Part 3
Chapter 5 -- Can we try this?
Two days after Mike had left home, he called Jane to say that he was looking for an apartment and that he would call to arrange to remove his things from the condo. Jane had been falling apart mentally after Mike moved out, she was desperate, but he hadn't spoken to her since moving out, he hadn't felt the need no wish to, he was trying to get used to being on his own.
"Mike, please don't get somewhere else yet, it seems so irrecoverable if you take that step, I'm desperate to do whatever it takes to get you back in my life. If you sign up to a lease, even for only 6 months, it drives a big wedge between us and I'm going to have to move out of the condo, I can't afford it on my own."
She heard Mike sigh deeply before he said, "Jane this is what your cheating has brought us to, we need to get used to living apart, there is no way to reconcile our differences. Yes, you could say you won't do it anymore and I'd love to believe you but we both know, right now you would hope with everything you've got that you could live up to it. But Jane, look at it from my point of view, you've cheated for 5 months, other guys have fucked you how many times? What was Jack good for 2-3 times per session? So maybe 20 times you've let other men fuck you."
He heard Jane sobbing over the phone, "Then Jane, you've admitted that there is a very slim chance you could go without getting horny for a big fat cock and that you can see yourself needing it 10 or 20 years and more into the future. If you get horny, how am I to believe you won't just do what you've already shown yourself capable of, cheating behind my back."
Now Jane was openly wailing her misery in the background.
"Jane, I know you love me, I don't have any doubt about it, I love you more than anything in the world but it's just not enough honey. I want a woman who will give me children and be true to our family, you've admitted that is not who you are. I love you so much but your future plans and mine are not compatible."
"I'll call you before I come over to collect the rest of my things, that will give you a chance to be out if you don't want to see me and I'll leave my key when I'm finished. I'm sorry, I guess this is goodbye. I'm looking at some apartments on Saturday morning so then when I get an address, I'll start arranging the divorce, I hope we can do that and stay friends, think about anything you really want to keep and let me know, ok?"
Jane choked out, "That's easy Mike, what I want to keep is you, nothing else matters, please don't make any more big decisions until you come over to collect your things, please come alone and please give me some more time to talk to you."
"I can do that Jane, I'll come over tomorrow night it that's ok."
"I'll see you then Mike, and Mike, until then please keep both your heart and your mind open to me."
The next day Mike texted Jane at work and said would 7pm be good, Jane simply replied yes.
When Mike arrived he just had his car, he was just collecting clothing and other small stuff, he didn't want any furniture, he was looking at furnished apartments. He rang the bell and the door opened instantly, Jane wanted to hug him and he couldn't see what harm that could do, for him mentally it was all over barring the formalities of separation and divorce.
Jane clung to him, he could feel her trembling, he knew she would make one last effort to convince him but his course was set. What could she say?
"Mike please let's talk before you pack anything, I've had an idea, please listen with an open mind and that big heart of yours open for something a little different."
He nodded the affirmative and said, "I'm all ears, if you have anything new to suggest I'm listening and I hope I can buy into it, but I just don't see what can change my mind."
"OK Mike, you know I've ended things with Jack, I promise you that will not change, I've got no other stud lined up, I'm going to try not to go there ever again. Cold turkey from huge dicks from now on and yes I remember exactly what you said about good intentions but being unable to resist, so I've got a plan."
"Jack you are a fun guy, but you have always been a bit straight-laced. Do you want our marriage enough to maybe relax a bit and try things a little differently? I know you have trust issues but I have that covered too, so would you take a chance on making a few changes in our life to see it we can find a way through this?"
Mike looked curiously at the love of his life, nervous but definitely interested to hear more. He simply said, "Go on."
"Mike, it was when you said that when we separate that I might see you with other women that I got an idea. I wrongly had you marked as a one-woman man but if you are open to being with other women, I can live with that just as I would expect that you would then be able to live with me having other men. Jack, will you please come with me to a swingers club on Friday night, just to see if it's something we can do together and if it might give us something that stops the threat of me running around behind your back?"
"What I'm thinking is if we do it together as a shared experience, who knows where that would lead but I promised you with all the honesty I can muster, if we do it I swear I will only do things when we are together, no little side adventures and Mike, if this works for us, I won't care what size the cock or cocks are. It might cure my addiction to huge dicks."
"If you will try this, for now let's not think further that Friday, then we can talk again and if you're onboard with the plan, I suggest we try it for 6 months and then see where we are. My hope would be that we would have enough confidence together to make the decision to relax and look again at when to stop playing and start a family."
Mike looked unconvinced but said, "OK babe, let's do it on Friday, I'd already accepted I was going to start looking for other women so I suppose nothing much to lose for one night. I still see all sorts of problems but I'm going to try it with you but Jane, you have a lot of convincing still to do beautiful."
