I love my wife, we have sex weekly and our relationship is otherwise great, but I literally crave having sex with other women. I'm thinking of having fun on the side of my marriage. Has anybody here been in this situation(or similar ) and regreted it or not?
Go ahead and call me an asshole.
I've been married for 2 years and I'm currently involved in what many would call a tumultuous marriage. I've been in a situation where I wanted to cheat...very badly...with a girl who went through a failed marriage of her own. It's very enticing to explore opportunities with other women when you and your wife AREN'T having sex for months on end, you are constantly arguing, and your wife is generally in a miserable mood for 5 days of the week and there is literally NOTHING to you can do help her.
The funny thing is that I hated being in the dating circuit a couple years ago and desired something serious. But once you get involved in something serious like marriage, you start to desire things you don't have the ability to do anymore - like simply drop the broad when she is giving you problems and claim no responsibility.
What you need to do is try to find what it is that attracted you to your wife in the beginning. Focus on all the great qualities that she has, and do a self-realization check and accept that you aren't perfect either.
Hang in there - DON'T CHEAT. It takes a bigger man NOT to cheat. Marriage is motherphucker but it also brings many great things.
