Let me start by saying what a great resource this is - I have read through all 51 pages and there's such a wealth of experience and inspiration here, it is really fantastic! Some of my questions have already been answered, but not all, so here goes.
My wife and I are in our early 50s, been together for 20 years and married for 10. Very happily married with three teenagers that keep us busy, and we really enjoy each others company as much as we did when we first met, though the sexual spark obviously has waned a bit over the years. Now I have always had fantasies about watching my partners (ex-gfs and my wife) having sex with someone else, but this was always something of a kinky fantasy as I was massively jealous in those days and would have been crushed by them actually having sex with another man. However, as our relationship has grown stronger over the years and since we've been married, those feelings of jealousy have gone, and I have increasingly felt I want to make those fantasies a reality. I have thought a lot about why I want to experience this, and come to realize it's a lot of things - the excitement for myself watching my wife being pleasured, the desire to give my wife the opportunity to relive the heady sensations of sex with a new and sexy guy, sharing the journey with her as she gets to flirt and have sex with other men and get to experience the feeling of being an attractive woman once more, above all it's my desire to give her pleasure and sexual freedom. An added factor is that I have developed a condition called Peyronie's which makes my penis curve quite sharply upwards and also causes ED, so it is not so easy for us to have normal penetrative intercourse any longer, and I don't want to deprive her of great sex just because I can no longer perform well in that area... Before I met my wife, I took part in a couple of MFM threesomes, and those were some of the most exciting experiences I've had (and the couples I played with felt the same), so I know just how magical it can be, but I have never told her about those times and feel it's a bit late to bring it up 20 years on...
My wife is not conservative, she had lots of boyfriends and partners before me but is quite conventional sexually, however when we first met she shared with me that she used to have a fantasy about being in a threesome with two men (but also that she'd have difficulty doing that with me as she would find it hard to let herself go and enjoy it with me present). So while I know there's a small part of her that is (or was) potentially interested, it's going to take a lot of time and encouragement to turn this fantasy into reality. Although we have a great relationship in other ways, we don't easily talk about sex, but this has changed in recent years as I started bringing toys into the bedroom. If I had asked her about that she would point blank have refused, but by surprising her with a vibrator and then a dildo she became quite interested and really enjoys when I buy her a new toy to play with. So much so that she wants to use a dildo every time we have sex - to my surprise she quite enjoys a massive black dildo that I got by mistake (knowing it was way too big) but she loves to hold her hand around it and rub it against her clit (though she doesn't like to use them for penetration). The toys have helped rekindle our sex life (or rather, her diminishing libido) and while we don't have sex quite so often as we used to it's always good. The dildo play has also made me bolder in talking to her about my fantasies, whereas before I sometimes hinted about having had dreams or fantasies about her having sex with another guy (which she dismissed, jokingly, as me being perverted) now I often ask her to imagine the dildo is that of another guy and have told her in the heat of passion that I want to see her have sex with another guy (to which she has mostly smiled but not reacted further). So I think I'm on the right track in planting the seed in her mind, but taking the next step is difficult. Part of the problem is that she has entered menopause, so while the physical issues can be dealt with (lube and lots of it), she just isn't that interested in sex anymore except when we're actually having it. So bringing the idea up outside of the bedroom is tricky - it's not like you suddenly blurt out while driving to the store, "honey I want you to have sex with other men".
Now, I know that she might never actually want to go any further and that might even be the most likely scenario, but I feel she's giving enough encouragement that I want to give it a try. I guess my question is whether I should keep pursuing this as bedroom talk or bring it up in the cold hard light of day? My worry is that if she really isn't into it she might lose some respect for me if I suggest this? How do I make her understand I want to do this because I love her so very much and not the other way round? And just to make things clear, I have zero interest in having sex with another woman; my wife is all I need but I want her to have this opportunity to live life to the fullest.
