I'm going to discuss all of this with my therapist, unfortunately I have to wait two weeks before I see her again. I have to figure out how to tell him, perhaps I'm setting myself up for something that's not going to be as bad as I think. Or at least that's what I'm hoping. Because I can't go on like this, the silence is just making it worse on me.

As far as masturbating, fantasizing, etc., I've been doing that ... and I don't think it's helping. I've been extremely hypersexual the last week & trust me, it's all I've been doing. A friend of mine is worried that I may be manic, but I have no other symptoms. Anyway, yes, must discuss it. Must must must, before I do something I regret.

There doesn't have to be a reason, it might simply be part of your sexual orientation, a need. If there is a reason, you might be able to do something about it by addressing it. If there isn't, well, then you are going to have to decide what you fear more. Your husbands reaction to you opening up to him about what is going on inside you, or the rest of your life with this desire, unfulfilled.

Telling him, and seeing what comes of that, or not telling him, and going on as you have, and maybe finding a way to numb it with ice (masturbation, pornography, writing erotica, fantasizing while having sex with him, role playing, perhaps)... that's really all I see.
