“Sex Confessions” is a series featuring your naughtiest bedroom secrets and fantasies. Some will sound familiar, others may give you ideas, and all will turn you on (well most). You might want to sit down for this.
Today's sex confession comes from a 25-year-old mom of one, who has been married for three years. She has been trying to keep her husband's friend off her mind, but she can't. And now he's been showing up in her fantasies — her sexual fantasies. Here's what she has to say ….
Jake* has been my husband's friend since they were in high school. And on the night I met my husband Ryan*, I also met Jake__. I was actually interested in Jake, but Ryan was interested in me.__ We exchanged numbers and eventually started dating. I couldn't help but still be excited when Jake would come around. I was falling in love with Ryan, but there was something about Jake that drew me to him. In my head, I felt like we had a secret chemistry — I feel like he knows how I feel about him and maybe there is a part of him that wants to be with me. He's not married.
There is a small part of me that worries I got married too young. But I have my son, who is my world. I love my husband, but I think about Jake more than I should. I fantasize about him during the day; I wonder what he is doing, if he thinks about me. I have even pretended Ryan was him when we were having sex. I feel tremendously guilty about this.
When I am around Jake, when he's over our house, if there ever is a moment when he touches me — like when he kisses my cheek hello or if he touches my back asking if he could help with the dishes — I feel that chemistry. Maybe it's just one-sided because Jake has never acted upon it or hinted anything, but it's starting to get to me. I wonder if I should explore my feelings for Jake or maybe that is completely foolish. I know I need to re-examine my feelings for Ryan. Something needs to change; I can't go on with these feelings getting stronger.
What do you think this confessor should do? Do you ever have fantasies about your husband's friends? Is it more innocent or as complicated as this confessor's?
