First off, thank you, everyone, for your replies on my other threads. The help and advice was greatly appreciated.
Now I wanted to talk about the good stuff that has happened since we have begun this journey. Our marriage was basically in a rut, with the spark lost. My wife had been wanting to go poly for almost a year, but didn’t know how to talk to me about it (anxiety issues). We have actually grown closer and more intimate, and I am not just talking about sex. We have more conversations that are deep and meaningful. Also, she accepts my flirtations. I LOVE flirting with my wife.
As far as some of my issues, we have both read and discussed Are You in Poly Hell? and What if I Get Jealous? The book Opening Up has been downloaded and we are working on a schedule for our lives to become more balanced.
We are also building a list of topics that we need to discuss, such as boundaries, what we are each looking for, etc. Just doing this communicating has already helped ease a lot of my mental and emotional issues. Yes, I am seeing a therapist soon and we are looking for a couple's therapist, as well
Again, I want to thank everyone for their replies, opinions, and advice.
