Iâm a 40-year-old bi man. Iâve been with my 33-year-old bi wife for three years and married for one. When we first met, she made it clear that she was in a long-term (more than three years) âDaddyâ relationship with an older man. I figured out six months later that her âDaddyâ was her boss and business partner. He is married, and his wife does not know. I struggled with their relationship, since I identify as open but not poly. Eight months later, she ended things with him because it was âlogically rightâ for us (her words). But she cheated with him four times over the course of two years. In all other aspects, our relationship is the greatest one Iâve ever had. I do not doubt her love for me. My wife has met her biological father only a couple of times and her stepfather died when she was...
Distressed About Deceitful Dynamics Involving Entangled Spouse
You donât need my permission to consider this arrangementâallowing the wife to have two daddiesâbecause youâre clearly already considering it. (Youâve moved on to the bargaining and/or writing-letters-to-sex-advice-columnists stage of consideration, the final stage before acceptance.) What you want, DADDIES, is my permission to do this, not just to think about it. Permission granted. Could it all come to shit? Anything and everything could come to shit. But your wife has been fucking this guy the entire time youâve been together, and you nevertheless regard this relationship as the greatest one youâve ever had. It stands to reason that if things were great when she was honest with you about fucking her boss (at the start) and remained great despite being dishonest with you about fucking her boss (the last two years), you three are in a good position to make this work now that everything is out in the open.
As for your other concerns: Most of the poly people I know started out as either monogamous or âopen but not polyâ (people evolve), we find out about secret workplace romances only when they blow up (skewed samples make for skewed perceptions), and you need more info about the other manâs wife before you issue an ultimatum or pick up the phone yourself (their marriage could be loving but companionate, he could be staying in a loveless marriage for good reasons, they could have agreed to a DADT arrangement regarding affairs). But again, DADDIES, youâre asking if something that seems to be working in practice might actually work in practice. And Iâm thinking, yeah, it probably could.
Iâm a 31-year-old gay man who looks 45. Most men interested in me are surprisingly up-front about expressing their desire to include a father-son element. Even men older than me call me âdaddyâ unprompted. I try not to be judgmental, but this repulses me. People who are into other forms of out-of-the-mainstream sex approach their kinks respectfully and establish mutual interest and obtain consent in advance. Why arenât I given the same consideration when it comes to incest role-play? And where does this come from? Were all these men molested by their fathers?
Desperately Avoiding Discussing Disgusting Incest
Whoa, DADDI. Just as gay men who call themselves or their partners âboyâ donât mean âminorâ and arenât fantasizing about child rape, gay men who call themselves or their partners âdaddyâ donât mean âbiological fatherâ and arenât fantasizing about father-son incest. Daddy is an honorific that eroticizes a perceived age and/or experience gap; itâs about authority and sexual dominance, not paternity and incestuous deviance. If being called âdaddyâ turns you off, you should say so, and your partners should immediately knock that âdaddyâ shit off. But you shouldnât assume every gay guy who calls you âdaddyâ is into incest and/or was molested by his bio dad, because 99.999 percent of the time thatâs just not going to be true.
Think about it this way, DADDI: When a straight woman calls her man âbaby,â no one thinks, âOMG! Sheâs into raping babies!â Pet namesâused casually or during sexâarenât to be taken literally.
I have a sugar baby who is a mature post-op trans woman. She is very attractive but also very high maintenance. (She has OCD.) I pay her $300 per anal sex event; I help with bills, food, etc.; and I spend every weekend with her. I probably spend $15,000 a year on her. Iâm happy most of the time (the sex is great), but does this arrangement sound fair?
Daddy Asking Dan
Divide the money youâre spending annually ($15,000) by the number of weeks in the year (52), DAD, and your anal-sex-event-packed weekends are only costing you $288.46 a pop. Seeing as most sex workers charge 10 to 20 times as much for a full weekend, Iâd say you arenât spending too much. (If this arrangement is unfair to anyone, DAD, itâs unfair to your sugar baby.) Now, if youâre only pulling in 30K a year, spending half your pre-tax wages on a sugar baby is unsustainable. But if that 15K represents a small percentage of your annual income, DAD, you should give your sugar baby a raise.
Iâm a 30-year-old woman who has always been more attracted to older men. I was with a guy last year who liked to be called âDaddy,â which was hard because he was six years younger. But now Iâm secretly sleeping with someone whoâs 34 years older than me. Itâs not just sexâwe have so much in common and weâre falling in love. I donât know how long I can handle being a secret, but I donât know if I can come out of hiding because of the age difference. Heâs not as ashamed and would be more open if I wanted to be. Thoughts?
Ashamed Sex Has All My Emotional Damage
You havenât been with This Old Dad long enough to determine if you have a future together, ASHAMED, so you can kick the coming-out can down the road another six months. If it turns out you two are emotionally compatible as well as sexually compatible, and you decide to make a life together, then youâll have to go public. And if you find yourself worrying about being judged due to the age difference, just think of all the homos out there who went public despite their partnersâ genital similarities. If we could stare down disapproving family members and small-town prudes, ASHAMED, so can you.
