Hey everyone, I hope you're all good 😃
I have been with my wife since we were 11 and 12, we are childhhood sweethearts, soulmates and all the other saccharine cliches!
Anyway, one month after our wedding (after 19 years of courtship) she accidentally left an email account open, one specifically created for correspondence with a master - who, up until stumbling across the account, I didn't know existed.
I read all of the mails - over 365 - 1 a day for a year! I read how she planned to meet him in her wedding dress, how she longed for his penis, how her anus was aching and fizzing for him etc etc. Ugh!
The first thing I did upon reading this was ring her, furious and hurt. I kept saying to her 'you've been fucking another man' to which she kept responding 'Is that all that matters to you?' - I guess it wasn't all that mattered; psychologically there was a hell of a lot more damage being done by this, but the base emotion was 'My wife has been fucking another man, who has been giving her a sexual satisfaction that I haven't/can't'
Eventually, she just about persuaded me that she in fact HATED the sexual part of it - but was manipulated into believing that it was the final, essential part of the power exchange in an attempt to reach 'ground zero'. She kept referring to an innate need to be submissive and that those 6 or 8 hours with him gave her huge relief from all of her anguish and mental suffering and not 'a fucking 50 shades of grey scenario' as she puts it. She was so steadfast in her assertion that that this was a deep psychological thing i started to see why, on that night when I found out about this, she was so angry at me for focusing on the sexual side. Obviously, the sexual focus of her emails to him was just her telling him what he wants to hear; a key element of this.
She claims she hasn't cheated on me or had an affair and that she completely 'switched off' when he was fucking her in the arse... this has taken me 6 months of vehement persuasion from the person who I love and trust most to believe. She claims to value purity and fidelity as much a I do and feels what she did was from the purest place in her heart.
I met the guy for coffee, he is the antithesis of what she finds attractive - I mean the polar opposite. That made me feel even better. Turns out the poor bastard was just desperate to be an a alpha male and his whole life was focused on doing anything he can to project that to people. I sensed a very weak, insecure man. I'm not for one second suggesting that this is the case with all Doms and maybe that is just what I wanted to see...
However, every so often - I get those feelings of jealousy and hurt creeping back to me, especially when I stumble across BDSM porn or walk past Coco De Mer! Probably because most the stuff I see online or read about Sub/Dom stuff is inherently and almost purely sexual, with the other facets merely heightening the sexual side of things, as opposed to the other way round.
Anyway, I just wanted to see if there was anyone else out there who has a similar relationship with submissiveness to my wife's? I trust her again, after 6 of the hardest months of my life, but would like to put the final nail into the coffin of my suspicion.
Thanks so much xxx
