So first of all do your SO know?
I would like to hear you story first.
Well, sorry guys. There is no story as of yet.
I am married for three years and wouldn't have imagined were my mind strays now a few years back. The thing is, I am absoultely sure that she is the one. I probably couldn't really complain about our sexlife either. Well, it is not that important for her as it is for me, but she tries to accomodate my demands (nothing that you coulnd't see in a standard AV).
Yet still, I guess you guys can understand that the drive to have sex with others is still taking me over sometimes ... actually quite often. I found that disturbing for a while. I catch myself all the time mentally undressing girl on the street, sometimes even when we are together, too often it distracts me from work even. It may be just too easy to be distracted in this city full of cute girls with dangerously short skirts.
For a while, I thought I am just not into here enough. I don't think so anymore though. For me, and I guess for many here certainly, sex and love are just not necessarily connected. Still this constant urge really bothers me.
Now I really want to avoid sliding into an affair sometimes. That is not what I am looking for at all. I am not looking for propping up self esteem, don't need feeling involved, don't need to prove myself anything.
So I thought going to a pro from time to time might even be a better choice, letting of some steam, and being able to focus on whom I want at other times.
Now, I guess what I really want to know here is: is that a realistic expectation? From your experience, is the sex drive getting less urgent better when you're with a pro once in a while? If that would work to some degree, and make me a better husband in the meanwhile. This might be some sort of solution, though not perfect in the moral realm we grew up with.
Maybe I am just looking for excuses, but thought this is the place where I could get the most honest replies ...
