changing sexual wants

15 years ago

Where to start, well, we've been married almost 5 yrs., (second marriage for both). My husband had a medical scare, a couple of years ago, and since then, wants to try new things. Lately, it's having sex cam to cam with other "willing" couples. It really doesn't do it for me, and all he says is he wants me to be turned on, which will do the same for him. We have sex together, less often than the way he wants. The other people tell you what to do, how to pose, I am just not comfortable with it. He now is talking like it's over for us, because I don't like what he wants me to do.

PLEASE help with input!!!!!!!!!!!

"He now is talking like it's over for us, because I don't like what he wants me to do."

This is the issue, here, he wants you to do something, and if you don't he is leaving. Boy..that's a bit harsh.

He should be concerned about your welfare and happiness. By making vague threats to you, he is not doing that, and if he wants to talk you around this is not the way to do it.

Did you help him out when he had his medical scare, I presume you did, well, it's time for him to consider your distress about this situation.

If you are not comfortable with it and I don't imagine many women would be (but I could be wrong here?)

You shouldn't do it, and he should not use it as relationship blackmail. That is sexual abuse in my opinion.

You cannot run in a panic right now, you will scare Rhianna. If you scare her she will not talk, IF there are signs of physical abuse, by no means wait, But if there are no signs physically, then you must take things slowly and on her terms so you do not scare her and tramatise her more. calm talks are the best. She may not tell you today, she may not tell you tomorrow, BUT if she knows she can tell you and you won't freak out on her, she will tell you, trust me, she will. Listen to her, what she says and doesn't say...That sounds odd, I know but if she says something that just doesn't sound "right", it could be the clue to a talk. Again above all else, BE cALM. Deep breaths, Make her calm. Matter of fact terms, "Mom he showed me his pee pee"..Oh he did, boy that must have been icky, I wouldn't want to see that...calm not OH MY GOD, YOU SAW HIS PEN!S. One way can keep her talking, the other will make her clam up. All will/can be fine eventually. Remember too, she may not like him because he just isn't nice to her. And her moodyness may have nothing to do with him. Oh yes and remmeber with you talk to enforce upon her that if anyone says they'll hurt xxx if they tell, that they don't have to worry, you owuld never let that happen. AND if they promise anything if they don't tell, that is not the kind of secret to keep. Good secrets and bad secrets..good conversation for another time. Vickey-Mn

Harvey Weinstein Expose: Were You Ever Sexually Harassed?
Q
Comments (113)
From Lupita Nyung'o's (that was fun!) article. I find it quite prescriptive! She took the hit and survived because she was surrounded by a supportive community. "I was part of a growing community of women who were secretly dealing with harassment by Harvey Weinstein. But I also did not know that there was a world in which anybody would care about my experience with him. You see, I was entering into a community that Harvey Weinstein had been in, and even shaped, long before I got there. He was one of the first people I met in the industry, and he told me, “This is the way it is.” And wherever I looked, everyone seemed to be bracing themselves and dealing with him, unchallenged. I did not know that things could change. I did not know that anybody wanted things to change. So my survival plan was to avoid Harvey and men like him at all costs, and I did not know that I had allies in this. Fortunately for me, I have not dealt with any such incidents in the business since. And I think it is because all the projects I have been a part of have had women in positions of power, along with men who are feminists in their own right who have not abused their power. What I am most interested in now is combating the shame we go through that keeps us isolated and allows for harm to continue to be done. I wish I had known that there were women in the business I could have talked to. I wish I had known that there were ears to hear me. That justice could be served. There is clearly power in numbers. I thank the women who have spoken up and given me the strength to revisit this unfortunate moment in my past. Our business is complicated because intimacy is part and parcel of our profession; as actors we are paid to do very intimate things in public. That’s why someone can have the audacity to invite you to their home or hotel and you show up. Precisely because of this we must stay vigilant and ensure that the professional intimacy is not abused. I hope we are in a pivotal moment where a sisterhood — and brotherhood of allies — is being formed in our industry. I hope we can form a community where a woman can speak up about abuse and not suffer another abuse by not being believed and instead being ridiculed. That’s why we don’t speak up — for fear of suffering twice, and for fear of being labeled and characterized by our moment of powerlessness. Though we may have endured powerlessness at the hands of Harvey Weinstein, by speaking up, speaking out and speaking together, we regain that power. And we hopefully ensure that this kind of rampant predatory behavior as an accepted feature of our industry dies here and now. Now that we are speaking, let us never shut up about this kind of thing. I speak up to make certain that this is not the kind of misconduct that deserves a second chance. I speak up to contribute to the end of the conspiracy of silence."

Want to change the color of blue wall, but to what??
Q
Comments (20)
Since you just bought the house I would make the easy choice and paint the blue wall the same white as the other walls. Over the next 6 months decide what you love and hate about your new home. Decide what must stay (You either love it or can't afford to change it.) Think about the colors you love. Then think about how you want to use the colors in your home. Walls are huge and generally look better when they are painted in a more subdued color. There are exceptions, but in your space the blue is sticking out like a sore thumb. Way too vibrant and connected only to the two blue chairs. Add the bright colors through upholstery, art, sculpture, area rugs, décor. I am also not loving the combination of the floor and the backsplash. Too many yellow/orange/peach colors in the backsplash with the cooler neutral floor. See what it looks like if we cool it down. The counter seems to go well with the floor (at least in this picture) .

It is difficult sometimes for us to assess colors via the internet. What we see may not relate well to what you are seeing. How do you like Pavestone? It is not as gray, but still pretty neutral. This should have reduced the purple. Operative word 'Should'. Lighting is different on every home and geography.

to ad if my DH said that to me I'd tell him to go stick it somewhere else..BTW be cautious that if he has taped these experiences you get all copies & for goodness sakes don't tell him, just do it and then destroy them.

I doubt many women would want to participate in what you are describing, and I would imagine most would be quite willing to let him go and move on over something like this.

But you are clearly NOT turned on, so why does he persist? (That question is really for him, not you!)

He is utterly selfish and the idea of allowing another couple to tell you two how to have sex (and then even watch you!) is beyond disgusting. He needs to know that one element important for a woman to enjoy sex is usually her husband's being considerate of her feelings. You husband is not only demanding that you do something that you strongly dislike, he is, in effect, also demanding that you even like it, just so he can get turned on.

In addition to making sure there are no videos of you participating in these little "exercises," I strongly urge you to get tested for sexually transmitted diseases, because a man with so little sense of shame and modesty, and who is willing to subject his wife to any indignity and embarrassment purely for his own pleasure, may well be having some adventures outside his marriage.

these people might be typing you having sex and then posting it somewhere else on the internet or even selling it on porn sites. it is beyond scary. can lead to bad consequences.

Isn't it also possible for the people on the OTHER cam to record what you're doing? So even if your H doesn't record or distribute your "session", they very well could.

This man does not respect your feelings and I believe what he is asking you to do is extreme. If you both were in mutual agreement then do what you want, but that doesn't seem to be the case with your situation. If you haven't communicated to him how uncomfortable you feel with his request, now is the time. He's essentially asking you to have sex with other people, albeit virtually.

He is being very selfish and is trying to manipulate you by "talking like it's over". Ask yourself honestly what you love about this man, what you dislike about this man, and whether you could spend the rest of your life with him the way things are NOW. Don't think about how it could be great "if only".

Thank you SO much everyone. Now I wish I had the courage to have him read the forum. He certainly doesn't see what he's doing to me, and my feelings. I have felt so alone with this. I know I don't want my marriage this way.

Your husband is the one who should feel alone. Just remember - the other couple is supposed to be getting turned on by watching what you and your husband do (in addition to your husband being turned on by them watching). This other couple is watching a very private, intimate activity - - - you're being pimped out.

Suzie - I don't know the nature of his medical scare, but he may have some type of condition that is causing this bizarre behavior. I once had a neighbor who became obsessed with sex -all types of it. Eventually they found a brain tumor.

Never do nothing you are not comfortable doing.If he doesnt like your decision then he really does not care about you,and simply isnt worth it.

Sex is a couple "activity"...involving pleasure and joy for both participants...
If you like what he suggests and it turns you on....go for it!
If not....tell him no thanks....and file.

Got to give the guy credit for being honest with you about his desires. Especially if those desires are generally not socially acceptable. But let me tell you one thing I have learned: Sex is something that is so important and so personal that a couple really needs to enjoy the same things or eventually somebody is going to feel like they have been cheated out of their pleasure. When I married,20-plus years ago,my husband knew exactly what I liked. I assumed that,since he approved, he would also enjoy the same things. This was not to be,and I wish I had made sure he had the same fantasies as I before I married him.Seriously,your husband sounds like more fun!
