... and any BBWs who might be able to provide some insight.
I don't know if this is the right board, but it looked the most appropriate.
My situation is this:my wife and I were separated for a year (she had and affair), and have now been back together for a year. During this last year, we have been receiving counseling. One issue is that we are very good friends and wonder if that's all that's required for a happy marriage. We both see staying together as a married couple and living separately as just friends as two viable and possibly equally desirable options.
Why am I posting this on a Dim board? My wife and I were married very young, and during the course of our marriage I have come to accept myself as an FA (My wife is not a BBW.) My wife knows that I am an FA and that she does not excite as much as BBWs do. An obvious positive side to divorcing would be that I would be able to pursue relationships with BBWs.
I do feel guilty that I am placing so much emphasis on the sexual side of things,but I wonder if I am going to regret later in life that I did not pursue my passion.
So I have the following questions. Is feeling passionate about your partner a requirement for a happy and satisfying marriage? Has anyone else been in this situation, and what did you choose? Were you happy with your choice?
thank you.
