My husband/NP (40M) and I (40F) have been together and monogamous for 18 years. We opened our relationship a few months ago.

As a woman on Feeld, it was easier to make matches, so I have been dating for awhile now, specifically one regular FWB (40M) I’ve seen several times. My husband has had to work a little harder, and finally had his first sexual experience with a new partner last night. He came home and was happy, but also having some of those new “holy shit, what just happened” emotions.

I mentioned that to my FWB via text, and he immediately responded with reassurance for me to pass along to my husband that it was all very normal, since he’s been through it recently too in opening his marriage. It helped my husband to feel better about everything and it definitely gave me warm fuzzies to see them connect in such a nice way. They haven’t met yet but I hope they will soon!
