Have name changed for this, obviously. Married for many years but although we intellectually connect and have fun the sexual side of it has never been quite right. DH seems inhibited and isn't really up for anything out of the ordinary. Anyway, I'm on this committee to do with work and through it I met X who is a few years younger than me, overweight, totooed and into bling (really not my type)on his third marriage and very good company. Not obviously attractive but there is something about him. he is a nurse who holds an administrative position and has that nice empathic manner that male nurses sometimes do. Anyway one thing led to another and before I knew where I was I was being bombarded with texts, invited for drinks and we began to see each other.We do get on very well, not just sexually. It has really messed my head about. As we both have families ( though mine are teens, his daughter is 11) we agreed we would not run away togerther, but both said we would like to.He is an acomplished lover and I do want him physically but each time we get close to having sex he pulls back and says that is not as high on his agenda as it is on mine ( though he invites me round to his house when his wife is out), sends me porny pictures and tries to have sex in wierd positions, but never actually does very much. I've been really silly over this and I'm now unreasonably and stupidly totally in love with him and I think I'm scaring him off by being a bit OTT. I'm just so upset and want to be with him and I feel miserable because he doesn't think it is reasonable I think sex is so important and now he is off to Devon on holiday for a week and I just can't cope and he thinks it is unreasonable of me tobe upset.I've tried really hard with DH over the years but no oral sex, not much sexual activity and no talking in bed leaves me very frustrated. No one will have any sympathy with me but I just can't cope with this on my own. Lover thinks I should be happy just to meet for a grope every now and then in a car park - or to pay for hotel for our meets.(he seems to have no money despite earning more than me)What a mess, am I being unreasonable to want more from X - or is he right that I should just chill out and enjoy what is on offer? If I give him up I'm going to feel distraught, upset and lost, but I feel like sh*t anyway. Don't want to leave DH, love him but can't cope with barren sex life forever - I'm getting on a bit and this might be my last chance.Abit of sensible advice and insight please.

I can understand the feeling that you want to reach out to someone else for love/attention and have latched on to this guy and want him to satisfy your needs.

Do you think if you have a real in-depth affair you'll be able to maintain your relationship with your DH and family?

Overmydeadbody · 19/08/2009 20:49

yeah, he doesn't sound like an accomplished lover by my standards.

accomplished at what?

has he got a buzzer for a tongue?

AnyFucker · 19/08/2009 20:56

look for a hidden camera in his bedroom

he sounds bloody awful, and you sound like one mixed-up lady

get shut of your dh if that relationship is dead, but please choose another man much more carefully (and perhaps wait a while before you do that, you need to get your head together)

veryconfused if this is real and not a wind-up come back and talk. Don't disappear.

dailymailIsPerfectAsaPoopScoop · 19/08/2009 21:03

the more i have thought about this, the more convinced he is making some kind of film of what goes on. He invites you into his house, god knows what he has set up in there camera wise. The positions, the fact that he sends porn on his mobile.

What porn does he send you? Does it look like homemade?
Get rid and now.

dailymailIsPerfectAsaPoopScoop · 19/08/2009 21:04

and please come back to the thread.

is it?? Gawd i am slow tonight. that is 2 threads i have been taken in by!

FabBakerGirlIsBack · 19/08/2009 21:10

Has to be. I questioned it earlier. Same with the one about the non workers.

AF - whenever I see your name I smile. You were very kind to me recently and it means a lot.

AnyFucker · 19/08/2009 21:11

aww shucks, FBGIB

The non-workers one was a joke... this one doesn't sound like a joke- certainly isn't funny.

It sounds like he's playing with her, and filming it.

AnyFucker · 19/08/2009 21:14

shh, shiney, don't tell anyone....

dailymailIsPerfectAsaPoopScoop · 19/08/2009 21:15

usually I can sniff out a porky thread quite quickly but tonight my nose must be totally blocked!

NorbertDentressangle · 19/08/2009 21:16

The OP does seem a bit odd -too much precise detail that we don't really need but that could also be used to identify those involved in RL (eg. age of his daughter, where hes gone on holiday, the fact hes "a nurse that holds an administrative position")

BitOfFun · 19/08/2009 21:17

OP, you just sound too naive for me to take you seriously, I'm afraid. That should give you some idea of the wisdom of this thing you've got going on, if you are for real.

dailymailIsPerfectAsaPoopScoop · 19/08/2009 21:18

she needs to return to the thread to explain more i think.

AnyFucker · 19/08/2009 21:21

yeah, we need more detail in order to help have a bloody good laugh

tiredoftherain · 19/08/2009 21:23

If it is trolling, I've waded right in to the trap! I do think it's odd to write such a lengthy OP and then just disappear. At least play along if you're going to bother making this stuff up!!

If it is real, I expect the OP is feeling utterly sick at the suggestion that she might have been filmed and what might be done with that kind of evidence - I would be.

veryconfusedandupset · 19/08/2009 21:43

This is not a wind up - it is real, when I'm with him I just want him so much but it is all so wierd that I dn't understand what he wants really - he has not been unfaithful to his wife before and they have been married 12 years, she works nights, he works days and theyonly see each other at weekends - I did a little post on style and beauty in new name just to check change had worked. My family want computer tonight so I cannot keep posting continually. He comes across as anice person stuck in an unhappy relationship as I am, I just wanted to get a bit of happiness with him. no I'm sure he is not filming me - he sent me some anal pics because he hasn't done that before and would like to try with me.
