So I don’t really know what this all is, but recently the idea of being with more than just one person (sexually and/or romantically) has become interesting to me. I’d like to chalk it up to being lonely(my husband is gone for 2 weeks, home for 2 days, repeat)
I don’t really know what to do with this feeling because I was raised in a pretty strict monogamous situation and I don’t think hubs would be down (plus the whole stress of adding another person(s)). And I’m not even sure if it’s a real feeling or, like I said, loneliness.
How do I even deal with this?
Expanding your circle of friends(not fwb's) and adding hobbies might be an alternative and certainly less complicated than NM.
I have some very close platonic female friendships I have fostered and it has been very good for me on many levels.
Also maybe you could encourage your husband to look for a different job - it cannot be good for him either.
Good luck - your thoughts around nm make sense, consider it carefully before acting!

Well you need to develop a life with more people in it, being alone too much is bad. I know how hard it can be, but do try.
I am sorry your husband is not more on board to a career change, it sounds like a horrible life for both of you!
