My name is Chet Sanders, and I am going to relate the story of what happened to me in the 24th year of marriage to my wife Maggie Sanders. I'm still not certain what started the chain of events that led to the weird happenings of that year. It was so out of left field that even now approaching my 50th anniversary I shudder to think of how it might have ended differently. All I know is that even though I can not prove it I know that my actions that year to fight fire with fire saved my marriage. Maybe my story will help someone else in a similar situation.
I met Maggie Brower at a fundraiser. It wasn't love at first sight or anything like that but to make a long story short we eventually fell in love and were married. Maggie worked in interior design and continued to do that while having our three children. During her first maternity leave, she had started to work online and by the time our three children were in school, she had moved solely online. Maggie worked at home on her blog as an interior design influencer. I could not believe how well she did with that. She didn't make as much money as I did with my business machine store, but she did very well considering she had almost no overhead.
Myself, I quit my job to start a business machine store shortly after we married. As time went on the selling and servicing of fax machines, copiers, and the like became less, and computer sales and service became more of our focus. I hired good people, paid them well, and made sure our customers were well taken care of. That business allowed us to have a good life, own our home, and send our three kids to college.
It had been great being a parent and my wife and I had been involved, not helicopter parents but involved. I had coached some of our children's sports and my wife had been an awesome mom. We didn't live through our children however, and nor was my wife's identity wrapped up in our kids. I wasn't a workaholic, although I did work hard. I tried my best to maintain a balance between home and work and I especially worked hard to keep the flame of passion alive in our marriage. Maggie did too. When we became empty nesters in June of our 24th year married the first six months were great! We acted like we did before we had children, naked Saturday, lingerie Friday, oral Monday, you get the idea.
Now we never had been much for doing things apart. Maggie sometimes went out with her sister Martha who lived in the same town as us but no girls' nights out or separate vacations. We would certainly go out on dates regularly through our first 24 years and sometimes we went out with friends or attended parties. Martha was married to a nice guy named Jim and they were the people we saw the most. Yet mostly it was the two of us. As far as I could see at this point we were in a good place.
Then something happened. I'm not sure what but It led to a period in our marriage when I started to question Maggie's love for me and whether or not we would make it to our 25th. We had a great sex life I thought. Even before we were married we had agreed to give due consideration to anything the other person suggested in the bedroom. We didn't just try whatever the other person's idea was we discussed it and made a decision to do it or not. Sometimes it required research, sometimes soul searching and sometimes it was a no-brainer. If I really thought about it we were pretty vanilla. Sure, we had tried anal, some bondage, and a few other things but we always came back to pretty tame stuff. I call it tame compared to some of the wild tales you hear people tell when they drink too much, or when you watch porn. Yet both of us seemed very happy with what we were doing, I thought.
Then came the night Maggie was riding me cowgirl and we exploded in a mutual orgasm. This didn't happen very often and although we tried to attain it often, it just didn't happen. Maggie had collapsed onto my chest, and we had lain there for a few minutes catching our breaths. Then she said something that caught me off guard,
"Chet I want you to go down on me, I think it would be super horny if I sat on your face, and you ate your cream pie."
Now this had certainly never come up before. As much as I was keen for another round with my wife just then I was certainly not interested in what she was suggesting. Part of me said "what the heck," I'm sure that was the part of me that was all wired up on endorphins. Another part of me said "wait a minute," I'm sure this was the part of me listening to the alarm bells. You see she had not said "make me cum again" or something like that. This would have been a physical act. No, she wanted me to specifically eat my own spunk, and that would be a mental as well as physical act. She had a picture in her head of something and me doing it was going to get her off. Normally new ideas were discussed like I said before. Seldom had either of us asked for something new at the spur of the moment. I tried for what I thought was a compromise until we could have that discussion.
"Sure, babe I would love it if you sat on my face right now but first I would like you to clean up the mess I made."
This definitely killed the moment, as she got off me and went to the bathroom she said just forget it.
The next day I brought it up at breakfast. Maggie explained that she thought it would be fun and that we already did things like that so what was the big deal? I countered with kissing someone after they performed oral sex on you was one thing but actually eating your own cum was different. Moreover, it was not something I wanted to do. She started getting angry after that and stated she would never suck me hard again after I came! This was kind of a silly thing to say because she often gave me blow jobs and swallowed but it was not the time to remind her of that. Instead, I offered to go wash off before she did that so we could go at it again quicker than waiting for me to rebound naturally. I could tell this was not going as she had planned and most worrisome was the anger. I could not remember another time in our sexual discussions when there had been anger on either side.
Things were quiet for a few weeks after that but then came another shocker. We had never discussed adding another person or persons to our lovemaking. I thought it was self-evident that it was off the table. We had been married in church and said those vows. Now as we were drinking coffee after supper Maggie was showing me porn on her laptop. Not just any porn but threesome porn. Specifically, two men and one-woman threesome porn. The first clip looked like just two random guys having sex with a girl. The second clip showed clearly a husband who was sharing his wife with another man. The third clip was clearly cuckold porn with the husband in the subservient role. Maggie then looked at me with lust in her eyes,
"What do you think Chet? Do you think this might be something you would like to try?
I was not interested right off the bat. Yet I felt obligated see how excited she was to give her a proper discussion.
"I think that I need to process this, you know give it some thought. Would you like to try that?"
