I have searched the forums and have found nothing remotely close to what I need help with so I will start a new thread. I am at a loss right now. I am fully aware of the stand The CoS takes on sexual freedom ect. However my position is this. I have been involved with the same person for 4 years.
I love her, desire her and need her. The problem is time I guess. She has found herself submersed into her new promotion at work and I am still here. Now my issue is that of desire. I am finding myself wanting to go outside the relationship. Not because I dont love her but because I WANT a sexual encounter. I NEED a Sexual encounter but I dont want her hurt and I know she will be. I have tried to talk to her about this and explain to her that I need this interaction and if i dont get it from her I will go outside the relationship. I think she thinks it is a joke of some kind. How do i explain this without ripping her heart out? She does not deserve to be hurt. She is wonderful to me in every aspect of our relationship except the physical. I just thought maybe some outside advice could aid me in talking to her and explaining. Thanks.
