My 50th birthday had finally arrived. My wife had asked some of my friends around for drinks and the night was going well. I was enjoying myself, feeling pretty relaxed and having some good fun with a lot of friends. Because it was my birthday, some of the more extraverted types made plenty of jokes about my sex drive and my ability to perform now that I was ‘past my prime.’ It was good-natured banter. Joining in the fun, I told them that given my old man status, I might need to get some help since my wife’s sex drive was increasing while mine was decreasing.
It was after I had had a few more beers and talked more with a couple of very old friends when the topic of my ability to perform came up again. I then confided in them telling them that one of my favorite fantasies was to come home and find my wife naked and in bed with another man. “Oh, sure!” was the unanimous and disbelieving response from my two friends. I smiled, raised my glass of quality red wine as if to inspect it, then added,
“Well, all I can say is that I think about it a lot and the thought of sharing my wife turns me on.” Sensing a change in the mood, Joe responded,
“I bet you wouldn’t feel like that if it really happened.” I laughed and thought about it for a few seconds, then said, “I know that you think I’m out of my mind, but I can tell you Joe, that I have had this desire for most of our married life. And Sue and I have been married for a long time.”
“Yes, but reality is very different from fantasy.”
“I know, but how will I ever know. All I know is that I would love to find out for sure. In fact, I think I need to find out for sure because I think about it all the time.”
Joe still wasn’t sure if I was serious and he asked, “Are you telling me that if you found out that Sue was having an affair, you would be happy about it?” I paused for a few seconds while I considered his question, then replied,
“Yes, I would. Like I told you, the thought of her in bed enjoying physical intimacy with another man gets me really hot, really hot. Unfortunately, I think I’m dreaming in vain because I don’t think Sue will ever go for it.” Joe looked at me carefully and said,
“I wouldn’t be too sure of that, Steve. You never know. Your wife might be having a torrid affair right now, and you know that people change as they get older. Sometimes desires that have been dormant for years begin to break through to the surface. And on some occasions people act on them.” Laughing, I went on,
“Dream on, Joe. And I repeat, if she were having an affair it would be the most exciting news I have had in a while.” Again I paused while I considered what I was about to say. “Joe, not only would I actively encourage her; I would even suggest that she bring him home and into our bed, so she could take pleasure from him all night if she wanted.”
“So, if I told you that I knew your wife was having an affair, you wouldn’t be upset? What if I told you I was sleeping with her? Wouldn’t that upset you?”
“No, I wouldn’t be upset.” Then smiling I added, “In fact, it would be terrific, because you’re here so often it would be fun. Plus, I know you’re safe. Part of the excitement for me would be in never knowing what to expect when I got home.” Hitting him playfully on the arm I added, “It sounds like you know something that I don’t.”
Joe gave me a knowing smile, tapped me on the shoulder, and added, “I just might,” as he walked off. Something about the way Joe said this grabbed my attention and caused a surge of pure sexual energy to pass through me.
The party was in full swing. For the next few hours I had a great time, but the conversation I had had with Joe was never far from my mind. A short time later, Joe moved next to me and quietly asked, “Have you ever told Sue what you would like?”
“Only once, years ago, but she wasn’t interested. I don’t even know if she knew I was serious. I have been afraid to ask her again because I don’t want to lose her.”
“Well, if you really want Sue in bed with another guy, I suggest you talk to her tonight because I think she might surprise you.” Laughing but disbelieving, I leaned close to him and told him firmly,
“Joe I want it to happen, so if you can get her to go to bed with you or anyone else, go for it. If there’s anything I can do to help, just let me know.”
“Okay, buddy, I will. But you’d better be sure it’s what you want, because I think your lovely wife might definitely surprise you,” he said then drifted off into the crowd once again without giving me the chance to probe further.
I went searching for Sue. I found her talking with a small group and I joined her. The talk turned once again to sex after 50. I took the opportunity to make my usual joke about needing help, grabbing Sue on the backside as I said it. Sue laughed delightedly and played up to the small crowd, pushing back onto my hand and increasing the pressure. She then said, “Well, lover, be careful, because I might just arrange for some hunky men to help you out. And you never know, I might have already done that” and with a smile, she kissed me fleetingly and drifted off to mingle with our other guests leaving me with the scent of her perfume.
I was left reviewing the past few months, wondering and contemplating the possibilities. I could definitely feel some sexual tension in the air and the prospect was exciting. It’s funny how blind we are to some things. As I drifted among my friends, I couldn’t help but think back over the past few months. I realized that Sue’s behavior had indeed changed in a number of areas. There was no doubt her sexual appetite had grown and that she had started becoming more adventurous in bed. I remembered the pleasant surprise one morning when I awoke to the sensational feel of her warm lips on me as she performed oral sex to completion, an event that had happened very few times in our married life. I continued to think back over the past months, realizing that some of her usual Saturday shopping trips had been a lot longer than normal on several occasions. She sometimes got home much later than usual after work also. These memories caused my imagination to go into overdrive. Was she having an affair? And if so, was it just one man?
Then I remembered. On one of my frequent interstate business trips, I had called her at home. It was quite late and she hadn’t answered, so I rang her cell phone and innocently asked what she had been doing that evening. Suddenly, the words she spoke to me on that occasion took on a whole new meaning. She had laughed and teased me by saying that she was in bed with one of her lovers. A smile formed on my face as I considered the obvious question. Was it possible that she had been in bed with another man? Joe perhaps? And then there was the statement “one of her lovers.” I began to think that she was indeed seeing other men for sex. Once again, I found myself hoping that she was.
Then other little things took on new significance: the phone calls cut short when I entered the room, the trips to the shower as soon as she arrived home. As I reviewed all of this and the evidence of her adultery mounted, I felt another surge of excitement course through my body. I knew that she had plenty of opportunity to sleep other men if she wanted, and I was about to provide her with even more opportunity.
When I caught up with her again, I playfully put my arm around her and, ignoring the fact that other people were present, I squeezed her breast and teased her, whispering, “So, you have a lover, do you?” She placed her hand over mine and applied more pressure, pushing down, crushing it to her breast as she smiled at me impishly.
“Maybe. Joe tells me that you would be pleased if I did. Is that right?” Still not sure if she was serious, I still made a joke of it.
“Yes, it would please me. In fact, it could be a really great extra present for me.” She raised her eyebrows and asked,
“What would be an extra present?”
“The fact that you might be open to getting into bed with another man.” Then it was my turn to play. Raising my voice a little I said to the small group, “My wife is one horny lady, don’t you think?” Then, with another squeeze, I started to walk away but she followed me, took my hand, pulled me to her, and kissed me fiercely. Then she whispered into my ear, “You know, I believe you just might be serious.”
I nuzzled my face into her neck, nibbled her ear, and said, “For what it’s worth, I’m very serious.” I took her face in my hands, kissed her lovingly, and added, “and if you haven’t already got a lover, then please get one. But, I have one condition. He or they can enjoy complete physical intimacy with you and it's OK with me if they use your body in any way you want them to, but I want both your body and your heart okay?” My wife moaned softly and whispered,
“You’ve got it, and Steve, Joe told me all about your fantasy. Do you want it to be real tonight?”
