Player, Ohio, dw, shark, Prim0: I truly cannot imagine being married to someone who needed to exert that much control over my doings. I can't imagine being attracted to someone like that in the first place, or staying married or together once I'd discovered that she'd been concealing such an attitude. Jealousy and insecurity are easy to understand. What's harder for me to get is tolerating it to the point of getting married, and then referring to the "ball and chain" as if it were something unavoidable. I get that we all make compromises, and that it's often worth giving up some things to get other things we want more. What I don't get, is making those compromises and then not getting anything in return. I thank the gods that I never did that.
lopaw: None whatsoever, I guess. :)
Rick: I've known two, my mom and my sister-in-law, and suspected a few more that just never admitted it. Not that I can blame them in this neo-Puritan conformist society we've devolved into. He'll, I don't admit it outside my family and this board. As for the division, I have that, too. My wife doesn't want to meet any of the girls I've been with, and while she sometimes enjoys the stories I bring home, she mostly doesn't need to be told every time my dick gets sucked. And to be fair, for me this is all about the sex. I get all the affection and other accoutrements of a loving family from my loving family. I suppose it might be different if I was to find somebody as special as my wife, but I haven't even been tempted to this point.
