Shocked by DP arranging for a woman to join us in the bedroom

I’ve changed my name for obvious reasons.

I have officially lost it with DP. We have been together for a few years, and he has always made it clear his ‘fantasy’ is to involve another woman in the bedroom. I’ve always said it’s not my thing, which he says he respects and that’s why it is just a fantasy.

On Saturday we were out, fairly drunk and he brought this up again. I laughed and said ‘never say never’ - very much jokingly.

Fast forward to yesterday. We were having dinner and he said ‘remember on Saturday you said you’d be open to introducing someone else. Well I have a proposition’. I firstly said I didn’t recall saying that, and secondly asked what on earth did he mean.

Basically, he explained he had ‘found’ someone who’d be willing to join us. This is someone online with a few hundred reviews on a website and photos of her wearing next to nothing. He said it would be at his expense.

I was speechless initially then I hit the roof, I told him how dare he go behind my back and think something like this would be appropriate.

He meekly apologised, but said he took my answer at the weekend to be a positive one and got carried away.

Am I wrong to be completely astounded at his actions?

No not a swinging site. I understand that to be free. It was a site for paid ‘professionals’ for want of a better term.

So he’s sourced a prostitute, for you to have sex with? This is divorce material, it’s only going to get worse.

To your last point, he pointed out that her profile states she is independent and he said that she was a ‘personal recommendation from an old colleague’ 😷

The fact that she's on one of these websites shoes she's not 'independent'. Who do you think owns these websites? Who makes money off of them. There's always a digital pimp.

And that point aside, would her profile really say 'I'm trafficked and coerced' if she was?

”at his expense”. Good grief. Tell him to leave.

Like he's 'treating' you.

ItsNotMeEither · 01/05/2026 04:08

Wait, so you’re not married? There is no long term commitment here?

OMG! Get yourself out of this ‘situationship’ while you can!!!!

Fortunately I am not seeing him again until next week as he has his kids this weekend. So I have time to consider things.

What on earth is there to consider? This is a man for whom no means maybe, and maybe means definitely yes.

No self-respecting woman would willingly go within one hundred miles of him.

fabstraction · 01/05/2026 04:01

Yeah, it's LTB time. He's obviously very much into this whole thing and likely won't let it go, so even if you haven't already contracted a serious case of 'the ick', I wouldn't be surprised if he continues to mention this fantasy. Meanwhile, in the back of your mind, you'll be unable to forget that this is what he secretly (well, not-so-secretly) wants and is imagining. You'll also wonder what he's already done and with whom. He's so desperate for it that he's grasping at straws to try to make it happen. He sounds deeply unattractive in every way that matters.

toottoot3 · 01/05/2026 01:35

Is he as quick to sort out other things? Presents, nights out, washings?

Right!

If you mentioned you'd like a weekend in Paris one day would he leap onto the internet to book it all within 24 hours and consult old colleagues for ideas on where to have dinner?

TheseWordsAreMine · 01/05/2026 01:09

Does he ever mention A T M?

mommatoone · 01/05/2026 00:12

From how you have described it OP , it sounds like he could have 'recruited' this woman via sites like adult work. It's like 'check a trade' ,but for sex workers 🙈. So there will be reviews from previous punters and a clear outline of what she has to offer. These things can be arranged easily / quickly.but I bet my bottom dollar he has either used SW before or has sought someone out until you show a slight bit of 'interest' in his fantasy. He sounds vile in my opinion and has no respect for you in the slightest.

EBearhug · 01/05/2026 00:12

He's jumped quite a lot of guns there, starting with interpreting "never say never" as "Yes, sort it out immediately."

Even if you had said yes, prostitution is not something I would want to be involved with. I like consent to be freely given.

I have been up for threesomes in certain circumstances, and I think it says a lot about men (not positively) that they think finding a third person who is up for it is enough. They seem to be surprised that that isn't enough for me. But just like I don't fancy every man, and I don't fancy every woman either, so any arrangements needs to involve all parties. I also like to know about recent STI tests and things like that, which most men don't seem to think important. I'm also a busy person, and I'm not dropping a night out with friends that took ages to arrange because of finding a time we're all free just because a man got busy online and didn't think to ask me if I'm available. They need to communicate and most of all, they need to check consent for all people in the given circumstances.

But, most of all, he should really have checked what you meant before doing anything, because he's just wasted everyone's time.

I laughed as I said it. In the cold light of day I can understand it doesn’t sound definitive. But I’ve said No enough times for him to understand my stance!

If you've said no many times, it is because he kept asking, grim.

Leave him, he is looking at prostitutes, next step is a threesome without your invite.

soundof · 30/04/2026 23:50

ewwww

esp 'personal "recommendation from an old colleage"

bleurgh!

This would give me terminal ick.

StrictlyCoffee · 30/04/2026 23:35

Christ, what a prick. That’s so grim that not only did he keep badgering you when you’d made clear it wasn’t your thing, but as soon as you made light of it when he mentioned it yet again he dived straight in. What a cunt.

I’d be tempted to string him along and cancel the woman and instead see if you can hire a man and explain it’s your fantasy to see him fucked up the arse. See how he likes that. But in reality, best to dump his sorry arse.

Fucking porn has a lot to answer for

He's awful but saying this was the green light to him laughing makes no difference.

How gallant of him to pay for the prostitute. A true prince.

Fucking hell.

Sugarnspicenallthingsnaice · 30/04/2026 23:30

Ohhhh the fact this is a topic of conversation at work would be the final straw for me.

He's just her boyfriend, thank God.

🙏🙏🙏

ThisCraftyHedgehog · 30/04/2026 23:27

Not for the threesome either, thats fine if all parties for it, for the involvement of a prostitute. Seems he wants to cuck you.

Guys gotta go ☢️

ThisCraftyHedgehog · 30/04/2026 23:24

Can’t believe the men that have managed to get all the way to marriage on here sometimes

ltb..fast
guys a creep

He's just her boyfriend, thank God.

Sevenwondersofthewoo · 30/04/2026 23:26

So she comes recommended huh yeah he uses sex workers.

when procuring a sex worker for a threesome she’ll want contact with the other person so she knows they actually consent.

but besides that he didn’t make sure the next day if your never say never was an actual yes.

You’ve told him no numerous times Christ if you’re not into it he’d should been dumped the second time he mentioned it.

I’ve got the ick for you.

LTB.

Im so coming back as a lesbian. Or a labrador.

Yep, one of those two for me as well.

I'm so fucking mad about how often us women have to bear the weight of their perversions and their insane sex drives. Why can't the government issue them all with their own Fleshlights so they can just leave us all alone. 😡

ForCosyLion · 30/04/2026 23:19

Aprilsun2 · 30/04/2026 20:42

Yes he has said in the past he would ‘share’ me. I told him never to use that term again!

Oh Christ.

OP, you are not sexually compatible. This is a relationship ender and a deal-breaker. Find someone to be with who's as grossed out as you are by the idea of each of you sleeping with other people, in front of their very eyes. 🤢

When I wrote my first message to you, above, I skimmed some of the details and I thought you were married and in deep. Now I see that he's just a boyfriend and you don't even live together. THANK GOD!

You want totally different things in the sack, and his relentless badgering is showing you very clearly that what he wants is much more important to him than what you want. You are too different. For your own health and happiness, please break up with him. He's the one making it into a massive issue, anyway. Not your fault.

Sexual incompatibility is not surmountable, imo. This one is pretty bad, but even smaller ones can wear on you over the years. It's supposed to be fun, not a mediation table.

FeelingALittleWoozyHere · 30/04/2026 23:18

I would absolutely be ending this OP
