"I have in a sense spoken about it. I've told her I'm up for most things sexually and I couldn't really grasp what she was thinking. I don't want to come out and say " I want more from the sexual side of our relationship- I want you to experiment more". I think that would crush her, she would see it as not being good enough for me. And then I do believe she would do whatever I wanted to do but that's not right. I want her to want it, to want to do it. " Approach it as a joint problem. I would like US to be more experimental sexually...this is a joint problem not hers alone. You're assuming you know what she's thinking and how she will react, you don't and you never will unless you talk to her. Honestly, stop discussing your partner with strangers and start talking to her it will be difficult and you might hear things you don't want to hear but there is no other way. | |||

"Thanks for the reply. I see where your coming from. Can you elaborate on " be careful what you wish for". I would like to hear the possible outcomes of me raising this with her. " I'm not sure about anyone else, but I feel that trying to change someone will make that someone not the someone you fell in love with. You also run the risk of her going so far the other way you will no longer be adventurous enough for her. | |||

"Thanks for the reply. I see where your coming from. Can you elaborate on " be careful what you wish for". I would like to hear the possible outcomes of me raising this with her. " You are a member of this site. Does she know that? Honesty and communication are the fundamentals of any long term relationship. If you can't discuss sex with your partner, do not continue the relationship. That may sound unduly harsh - it is only the opinion of a stranger. | |||

"Yeah that's 2 very good points. I wouldn't want her to go full circle and want to be the centre of a mmmmf orgy" You aren't in control of what your partner wants. | |||

"I'm not debating ending it. I used the title to catch the attention to the thread. That was probably a dick move. We do talk about it, but I suppose we've not had the whole if this isn't where we both agree then what do we do chat. I don't want to have that chat because I know she loves me and will do whatever "I" want to try. But my reason for posting was really to find out if she will gradually become more adventurous with age. " No one ever knows what the future holds. And, yes, that was a dick move. | |||

I don't want to have that chat because I know she loves me and will do whatever "I" want to try. But my reason for posting was really to find out if she will gradually become more adventurous with age. " As I said earlier on the thread nobody can tell you that. With the right man who is happy to support her in what she wants, explore her fantasies with her, enable her to feel she trusts him enough to open up about her real sexuality then I would say that there's a fair chance that she will become more adventurous. You seem to want us to predict her actions forward and on those predictions decide to stay with her or not. If you can't face a future with a sexually unadventurous woman you should walk away now. | |||

"my reason for posting was really to find out if she will gradually become more adventurous with age." We have no idea. Some do, some don't, some stay the same. | |||

"We started by discussing fantasys, for a long time they were just fantasys until we decided to see what it was like! We had been together 17 years though so I guess we are doing the experimenting that a lot of people do before settling down Xx " I've tried to discuss fantasys but she won't open up about it. Says she doesn't have any, is this possible ? | |||

"I guess you have to ask yourself if you will be happy with your sex life the way it is for years to come. If not and you think you will stray then end it before that happens. I had lots naughty thoughts but didn't act on them because sex isn't something I had been bought up to talk about and partner would have looked at me in disgust so I kept them in my head. Now I'm with someone I can tell anything, we have no secrets and it's amazing for the whole of our relationship" That sounds ideal. I want that to be with her and not someone else though | |||

"If u are already emotionally and mentally pulling apart and not communicating it will only end one way. How long it takes and how it ends who knows but if everything else is rosie in the garden start talking to her. And it's all very well u wanting more but in some ways u are lucky. U know what u want. Try nurturing her and getting her to explore her fantasies." I don't think we are pulling apart. Maybe physically we are going in different directions. That's all I want is to help her find what she wants | |||

"A few people giving OP a hard time here - he's just after advice and perhaps some reassuring accounts from others. Give him a break! We started really slowly. Cleo is a self-admitting prude. We started with sexy lingerie, then a vibrator, then more sex toys, then porn, anal sex and then swingers clubs, then more toys, sex resorts and then live toys. It wasn't all smooth but we've done it together and because we want to explore as a couple, not for any other reason. There were some points where I applied slow and steady pressure. I've put ideas in her head and reminded her of them and encouraged her to fantasise about them and ...eventually they became her fantasies too. Some she never took to but that's fine. She does the same with me. It can be a bit shocking when you first broach something different, but over time it becomes less weird and more sexy. I don't know how old you guys are or how long you've been trying to encourage her, but for us it's been about 3-4 years. Cleo now does stuff she never would have dreamed of 4 years ago And we are always testing each other's boundaries. If you're happy and love her then be patient and take it slowly. You might actually find that some of the things you think you want turn out to be damaging rather than fun. We were set back a couple years by trying something we weren't ready for. Take it slowly and hopefully you'll get to enjoy the journey together. " Thank you very much. You've described our relationship perfectly. I think purely with this comment you have opened my eyes a bit. The progession in your relationship, i can see that in my own. Thankyou | |||

"In our defence the majority of people giving him a hard time thought the choice was "swing or I'll leave you" Right legit advice time then! The way me and Millie broached the subject of fantasies was to write EVERYTHING we had ever considered doing or found sexy on a piece of paper each, rip the individual pieces of paper up and put them all in a hat, any that matched we put on a "Sexual bucket list" things to try before you die. The things that didn't match we put in a jar this is now our "to visit later" jar for if we're feeling exceptionally brave and want to try something way out there. Failing the hat idea there are TONS of websites that do basically the same thing and Mail the matching answers to each case other(some even keep the ideas that don't match a secret to save embarrassment) Cannot reiterate how important communication is but this worked for us to get the ball rolling Hope it helps! M&M X" What a great post and great advise to give | |||

Could really spark up an already adventurous sex life! | |||

"I've found one for anyone who is interested seems really good going to try it with partner. This could be the answer. mojoupgrade. Com " I have a funny feeling that's the one I was thinking of, it doesn't send the non matched ones though and goes into BDSM territory etc :P | |||

In a moment of uncharacteristic frustration I expressed myself passive aggressively...won't happen again | |||

" I had to read this post a good few times because it frightened the shit out of me .... slowly wearing someone down until they think your ideas are theirs ... isn't there some sort of crime implied there. My OH was on the fetscene before being with previous partners, and when it was clear they weren't interested, he did not pursue it whilst he was with them, but was never totally happy. We met through this site, and neither of us has ever pressured the other to do anything, had a secret sneaky plan or anything like it. I am not saying, OP, to leave her if she is not into it, I am saying, if you care about her, don't pressure her into something she doesn't want to do, that is totally manipulative and controlling. How awful for someone to lose themselves so completely like that ... or was I reading it completely wrongly, because it came across as chilling and cold to me. | |||

"I've tried to discuss fantasys but she won't open up about it. Says she doesn't have any, is this possible ?" It is possible. It is also possible she does and is ashamed to tell you because she feels they are so outrageous. Women are still often unable to accept that being really open about sex does not make them a bad person. I'd been very uptight & secretive about sex until I was put on Fab. I'm fine now | |||
