I bookmarked this page a loooonnnggg time ago hoping it may again one day re-engage. It seems to be a relatively niche sub-fantasy and a slow burn in terms of internet stories on the subject, but one my wife and I overwhelming both really enjoy. We have even walked a (very) fine line about doing this for real, such has the thrill been, so reading your post was reassuring that 'it's not just us'...Greymancuck said:After reading this we both thought it was a hot fantasy and have decided to do a temporary break up to see what it feels like. Basically I’m going to go to a friends for at least a week, we’ve agreed it should be at least a week but I have the option of extending it if everything is ok. As far as my friend is concerned I am just visiting. Now the idea is I’ll be cold to him on the day it’s going to happen and then just say you know what I want a break, don’t contact me, don’t call anyone I know and I’ll hang up and block him from everything. Now he has asked if I can make this hurt as much as possible, so I thought one thing I could do is email him saying you know what I want this to be permanent I’m seeing a divorce lawyer half way through. Does anyone here have any advice or tips how to make it really sting and hurt for him.
In terms of your question re making it sting for him...I am the male in our relationship so will speak from my own understanding. The biggest 'sting' will be to tell somebody that you both know, or better still let him hear you tell someone, be it in person or on the phone. The closer the person to you, the bigger 'that sting', trust me.
For us, looking at properties for my wife to potentially rent for 6 months was hot, but you have that angle already covered. The isolation of him not hearing from you is deliciously painful and perhaps exceeding the pre-agreed date for return or contact would be nice and cruel to show how easy you found it. Posting on social media about things you've been doing without him will rile him for sure but you have already also nailed it by saying you'll be cold to him on the day. Having a small suitcase close by will add to the delicious pain as well...Leave your ring.
