My
wife has told me she would like to have sex with another woman.
She says she still loves me and is attracted to me, but has lately
become attracted to women as well. I'm not sure how I feel about
this. Should I be concerned?
When
it comes to extramarital sex, regardless of whether it is straight
or gay sex, emotional bonds are risked being broken. It is
important for you and your wife to communicate about each others
wants, desires, and intentions. Whether she has sex with another
woman needs to be a mutual decision based on trust and commitment.
It is unacceptable for one partner to engage in something that
would make the other partner uncomfortable. Ultimately you and
your wife will need to address your concerns so you both feel
secure with whatever you choose to do. - Answer provided by

Whether it is sex
with another woman or another guy, it is still a violation to what
most people establish in a relationship - fidelity. If you make an
arrangement with you partner to be with other people, then this is
a different issue. Now the issue on the table is replacement -
will this woman replace me? This is a question that will need to
be discussed with your partner prior to her being sexual with
another. Two women is a very common male sexual fantasy. You will
need to be clear within yourself if this is really what you want
and how you will deal with it if she begins to lean toward this
woman and away from you. - Answer provided by Michael Gonzales,
