I"m working from home this morning and had time to post an update.
I"m not sure who may be reading here about last night but with a queasy feeling in my stomach I am, I guess, proud to say that I did it last night.
However,I did leave it up to her. When I got home and over dinner I hinted around about tonight and got clear signs she was still horny and so I asked her both if she was ready and whether she was sure enough time had passed by. I did it sort of in passing conversation, not as the center of what we were talking about and I wasn't even sure if she'd heard me. I know that I was still sort of undecided.
We said goodnight to our son about 10pm and headed up to our bedroom. I won't say there was a tension between us but there was definitely something in the air so to speak. When we got into bed finally and started kissing and stuff she brought it up. She said again "thanks for being so considerate". I was sort of quiet and just kept up the kissing and stuff. I told her it was no big deal and that I just wanted to be sure she was okay and stuff like that.
As we started to get into it a bit more she said something like "...she did say 4 or 5 days...". And I could tell she was sort of tense too so I just asked "what's wrong?" and she just said it was nothing and she was just thinking to herself.
Now maybe it was my mind playing with me but it just seemed to me that she wasn't all there, like her mind was elsewhere. And to be honest, mine was too. I mean she was so wet and ready - and I knew I could just have her just like that - finally again after 14 years since she was on the pill. And yet I also knew that I wanted something else.
So it really came down to those few minutes. This morning I'm looking back and realizing how big that time was last night. And I guess I'm finally okay with accepting that I want to be a cuckold. I think I had ridden the fence a long time - this seemed like it just fell into place and I know that in those few moments last night, I let myself accept what I wanted.
I played hero and said "look, if you're still worried" - it took her a second to understand what I was saying. She then did the whole "I couldn't ask you again, I feel bad enough" speech.
As I said, I now realize that at that moment I knew exactly what I wanted. I think I surprised her by asking about whether she was still keeping Wedesdays to herself and she just nodded and said "hopefully" with this shy questioning look that I could not lie to.
And that was it - I just said 'I'll be okay" and then after a pause, I said it to her. I didn't say it loudly but I said it enough that she heard "it kind of turns-me on if that's what you want tonight".
It took her a moment to think about what I meant - she said "You know it's not like that - it's not that I don't want you". I looked at her and said something like that may be what she's telling herself but I "knew" there was more to it. And that's when I said "That's what turns-me on".
I didn't know if she would realize all of what I had said and implied until she said "you know what you are saying, that Brad..." and I cut her off and just said "yes, I know what it means". Again, maybe it's me but I swear I saw a smile and a look on her face at that moment.
She didn't tease me at all after that. Matter of fact, it was quite a passionate love-making session. Neither of us said anything else about that part of our fucking. No comment about the condom or what I thought was a lot of cum (for me) in it when we were done. Actually, it was just very passionate and very loving. Sometimes I'll be up on my elbows or have my arms fully extended when I'm on top of her but last night, she wanted me close and wrapped herself around me as we both orgasmed. All she said as she got out of bed to get us a washcloth was "Thank you" and "I love you".
And that was it. It's now almost 12 hours later and I am still turned-on and have a wicked hard-on writing this thinking about what I've done. She still hasn't said anything else to me about it. All I can think about is how I'm going to have to keep my hands off her tonight and what a struggle that will be. I am SURE that there will be some more talking tonight.
I feel good that I let it be her choice and that she got the courage and strength up to let herself say it - even if she told herself that wasn't the real reason, I'm okay with that. And I feel good that I finally said what I was thinking and that she was good with that too.
