He asked me to write this and I was annoyed for a fortnight
Looking for somebody who understands this was not my idea and is now mine
He asked me to write this, and I was quietly furious about it for a fortnight, and it took most of that fortnight to work out why. It was not the request. It was that he had been thinking about it for years and had let me find out in a single evening.
We are past that now. What I resented, once I could name it, was being handed something enormous already fully formed. He has since apologised for the delivery rather than for the wanting, which was the correct apology.
Thirty four, Brooklyn, married six years. Nothing has happened yet. I have gone from angry to curious to something I would now honestly call interested, and the change has been mine rather than his, which matters to me more than it probably does to anybody reading.
What I need is somebody unhurried. I do not know what I want in any detail and I am not going to invent it for the sake of a better post. What I do know is that I want to meet somebody, several times, with him there, and find out how I feel in a room rather than in theory.
He will be at the first meeting and every one after it until I say otherwise, and he has no opinion about that beyond wanting me to be comfortable. Not looking for anyone who wants to tell me what I am going to discover about myself. Not looking for anyone who writes as though my husband is the obstacle. Not looking to be somebody's success story.
Before the first drink Replying goes through the connected platform, so nothing about you is shared until you decide to share it. Take contact slowly and keep identifying details back until trust is earned. Meet somewhere public the first time, with your own way home from it, and if you are a couple then go together. Tell someone outside it where you are going. Never send money to someone you have not met. And if a post or a reply reads wrong, flag it rather than talking yourself out of the feeling.
