I am 27 and have been with my husband since I was 17 and we got married at 18. I have always been attracted to women and have been with a few and I loved it. I just don't know how to tell my husband that I want a girlfriend. I'm afraid he will be mad. I just don't know what to do.... Help please

i imagine he will be upset. you dont make it clear that you want to end the marriage to have a girl friend or not. if you are unhappy with your husband and will be happier with a girl, then the best thing to do is to let him know that this is not what you want anymore and it is time to move on. there is no avoiding getting upset and hurting over this.

Are you sure that your desires to be with another woman isn't just "sexual appetite" or "lust"? There are many reasons for attraction to someone. Perhaps it is just that you want to need something specific from women that you can't get from your husband.

I ask this in all honesty because I personally am bisexual, and have been married to my wife for 18+ years. Sexually I prefer men, my first sexual relations as a teen were homosexual. I find sexual intercourse with my wife (and women in general) to be complex, stressful and anxiety filled...whereas with guys is easy, smooth and exciting. However, my life is much more than just sex and I am so much more fulfilled with my wife and family. Sure, she doesn't have a penis (which is what I want), but she is more.

I guess I just want to make sure that what you want is actually more than just sex, and that if you were to leave your husband for a woman, that you would actually be getting more. Either way, you should be honest with your husband...if you have these thoughts and desires, even if don't act on them you should probably tell him you have them. I told my wife three weeks into us dating that I was bisexual and we are still together.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
