As far as your question about in what circumstances they've told each other they love each other, Lana told me that it's only been in the context of during and right after they've made love, and it's always him saying it first to her. They've also had talks about their feelings while cuddling in bed where he's asked about it turning into something more, how I factor into it, and how it's his first time being in love. She's made it very clear to him that I'm the love of her life and her soulmate, and no matter how she feels for him, nothing will ever change that fact, so if their relationship and love evolves, it will without a doubt have to have me as a part of it. She told me that he wasn't upset by this and in fact, very understanding. He's changed greatly in a year and his emotional development is really impressive.
After reading your concerns, I checked Lana's phone (it's fine, we have an open phone policy between us) and looked at the chat between her and Shawn and I have no doubts that she's being completely honest and open with me about what she claims her relationship is like with Shawn.
In regards to the question about how I'll feel if and when they make love and tell each other their feelings in front of me - as of this moment, I feel like I will be able to handle it, but that could be me being naive as I have been so many times in the last year. I mentioned this to Lana and that it's the biggest thing I'm trying to handle right now. It was one thing to watch her on all fours screaming out how much better he fucks than me. It's entirely something else seeing him slowly and passionately thrust in and out of her while they stare into each other's eyes, her hands clasped together behind his neck and her legs pulling him tightly. She's been incredibly sensitive to my feelings and we've agreed that outside of saying it to him during and right after making love, she will not tell him that she loves him in any other context without clearing it with me first. And I still have full stop powers and can use it whenever I see fit.
...
35532734dreamer and you, along with a lot of other posters have been very accurate in your warnings and telling me to always be vigilant in looking for red flags and to constantly check my blind spots. I understand that Lana has had some instances of not revealing full truths until later, but I've never found any secret communication between her and other guys, nothing where she's outright lied to me in a way that I've considered to be important (taking Adam's bare cock probably being the biggest, pun intended, and even that wasn't something that I found to be something we couldn't easily get past).
Ultimately, I feel like she really understands this kink now, whereas before we ever met Shawn, she would just always tell me it was just a weird little fetish that I was into whenever I asked her to at least role play scenarios where I was a different guy and she was cheating on me.
I really do feel more confident than worried about our future exploration into this lifestyle and I'm very grateful to have people constantly checking my blind spots.
...
Update: we're at Lana's parents' place but we found some time to sneak off and have some fun. We video called Shawn, and had him watch. And what has become a part of our foreplay, she denied me her making love to her, and instead I gave her oral. I made her cum twice while she stared right into the camera for Shawn while he watched.
...
Yeah he was having Thanksgiving dinner with some friend's family's house at the time so he had to sneak off to the bathroom to watch,

.
Update: I tend to wake up earlier than everyone, usually for the gym, but especially whenever we stay with her parents as my back usually hates sleeping on the bed they have in their spare bedroom. So I'm fully awake now with a raging hard on, wanting really badly to either wake Lana up and make love or at least jerk off, neither of which will be happening. It just dawned on me that although Shawn comes here in 3 weeks, that I might be denied Lana's pussy until after he leaves, which means I might not be able to cum for 6 weeks. I really don't know if that's possible...
Hi w770.
You are really killing it with the responses. I am very appreciative that you take the time to respond and are so open with us. Watching out for you is the least we can do in return.
This is great that you have established the scope of Lana's feelings and it sounds like the two of you are much more in sync again. I didn't get the impression that Lana was communicating with Shawn in an emotional cheating kind of way, more that she had compartmentalized those feelings while away from him and that they would resurface once they were together again. But I think you can feel confident and reassured that Lana knows and accepts how you feel and gives you the ultimate say in the matter. Letting you increase it or decrease it as you feel comfortable.
I also think you deserve recognition for not only grappling with your emotions and communicating them, but also for setting some boundaries. I don't think I would be able to. I think I would be too caught up in the arousal and hotness of the situation and let my SO go as far as she can go, perhaps even encouraging her to say it first while they are making love to each other, staring into each others eyes, as she is about to cum. I probably would even allow it outside of sex, even if it hurt me, choosing to swallow the hurt instead because I had encouraged it. Alas, I am not as good at communicating as you W, and I would probably end up retreating into myself rather than being open. I still have a ways to go, but you are an inspiration W.
Knowing what we know now, I agree with parmaham55 that Lana's feelings for Shawn shouldn't be viewed as less feelings for W. And I agree as well with lovethis that everyone involved has been respectful of eachothers boundaries, when they have been properly communicated. Thus the development of emotions doesn't need to be viewed as threatening.
Two additional points of interest:
1. Lana came TWICE by you hand while she was staring at Shawn during the video call. I think she can't wait for him to be inside her again.
2. You've mentioned several times now the idea of being denied access to Lana's pussy while Shawn is there. I'm almost starting to think you like that idea...

Maybe if you are only denied penetration you can still go down on her after Shawn has filled her up, as your way to reconnect with Lana...
I would wish you well, but I see there are so many new posts already that I will be responding again shortly!
Thank you and I have a hard time believing that you struggle with communication considering how you've expressed your thoughts here. Anyway, as to your two points here - yes, I agree that Lana is very much anticipating having Shawn's hard cock inside of her again. She also really get turned on when she imagines it happening in front of me. And to your other point, yes the denial act has been incorporated into how we've played this out, as it's a form of foreplay at this point.

Thanks for all the updates. Looks like a fun 6 weeks ahead!
The discussions about them saying ‘I love you’ is interesting. I’m sure they do. There’s a difference between loving someone and being ‘in love’ with someone. It sounds like he may be in love but she ‘loves’ him and is ‘in love’ with you.
A part of me thinks you're right. Because if she was "in love" with Shawn, I feel like she would spend more time talking with him, message him cutesy things, wanting to know all about him, basically the things you do when you're in love.
The only thing that gives me pause and makes me think that she's very much "in love" is how her body moved and reacted to him while they had me watch as they made love. They were face to face the entire time, his chest up against hers, staring into each other's eyes when they weren't kissing, the way she arched her back when they came together, how tightly she pulled him in with her legs, how she grabbed his ass with her hands as he was cumming, it all signaled to me that she was very much in love. After he had regained his strength and was about to pull out of her and roll over, she stopped him and told him to stay inside of her and spent the next few minutes kissing. And to think, they had spent an entire weekend doing that multiple times all over his apartment, on top of every surface, in the shower, in his bed, etc. Who knows. Maybe it's infatuation.

Thank you. Your post made me feel more at ease. I think it's normal for a woman especially to develop feelings with someone she sleeps with. And Lana definitely has something about her that gets guys to fall for her rather quickly. I'm pretty glad that if she had to fall in love with anyone in the past year, it's Shawn and not Adam.
Hi again.
While I agree with KevDi69, your observation W makes me wonder if the situation is a bit more nuanced. Lana loves Shawn, certainly not as deeply as she loves you and might not be in love with him. But she sure seems to be "in love" with the sex they have. The way he fucks her, the way he makes love to her, the way he makes her cum again and again, the way he cums hard and deep inside her, the way he gets hard for her again, and the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc.. rounds that he can go.
That might be where Lana's strongest emotional attachment (sex = emotions) lies. Of course it helps that Shawn is big, good looking, muscular and has a friendly and good personality. But they don't have the years of understanding and trust building, the investment of time, energy, sweat and tears, or the feelings of being soulmates that exist between Lana and W.
But as long as the communication between the three of you remains free, open and honest, it would be reasonable that there shouldn't be any feelings of jealousy, hurt or bitterness. You might be feeling envious of what Shawn can do sexually to Lana. Fuck, I feel envious of him while I'm sitting here in my corner of the world. But that's not the same emotion as jealousy. When I feel envious of someone else, I acknowledge it and try to be happy for what the other person has instead of focusing on myself. Who knows, there might be something else the other person is envious of you for having or doing. And I'm not sure where I'm going with this, I seem to have gone off on a tangent. You got this W, and I am envious of you too.
Edit: something went wrong with the quoting
You make a really interesting divide between jealousy and envy and for the most part, I agree. I very much envy that Shawn, along with her other lovers in the past year, have all reached deeper inside her pussy than I have, and in that way, "know" her in a way I never will in that they know how she feels that far up. They've also seen her cum in a way I've never been able to bring her to and I envy that. But the thing I envy the most is how given the circumstances, they get to experience the side of her that is free from responsibilities, baggage, and all of the other things that come along with being with a partner for as long as we have been together. They get to see and have the side of her that is carefree and sexually submissive, which in turn, inspires their masculine side even more, which in turn, inspires more femininity out of her. I envy it, but don't wish to take away from anyone's experience as I'm happy for her and them.

If Lana can bring herself to share Shawn with one of her best friends, then that a sure sign that her love for him is not threatening to you. Lana is not showing any signs of jealousy over Shawn so far. Any sense of possessiveness on her part would perhaps be a sign of something deeper.
Lana doesn’t even need to ask you to be faithful fully to her, that’s a given, and deep. When/If she seeks that in Shawn too, perhaps that’s another level to seek, stepping into true poly relationship.
For example, she may enjoy the high of having Cara at a hot, sexy party with her and Shawn and Eric, but what if Shawn then hooks up with Cara later, one-on-one. How would Lana cope with that?
It's a good question and I feel like one that can only be answered only after Lana sees hypothetically Shawn and Cara together. She's been jealous of me noticing other beautiful women before, so it might speak to her level of love for Shawn if she doesn't get jealous of Shawn with other women.

Oh, wait, yes... I see what you mean. Cara. Yes, that'd be good to know.

Time to describe Caras celebrity look alike!
It's funny what separation/divorce will do. Since it became official, Cara has colored her hair a lighter brown and styled it somewhat differently. When Lana showed me a picture, I swear I thought it was a picture of this one model, Helen Owen. She's objectively a very good looking woman, but maybe it's just chemistry, but I've never been attracted to her. Lana let Shawn know the situation and sent pictures of Cara to him and he responded with "wow... Birds of a feather... You both are drop dead gorgeous."
Lana also let him know of Cara's martial situation and he said "looks like I'll be fucking two married women soon."
At this point, I really hope Cara and Cory don't get back together because I don't think he'll be able to handle getting back with Cara and hearing that she was with Shawn and maybe Shawn and Eric with Lana while they were separated.

W, if Cara joins in a foursome with Lana, Shawn and Eric, do you think you would be allowed to cleanup Cara as well?
Hmm.. I'm not sure actually. Cara has made comments in the past about finding me attractive, and like I said above, she is very objectively attractive, but I've never felt that way towards her. But when you factor in the "heat of the moment" decision making, it's hard to say.
I can't keep up. Ok, last post in a row, then at least a few hours break, promise.
Interesting development with Cara. Very curious if both Cara and Lana would be open to doing something together (as in at the same time and not with each other, necessarily), like a foursome (with Eric), couples swap or just being in the same room or on the same bed.
Sorry W, I don't see you getting anything besides a view of the action, if even that. That might be a hard boundary for Lana, even if she might not be aware of it. You have been selfless so far in that there hasn't been any reciprocity for you - your enjoyment is from the cuckold situation and Lana's enjoyment, not from another woman. If she sees you with another woman it might affect her more than she could realise. Would you be willing to risk that?
And would Cara even be comfortable with you watching her? With you stroking yourself? Would YOU be comfortable in front of her, while probably being compared to Shawn and Eric?
I mean it would be hot for sure, but you are also expanding the circle with a friend of Lana's and not some hung guy (as Shawn was in the beginning, he obviously isn't some hung guy anymore). Though maybe it would be positive for Lana, I have no idea here.
Now I will be reminded of the foursome couples swap Lana and Shawn had while she was in Cali. Where they both admitted after to feelings of jealousy at seeing each other having sex with someone else. So maybe a couple swap isn't the most likely scenario. Maybe Lana/Shawn and Cara/Erik having sex in the same room or on the same bed even is more likely. Hmm.. now I'm really starting to wonder what Cara's face would look like watching Lana and Shawn making love.. Surprise, shock, envy..? Argh, I'm getting carried away again.
So, W... Any thoughts yet on an anniversary "present" for Lana and Shawn?
Wish you, Lana and everyone all the best.
This is really interesting as I haven't committed too much thought to it yet. But now that you mention it, I really don't think that I can feel comfortable opening up that side of myself to Cara. In our friend group, I'm seen as a pretty masculine, assertive, and (not tooting my own horn here) but attractive guy, and our friends have all described Lana and I as the dream couple. They have no idea of this side of me and our lives, other than Cara. But to the extent that Cara is aware of, I don't think she is aware of how far we go in terms of the comments exchanged between Shawn, Lana, and myself, I don't think she knows of my inadequacy in terms of size and stamina, and I don't think I'm ready for her to know that side. So if there is a scenario where Cara in fact does get involved, I don't think I could bring myself to be present. And furthermore, if there were a Shawn/Eric/Lana/Cara situation, I would imagine that Lana would get jealous if Cara were to be with Shawn. She expressed to me how after some reflection, she really didn't like watching Shawn with Brad's girlfriend, furthering the notion that she's in love with him.
Your last question about the anniversary "present" - no thought yet given to that. I'll bring it up later tonight and see what she thinks.

I think there is no doubt that Lana is in love with Shawn, and I think it started with the late night “ cheating “ sessions and was cemented when she went out to California. I think the Cara/Erik possible inclusion is just a kinky twist to an already super hot situation. The main show is Lana and Shawn. I think it’s over the top hot that they are in love, and given the dynamic with W, perfectly natural and ok. If W is going to be celibate and denied the whole three weeks, I would expect several involuntary orgasms on his part. At least I’d ask to be jacked off about it in front of Shawn, Lana telling W how much better he fucks her. Finally, I think when W is doing his cleanup duty, it would be hot to clean up Shawn as well, cementing his place in the cuckold hierarchy. I can’t wait until December!
So it's about 3 weeks until he arrives, and I think he plans to stay for 3 weeks, so in the scenario where I'm denied Lana's pussy during that time, I might have to wait 6 weeks before I cum, which I honestly don't think I can do. So I think the picture you paint, in which I'm jacked off in front of Shawn, is the most likely.
Update: We just got home from Lana's parents' place, and Lana told me that she's incredibly horny. She's in the shower now and I'm about to jump in my own shower. The plan is to call up Shawn and Lana will play with her toy for him while I watch them enjoy each other. I'm going to try my best to not touch myself, but I don't see how that's going to be possible.
