Success story

Opening a Relationship

I wanted to share a success story we myself and my husband, both 50. We have been together for almost 10 years and have been exploring the open relationship concept. We have a very strong relationship and just wanted this to add some spice and fun. Absolutely by chance a week ago and old BF of mine from literally over 20yrs sent me a FB message and we started chatting. We had really been good friends but didn't do well in a relationship but had great sex. We realized we still had chemistry and even went out to dinner this week to catch up. My husband immediately said that would be a great FWB candidate because I already know I have a connection with him. I told him the truth that I was in an open relationship and my husband was on board with no jealousy or drama. He had a hard time wrapping his head around it but he was game so we met last night and it was really good. The sex wasnt that great because I think we both were very nervous but our chemistry was there and the best part was, I had zero feelings for him romantically it was just like being with a old friend. I went home to my husband and had amazing sex and it was a really great recommendation moment. I was thrilled with the way it all played out. How much closer my husband and I felt and just the whole experience was a good one. I don't know if we will ever do it again but it was a crazy week of flirting and closure and sex. Can't ask for more
