Hello, my own light bulb. I'm sure that's why my sneaky male T has engaged in a fair amount of self disclosure with me. And he does this very deliberately as a GUY of all things, because he knows it is my explicit goal to be more emotionally intimate with my H. He's not just humanly disclosing, it is always himself as a man, either in relationship to his wife or some experience where his maleness is relevant.
