[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband and I were taking an evening walk last night and he very randomly and casually said something along the lines of how he doesn't think humans were designed to be monogamous because he sees a hot chick thinks about hooking up but wouldn't because he loves me and wouldn't want anything to happen to me. But the desire for something "different" or "strange" is still there. He then said he thinks it's God testing our faith/vows. I dunno about the last part but the first makes me nervous! Maybe he just felt comfortable being open with me...we have been married 4 years and he is 15 years my senior for background. [/quote]

Honestly, it sounds like he's testing the waters with comments like that.  Think about if you were to throw out a comment like that randomly -- what would prompt *you* to say something like that?[/quote]

I don't know. We are very open and honest with eachother about everything. Even though [b]I believe what he said is probably a very normal feeling for a married man I don't want to hear that! [/b]I told him that I understand his feelings and remember the days of being sexually wanted and desired by my ex bfs and flings. Which is true. He didn't say anything but then made playful comments the rest of the night about all the nice things he's done for me vs my ex's. Admittedly, we've been in a lull due to some fertility problems and procedures. But I don't think that's mattered as he has been very matter of fact about men wanting "strange" since we've met. He's just never outright said he's been checking out women and thinking about it. Trying not to think too much into it but it still bothers me. [/quote]

You don't want to hear it because you don't want it to be true, or you don't want to hear it because you think your husband is magical and only gets it up for you? The naivete and moral preening I read here can be mentally debilitating. If you and your husband are so open and honest, why are you so shocked? Oh, and I just love the ever-so-popular refrain of "real men do x". Puh-lease. Let me guess plenty of Promise Keepers who are "minding the gap". Wake up and smell the hypothalamus, people.[/quote]
