Interestingly enough our story starts like so many others. Married for for 12 years, busy with kids and work and as a result neglecting each other. Sex certainly was not non-existent but at the same time predictable....and safe.
Even a relationship with a woman as beautiful as Teresa can grow routine and with routine passion can die.
During the years we have been together Teresa and I have had what I could only describe as a fairly conservative sexual relationship.
At times the unexpected would occur and memories of these encounters would fuel my lust for her.
Seldom would we discuss these exceptional encounters that mostly occurred when alcohol had been involved. When sober and returning to our normal lives it was always the unspoken rule that these things need not be discussed.
I believe our 12 year anniversary was key to what transpired over the next year. The anniversary was spent as typically as one could imagine. Good clothes, nice restaurant, wine with dinner and 30 minutes of love making upon returning home.
The following day my thoughts were consumed with what our relationship was, what it had evolved from and what it would be like in 5, 10 even 20 years. By the time my head hit the pillow that evening I had resolved to find more excitement and adventure in our relationship.
Resolving to change was the simple step. Determining what would be a positive to our relationship took careful study and consideration.
As I said before, my wife Teresa is a beautiful woman. At 40 with three kids she could still pass for 25. Her flowing brown hair frames a smooth face highlighted by exceptional hazel eyes. Teresa works hard eating right and exercising to maintain a very attractive figure that is highlighted by her naturally perfect C cup chest. Her looks are complimented by a wonderful personality. Teresa exudes friendliness to everyone around her. It is simple to see how attracted everyone is to not only her looks but her personality.
Although so many envy Teresa's physical assets, she has never seen herself through the eyes of others.
After many years of marriage she remains hesitant to display her body and is often skeptical of my compliments of her beauty, particularly of her body. Her inclination to hide herself is something I have become accustomed to typically don't push her on the issue.
Occasionally she will allow me her nudity but after often reminds me of how uncomfortable she becomes. After a few glasses of wine and faded inhibitions, Teresa will be much more open and willing to share herself with me. These moments are what fill my mind when the lights are off and our bodies hidden in darkness.
I began to view my intentions as a plan to evolve our sexuality. I wanted to free my wife from the inhibitions that keep her from giving herself completely. To that end, I knew I had to create a comfort level with her nakedness.
My efforts began by suggesting she let me take some digital pictures of her. This wasn't the first time I had broached the subject but this time was different. I wasn't making a random suggestion. I was convincing her.
As before she initially tried to laugh off my request, wondering out loud why I would want pictures of that. After my 4th "suggestion" in two weeks she actually acknowledged she would consider it if she lost a few of those pounds she didn't want to show off.
