of it unless you’re enjoying
it, because I love you so much” – this isn’t some ultimate “unselfish” thing our
men are doing for us. These things come
out of their mouths, but what they are really saying is “I want to know that
you came three times while he was fucking you, and you STILL want to come home
to me”. It’s their kink, and we have to
understand it.
So, if you’ve actually taken the step into the world of
Hotwifing, you’re going to have to learn how to properly tease your man into
believing that, just maybe, your Bull was better than him in some ways. Whenever you think “But I’m only doing it for
him”, follow that us with “I’m doing it for him and he WANTS to know that I absolutely
enjoyed it”. Find some aspect of your
encounter that was mind-blowing, and recount, in great detail exactly what it
was that sent you over the edge. This
may require a little bit of embellishment, and that’s OKAY…trust me…embellishment
is your friend in this situation. Tell your
man about your Bull’s amazing cock, how good if felt, how good he tasted, how
fantastic he was at oral sex, etc. These
are the things that will ramp up that competition streak in your man and make
him want to reclaim you with increased vigor and desire.
The More You Want
Someone Else, The More Your Man Wants You
Again, you’re playing on the competition and the teasing
aspect of things here… The more that you
act as if you WANT to be a Hotwife, the more that your husband or partner is
going to WANT you. His desire for you is
going to skyrocket, his sexual desire for you is going to make it so that he’s
ready to chew his own leg off to get you back in bed. I have experienced this firsthand many times…if
I am completely honest about an “encounter” and admit to “D” that my Bull was
lacking in some way, or I didn’t quite “get there”, he isn’t nearly as turned
on as when I tell him about how amazing things were. I don’t like or believe in lying, but I do
advocate for being selective and stretching the truth…maybe your lover wasn’t
the best at giving oral sex, but maybe he was an amazing kisser, so a good
answer would be “he was amazing with his mouth” and leave the rest up for interpretation.
We’re women. We are
strong and capable and we are smart. And
the truth is, this is a GAME we are playing for and with our husbands/partners,
so we need to get our heads into the game.
Furthermore, this is an intellectual game, and we need to use our intellects
to get to where we want to be. Where do
we want to be? We want to have a husband/partner
who is absolutely drooling over us, believes we are the ultimate sexual
goddess, and in is jealous enough to realize that in order to “compete” they
will need to step up their own game in order to “keep” us satisfied – be that
with amazing sex, extra romance, other rewards, or all of the above.
