cuckaliciousr:
I'm curious - for those of you who planned it to be "out", did you find this lessened the excitement of it all? Or increased it?
I would think keeping it illicit would be far more exciting, but I suppose if you're more into offense, it might be more exciting to out yourselves.
You're dead on
cuckaliciousr. I found it increased it hugely because I am into offense. My wife found it took a lot of the thrill out of "sneaking around." In some ways it led to some decrease in her affairs. But she also found it was a relief to be able to talk to friends about it and all her feelings and to have people introduce her to boyfriends, since she has never been an assertive seductress.
Even for me there were some mixed outcomes. As I say, I loved the offense and I still get off on the memories of some of the "coming outs." But on the other hand, the "out" lifestyle has led to a normalization of my status that has left me a bit isolated and deprived of the thrill of potential exposure. I guess you can't have both the anticipation and the memory.
