Bag said: SSMGuy. You will never get sound advice from the folks on a forum like this one UNLESS you are honest and accurate in the story that you tell us. Otherwise, you are wasting everyone's time -- yours and ours.
At this point, I strongly suspect that your primary purposes in being here are partly to vent, but also to meet and talk to those 'HD women' that you are so fascinated with and keep asking us about. Along those lines, your claims to be in an "open marriage" and seeking "FWB arrangements" amounted to a bit of trolling on your part, with those 'HD women' you wanted to talk to in mind.
I am glad this has been said.
Consciously or not, you are on the hunt, even here, and I can't tell if it's all fantasy, or if you'd back it up w/action, but it's in there...
Who knows what really is going on w/you? Your earlier posts indicate you have gone outside the m. Whatever...you think the only options are going outside the marriage or staying stuck...that's up to YOU. No one told you to "pray this away". We simply don't know what you want from us since you insist you have tried everything.
And yet you also say the situation is NOT fine with you.
So we offer advice but Then you say "but the marriage is great in other ways" & you ask "why isn't that enough? Why isn't THAT marriage fine?"
IT IS FINE...IF it is fine.
So Which is it SSM? Fine or not fine, with YOU? If it's not fine then you must Do something about it. IF it is fine, then accept it.
The next words from you will either be
"I already did that" OR something beginning with the word "But"....
and we go back to the circle again.
