Anyway.
Husband and I had a talk last night about fantasies and whether or not you should share all of your fantasies with your spouse. He, firmly for. Me, firmly against.
His reasoning (spoken, at least)
- you love each other, you should know how to make each other as happy as possible
- honesty is important
- if you love each other enough, nothing will be appalling.
My reasoning (spoken and unspoken)
- No matter how much you love each other, some things are just a little too weird
- Honesty is overrated as long as it doesn't relate to disease or fidelity
- Sometimes I like to think about sex with other men, do you really want to hear about that?
- Quite often I think of one particular man you hate, O(ld)C(crush), and I figure you'd probably disown me if you knew
- Despite your claim to wanting to make your partner happy, a fair number of fantasies I have told you are still sitting ignored on your mental shelf. (At least I can safely say I've tried just about everything you've brought up and those I haven't, I've explained why)
So which of us is right? Personally, I feel it probably depends on the relationship. If a couple is composed of more stable components than myself, it might be well-possible, or even advisable, to share thoughts. Goodness, you'd like to fuck me from behind? How wild!
But, between myself and Husband, I think this would just be a bomb waiting to explode. Every time after that he'd be wondering why I thought of other men, why OC. And that can't really be good for anyone's mental health.
