I’m looking forward to this journey around my own desires and needs and learning to develop intimate relationships with other gay men while also strengthening the bond that I have with my husband.

Here’s to always learning and exploring and to recognizing that intimacy comes in many forms.

I have to add that my therapist has been amazing in helping me navigate this new phase of life. He’s been encouraging me to try meditation.

I recently discovered @coachkevmartin.bsky.social on here and am exploring the idea of combining pleasure, and intimacy with mindfulness meditation.

I’ve also started sharing more of myself, my body, and my sexuality here. And I’ve loved it. I guess this is the launch of sharing my emotional and intimacy thoughts and experiences as well.

Even if this just a place for me to journal, it feels good to put my thoughts out into the world.

I’m excited about the journey that I’m on and figuring out what this means for me, my other relationships.

At first, my husband was not keen on the idea. We’ve been able to start to engage in meaningful and respectful conversations with the goal of ensuring both of our needs/desires are met.

I want to develop more intimate friendships with gay men - but what does that mean? Sexual? Platonic physical relationships?

I’ve always been turned off by models of polyamory that I’ve seen through friends. But question if I am now.

I just learned “garden party” polyamory and that kinda fits

I’ve come to realize that I want something more than random hookups and cruising - but I’ll always love those

I understand now that I need to find a way to form more intimate relationships outside of marriage. I’m not exactly sure what that is. I’m
not a fan of the terms boyfriend, fuck buddy, FWB

It’s not until recently that I’ve realized that I might want something different. Something more. I don’t what that looks like right now but I’m excited about the journey and finding ways that help me connect more emotionally with other gay men.

Sharing more of myself, my body and now my feelings

I’ve also been able to engage in respectful and honest conversations with my husband about it. We have challenges to face but we want to find a way to ensure that both of our needs are met.

We’ve always had an open/non monogamous relationship that relies on honesty and transparency

I need intimacy with someone else other than my husband. I don’t know exactly what that is. Sexual? Platonic physical connection? I’m not fond of the terms boyfriend, fuck buddy, FWB
