I had sex with my husband's best friend - it was his idea - will I find a need for more men?Ī family friend, who was widowed about ten months ago, visits us about once a month when he comes to the city on business.How we live is indelibly intertwined with the care and empathy we give to each other. After dinner last month, he expressed to my husband how difficult it was to meet a woman and how frustrating it was to have gone so long without sex.

When we went to bed that night, my husband asked me if i could find it possible to have sex with his friend. My husband is not a jealous man and i knew he would not be angry with me if i said yes. I went to our friend's bedroom and told him what my husband wanted me to do. It was a little awkward at first, but we had sex and i went back to our bedroom.

I don't want to become a grossly indecent woman, but i really like being able to satisfy our friend.
