Hey, Hey Waffle gang. I do hope you are well. My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more relationship stories. And if you do love a Reddit story, why not consider in the like, subscribe, maybe that notification bell too. Let's crack on with today's first story. Much love, guys. Now, today's first story comes from a throw away account who says,

My 36 male, wife, 37 female, suggested opening up our marriage after 10 plus years, and I don't know what to do.

My wife, 37 female, and I 36 male are married for 10 plus years. We have two kids who are

of school age now and so far everything was perfect in our relationship. We're together since

college, we have good communication, I think and we could always talk openly about our

struggles, desires, etc. And solve them together. Recently my wife told me that a guy was hitting on her in the

gym, which surprised and scared me. I asked her how this made her feel and she admitted that it turned her on.

We have that openness to talk about other people we like. I can say I find a particular actress or

person attractive, for example, and she will just

smile and she does the same. We like to know what the other person likes. We think it brings us

closer together. But this time, I started feeling that this was coming from a different place.

A month went by and this topic was never mentioned again. But then, a few days ago, she wanted to talk.

She asked how I would feel if we would try non-monogamy. I was shocked. I didn't know what to say.

I asked her if it was because of that guy in the gym and she said no. She hadn't seen him since,

but that is something that was growing inside of her for quite some time, and maybe this encounter

now ignited it.

I asked how she imagines it, and she didn't have any specific scenario, which I felt was a good

sign.

I was afraid she already had a person in mind.

She said we would talk more and find it out together how we would want to do it.

She said she is missing so excitement and she thinks we

could do it together in a way that's good for our marriage. I didn't know what could I say.
