Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Hey everyone,
I wanted to share my journey with this fantasy, my excitement, my struggles, and the deep internal conflict I’ve been facing. I’ve been wrestling with this for years, and I hope that by opening up, I might gain some insight from those who have walked this path.
I first shared my cuckold/hotwife fantasies with my wife about two and a half years ago. She was open-minded and receptive, and while she doesn’t have a personal need to explore it, she genuinely enjoys the dirty talk. In fact, her body really responds to it, and it’s only intensified our already incredible sex life. We’ve always had an amazing connection—physically and emotionally—and this has only made our intimacy more intense in some ways.
But despite the arousal, I feel trapped between two opposing forces. On one hand, this fantasy excites me like nothing else. On the other, I can’t shake the feeling that it’s parasitic and destructive—something that will erode what we have rather than enhance it. I fear that even if we continue loving each other, this will eventually change our relationship forever in ways I can’t predict or undo.
For context, we’re both in our 40s and have been together since college—24 years. I’m 6 feet tall, a former athlete with a strong build, and well above average in size. My wife is 5’4, with a gorgeous slim body, large breasts, and a stunning face. Beyond that, she has this intoxicating, magnetic personality that makes people naturally drawn to her. She’s my best friend, my greatest passion, and the thought of jeopardizing what we have terrifies me.
One thing I should mention is that I’m not really into the humiliation aspect that some people associate with cuckolding. My fantasy is almost always MFM, with me being an active participant—not excluded, not degraded, just there, fully involved. In many ways, it feels like a natural extension of my attraction to her and the way I’ve always been turned on by her being flirty with other men. Looking back, I realize this arousal has been with me for a long time, even before I fully understood what it meant.
But now, as this desire becomes more defined, I feel disgusted with myself. I feel depressed, ashamed, and desperate to find a way to stop.
More than anything, I am afraid of what this would mean for my family. I don’t want to lose what we have, I don’t want to hurt my wife, and I don’t want to risk something that has been the foundation of my life for over two decades. But the more I try to push it away, the more it lingers.
I’ve been diving into research on this, and I believe this fantasy is a manifestation of deeper psychological factors, possibly past trauma or attachment dynamics. Studies suggest that some men eroticize feelings of submission, competition, or inadequacy as a way to process unresolved emotions. Others may have grown up with unstable attachments or experiences that shaped how they view intimacy and validation. This isn’t to say that every person with these fantasies is "broken," but I suspect in my case, it’s tied to something deeper.
So that’s where I am - thrilled and aroused, but also deeply uneasy, ashamed, and afraid. I wanted to share with people who understand because I feel like I’m at a crossroads. Has anyone else felt this way? How did you navigate it?
Would love to hear your thoughts.

Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Welcome to OHW!
I think that it would be better not to feel ashamed of who you are, your desires - your kink. You probably can't change it, so why not embrace it? You did part of that when you told your wife. Most of us here are like you. I'm not ashamed. I don't think my kink is a reaction to any sort of trauma, not that the 'why' really matters. It just is. Take it easier on yourself.
Only you and your wife can decide whether - or how far - to move from fantasy to reality. There's nothing wrong with having a good fantasy life together, and leaving it at that! A lot will depend on your individual personalities. Your marriage sounds solid, and that's a good place (ideally the only place) to start from. What sort of relationship do you both have to sexual acts? Is it something she/you can only do within a framework of feelings? Or can you separate 'love' and sex, and enjoy fucking for its own sake? Are you OK with either or both scenarios?
You don't have to be into humiliation or anything like that. Lots of us aren't. In my case, I just get turned on by my wife being naughty.
I don't think you need to think of it as crossing the Rubicon. If you decide to try some form of non-monogamy, you can always go back. By that I don't mean that you can un-fuck, but you can try to keep your outlook philosophical, and you don't have to assume that your marriage would be irrevocably altered. If she had had one more (or one fewer) sex partners before you met, would it change the way you feel about one another? Sometimes we try things and decide they're not for us, but we don't need to regret trying them. Other times, we try things and like them a lot! But you'll never know unless you try. Whether to know, or not, has to be your individual decision.
Has your wife visited OHW? I think it helped my wife a lot, to come here and do some reading -- to understand my kink better, and to meet some of the people already happily engaged in this lifestyle. The other VHW ladies have been a great resource and support for her.

Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Thanks very much for the response leggsyman. I really appreciate it.
You are right to point out that this can remain a fantasy but I just feel like we are on the road to a place I both want and don’t want.
It will take me some time I think to embrace this - whatever it is but I am glad there is a non judgmental space to express things like this.
You asked about my wife and how she is about sex - for her it’s very much tied up with love and is certainly not a simple physical act of pleasure. And I am certainly not ok with her falling for someone else - I am not even sure I could handle just the physical act.
I’ll consider introducing her to this site in time but not yet. I think it would intimidate her as it takes a while to understand the multiple flavours of preference here.

Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
my suggestion - go to a regular nudist resort. Stay in the open with all the rest. Then retire to some place at a distance, behind the bushes. Lie down there and close your eyes, her eyes. Start playing around and do not go too far. My best fantasy is when hubby and wife use light eye covers and neither can see what happens, then touch her, make her touch you and just lie still...wait for steps coming nearer...sb will address you - for sure - better not to see who he is and what he does to you or your partner...it is a suitable test without the big thing and you can discuss the effects...this is below the threshold and excites - according to your abilities...try it...and see...
pls contact me if you want to share experiences with me

Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
First, welcome OHW!
Not to minimize your angst, but I would suggest that your conflicted feelings are normal. I don’t think I’ve ever met a cuck, whether they were a wannabe or experienced, who didn’t experience similar feelings at some point. At a minimum, the desire significantly deviates from societal norms, which will cause some issues and doubts.
So, you’re not alone. These feelings are to be expected. I would frankly be surprised to meet someone who didn’t have them.
I won’t wade in on the “broken” factors you mentioned now, but I will give you a different perspective. In my experience, my cuckolds only developed their cuckold desires once they were with their wives or at least in another very serious relationship. That has always suggested a deeper meaning to me. Their desires are based on wanting the women they love and adore to have as much pleasure as possible, even if that takes involving another partner. That’s different than other common sexual fantasies, like, say, wanting an FMF threesome. I think it helps to explain why this fantasy becomes so much more intense than those previous fantasies (As you said, it excites you like nothing else).
So, rather reflecting something wrong or broken about the husbands, I think it reveals how much they love their wives.
In your case, it is apparent that you love your wife too. The way you talk about her and your marriage is very endearing. Correct me if I am wrong, but I would guess that your fantasies don’t revolve around the simple act of her being with just any other guy but are instead about her having the best, most pleasurable sex possible. You want something special for her.
Sound about right?
Don’t worry about the whole humiliation thing. Sadly, too often, people group together multiple kinks, and that can scare people off. Overly prescriptive labels usually hurt rather than help. While there may be some common themes, every person and couple is different and should be treated as such. I never assume that just because one of my cucks or couples liked something, the next one will. Just because some cucks like humiliation doesn’t mean they all will.
The starting point is your desire to share your wife, but from there, the best approach would be to ask what excites you.
Regarding practical advice, I recommend that you two slowly explore things, with the total understanding that you two can stop at any time. You said that sharing the fantasy with her has improved your sex life. That’s a great start. You can then slowly work up from there by, for instance, introducing a dildo into your play or going out to a bar and encouraging her to flirt and dance with other men (you said you loved watching her flirt). And that could be it. If you don’t want to progress beyond that, don’t. If, on the other hand, you two decide you want to explore more, you can look at some next steps. Nothing is irreversible. Nothing commits you to go further than you want.
Anyway, I hope that helps a little. I am happy to discuss things further and offer more tailored advice. Best of luck, and don’t doubt you’re a fantastic husband.

Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
I think that your fears are valid, but not your shame. I believe, that for many of us who have these fantasies, it is about that natural desire to feel some validation of our attraction to our woman. We all have felt that excitement of validation, when we first introduced a new girlfriend to our buddies and they make a fuss over her, and tell us how lucky we are, and how wonderful she is.Bullbe wrote: ↑Mon Feb 17, 2025 6:43 amHey everyone, .......

Many of us naturally get a little thrill when we walk into a public place, and catch other men, and maybe even women, admiring the woman we are with. It is exciting to realize, that those other people admire her beauty, and would want to be with her. A hot wife fantasy is just an extension of that, I believe. It is that extreme end of the fantasy, thinking about other people Desiring her, and actually seeing it happen.
You don't have to actually act on the fantasy. You can keep it at a fantasy level and share it with your wife.
While in bed together, and touching each other, you can ask her to tell her about an imaginary lover she might have. Ask her to tell you what he would look like, and what they would do together.
Share your celebrity crushes with one another. And ask her what her fantasy date would be with her celebrity crush. Have her pick out men in public that she finds attractive.

I do feel that that it’s not just one single thing - I absolutely am turned on by my wife’s pleasure. In fact I can hardly control myself when she is on. So there is a lot too that point you make.
However, I do feel that there may be darker reasons also and I wonder if I (and we) looked to address these things we would reduce or even remove this drive?
It’s hard because it’s so alluring that I am not sure I want to lose it but also I am absolutely afraid of following through!
What a puzzle!!!
But thanks for taking the time to respond it has helped me a lot
Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Thanks for the advice. I like this approach and I think I will try to lean into the fantasy sharing a bit more with my wife.MartasBoy wrote: ↑Sun Feb 23, 2025 9:22 amI think that your fears are valid, but not your shame.

On the shame thing - that will take time for me but I am keen to hear how anyone else as dealt with it.
Also, I am keen to hear from people you tried it on real life then decided it wasn’t for them. How was your realationship after? Did the fantasy die? Anything else?
Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Hello Bullbe,
I'm totally new to this forum, and I'm at a very early stage, I have not even really told my wife about my ideas yet (we were just kidding). But I can tell you that I'm walking exactly the same path as you do right now.
It's extremely difficult, especially when there is a functioning family in the background.
But you are definitely not alone.

Subject: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Hi Bullbe and welcome to OHW. I had planned on a short PM response but chose to post it as it grew longer.
I've thought hard about your struggle with shame and have a few questions and comments.
1) Does it stem from respect?
Are you concerned your wife would lose respect for you if she knew you wanted this in real life?
Is the concern how people other than your wife would view you and/or your wife?
2) Fear of loss.
Are you afraid she might leave you?
3) Misinterpretation
Labels (like cuck) tend to confuse peoples' understanding of your actual situation.
It will be important for your wife understand the motivation you describe and eliminate any other ulterior motives she might suspect.
4) Psychology and Statistics
Please do yourself a favor and leave statistics out of the equation. Stats consist of a number of data points, only one of which is you and your wife, the others don't matter.
5) Disgust
I am most interested in your response to this more than any other question. Even though you presently enjoy a great relationship with your wife, you are only wanting her to experience more joy in her life, right?
6) Trust and Communicate
As much as you think you know your wife, you can only be sure how she feels about it is if you ask her directly and trust her response.
Please consider that, if she loves you, she would want you to share something that is so important to you. It's unlikely she would want you to carry this burden alone. This requires trust in her willingness to hear you and her recognition that this comes from your heart with love. If the situation was reversed, you would want to help her with it wouldn't you?
This comes from experience, there is ZERO chance your relationship would NOT change.
However, if you consider your current relationship to be close to ideal, you have no idea how the orders of magnitude the level of trust and love between you can improve.
Sending my best to both of you.
Hi Bullbe and welcome to OHW. I had planned on a short PM response but chose to post it as it grew longer.

1) Does it stem from respect?
Are you concerned your wife would lose respect for you if she knew you wanted this in real life?
It doesn't seem your wife has a problem with the concept in general....She was open-minded and receptive, and while she doesn’t have a personal need to explore it, she genuinely enjoys the dirty talk...
Is the concern how people other than your wife would view you and/or your wife?
2) Fear of loss.
Could you clarify what you have that you fear might erode?...something that will erode what we have rather than enhance it.
Excellent! You love her. You are in love with her!She’s my best friend, my greatest passion, and the thought of jeopardizing what we have terrifies me.
Are you afraid she might leave you?
3) Misinterpretation
This is important. There should be no misinterpretation of your position on this by your wife or anyone else.One thing I should mention is that I’m not really into the humiliation aspect that some people associate with cuckolding. My fantasy is almost always MFM, with me being an active participant—not excluded, not degraded, just there, fully involved.
Labels (like cuck) tend to confuse peoples' understanding of your actual situation.
I get how proud you can be to be married to a fantastic, beautiful woman.In many ways, it feels like a natural extension of my attraction to her and the way I’ve always been turned on by her being flirty with other men.
It will be important for your wife understand the motivation you describe and eliminate any other ulterior motives she might suspect.
4) Psychology and Statistics
...I’ve been diving into research on this, and I believe this fantasy is a manifestation of deeper psychological factors, possibly past trauma or attachment dynamics. Studies suggest that some men eroticize feelings of submission, competition, or inadequacy as a way to process unresolved emotions. Others may have grown up with unstable attachments or experiences that shaped how they view intimacy and validation. This isn’t to say that every person with these fantasies is "broken," but I suspect in my case, it’s tied to something deeper...
Please do yourself a favor and leave statistics out of the equation. Stats consist of a number of data points, only one of which is you and your wife, the others don't matter.
5) Disgust
Are you disgusted that you feel you are being disrespectful of your wife, or is it something else?But now, as this desire becomes more defined, I feel disgusted with myself. I feel depressed, ashamed, and desperate to find a way to stop.
I am most interested in your response to this more than any other question. Even though you presently enjoy a great relationship with your wife, you are only wanting her to experience more joy in her life, right?
6) Trust and Communicate
It lingers because it is important to you.But the more I try to push it away, the more it lingers...
As much as you think you know your wife, you can only be sure how she feels about it is if you ask her directly and trust her response.
Please consider that, if she loves you, she would want you to share something that is so important to you. It's unlikely she would want you to carry this burden alone. This requires trust in her willingness to hear you and her recognition that this comes from your heart with love. If the situation was reversed, you would want to help her with it wouldn't you?
It's clear you love and will love your wife regardless of a hotwife future or not.I fear that even if we continue loving each other, this will eventually change our relationship forever in ways I can’t predict or undo.
This comes from experience, there is ZERO chance your relationship would NOT change.
However, if you consider your current relationship to be close to ideal, you have no idea how the orders of magnitude the level of trust and love between you can improve.
Sending my best to both of you.
I'm T, Mkindling's husband.

Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Excellent analysis restarting. Its all about being truthful with the wife. The worse case senario is she will determine its not for her other than fantasy in the bedroom and that is also ok
Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Have to agree the celebrity crush is a great ice breaker. Then role play. The wife is a fan of Idris elba- and had some fantastic nights with him 🫢MartasBoy wrote: ↑Sun Feb 23, 2025 9:22 amI think that your fears are valid, but not your shame. I believe, that for many of us who have these fantasies, it is about that natural desire to feel some validation of our attraction to our woman. We all have felt that excitement of validation, when we first introduced a new girlfriend to our buddies and they make a fuss over her, and tell us how lucky we are, and how wonderful she is.Bullbe wrote: ↑Mon Feb 17, 2025 6:43 amHey everyone, .......

Many of us naturally get a little thrill when we walk into a public place, and catch other men, and maybe even women, admiring the woman we are with. It is exciting to realize, that those other people admire her beauty, and would want to be with her. A hot wife fantasy is just an extension of that, I believe. It is that extreme end of the fantasy, thinking about other people Desiring her, and actually seeing it happen.
You don't have to actually act on the fantasy. You can keep it at a fantasy level and share it with your wife.
While in bed together, and touching each other, you can ask her to tell her about an imaginary lover she might have. Ask her to tell you what he would look like, and what they would do together.
Share your celebrity crushes with one another. And ask her what her fantasy date would be with her celebrity crush. Have her pick out men in public that she finds attractive.

Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Exactly how I was with wife. We have made progress which is great for sex life. Naughty talk, role play, introduced nice bigger dildo (black 🫢). This has come with confidence and not the insecurity of are younger years.Bullbe wrote: ↑Mon Feb 17, 2025 6:43 amHey everyone,
I wanted to share my journey with this fantasy, my excitement, my struggles, and the deep internal conflict I’ve been facing. I’ve been wrestling with this for years, and I hope that by opening up, I might gain some insight from those who have walked this path.
I first shared my cuckold/hotwife fantasies with my wife about two and a half years ago. She was open-minded and receptive, and while she doesn’t have a personal need to explore it, she genuinely enjoys the dirty talk. In fact, her body really responds to it, and it’s only intensified our already incredible sex life. We’ve always had an amazing connection—physically and emotionally—and this has only made our intimacy more intense in some ways.
But despite the arousal, I feel trapped between two opposing forces. On one hand, this fantasy excites me like nothing else. On the other, I can’t shake the feeling that it’s parasitic and destructive—something that will erode what we have rather than enhance it. I fear that even if we continue loving each other, this will eventually change our relationship forever in ways I can’t predict or undo.
For context, we’re both in our 40s and have been together since college—24 years. I’m 6 feet tall, a former athlete with a strong build, and well above average in size. My wife is 5’4, with a gorgeous slim body, large breasts, and a stunning face. Beyond that, she has this intoxicating, magnetic personality that makes people naturally drawn to her. She’s my best friend, my greatest passion, and the thought of jeopardizing what we have terrifies me.
One thing I should mention is that I’m not really into the humiliation aspect that some people associate with cuckolding. My fantasy is almost always MFM, with me being an active participant—not excluded, not degraded, just there, fully involved. In many ways, it feels like a natural extension of my attraction to her and the way I’ve always been turned on by her being flirty with other men. Looking back, I realize this arousal has been with me for a long time, even before I fully understood what it meant.
But now, as this desire becomes more defined, I feel disgusted with myself. I feel depressed, ashamed, and desperate to find a way to stop.
More than anything, I am afraid of what this would mean for my family. I don’t want to lose what we have, I don’t want to hurt my wife, and I don’t want to risk something that has been the foundation of my life for over two decades. But the more I try to push it away, the more it lingers.
I’ve been diving into research on this, and I believe this fantasy is a manifestation of deeper psychological factors, possibly past trauma or attachment dynamics. Studies suggest that some men eroticize feelings of submission, competition, or inadequacy as a way to process unresolved emotions. Others may have grown up with unstable attachments or experiences that shaped how they view intimacy and validation. This isn’t to say that every person with these fantasies is "broken," but I suspect in my case, it’s tied to something deeper.
So that’s where I am - thrilled and aroused, but also deeply uneasy, ashamed, and afraid. I wanted to share with people who understand because I feel like I’m at a crossroads. Has anyone else felt this way? How did you navigate it?
Would love to hear your thoughts.
Her being placed by a another bigger man is constant fantasy for me but still unsure how would be if we actually did it

Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Yes, my wife has a celebrity crush on George Clooney, and has been willing to tell me what she could imagine an evening with him would be like, from dinner date to bed.
And Idris Elba is pretty cool. I have a bit of a guy crush on him as well. I keep hearing talk that some people have suggested him as the next James Bond, and the people who complain that James Bond could never be a black man. I think he'd make a really cool James Bond.

Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
i notice in reading the stories, i notice a common theme in some of them...there is some distrust already brewing in some of the husbands, suspecting that something may already be going on with your wife and another man, or something she has done or said that makes you doubt her faithfulness to you.
just some food for thought.

That’s not the case for me for sure. The disgust comes from my own judgment of myself that I have this desire that can threaten a wonderful and special thing we have built.
This is dissipating a lot though - as I talk with my wife I have been able to accept it more and more.
So many people here keep repeating communication is key - so far this advice has helped me beyond belief. Being honest and straightforward has opened this up in an amazing way with my wife.
Thanks to everyone who has responded here and PM over last few weeks - it’s been a huge help

Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
In my experience as a BF, I have come to realize that your fantasies are no different than many men, in fact most men, even though they might keep them hidden within themselves feeling as you do.. the thought that there is something wrong with these desires. There is nothing wrong with these desires.. in fact they are quite common.
What I think is massively misunderstood is that women have these same fantasies and desires, but are much more private and discrete with them. They live as respectful wives and mothers and follow what society dictates as “normal”. But deep inside they also have these same sexual desires but most never have the opportunity to experience them other than cheating.. which is quite prevalent in our society… what a shame.
The fact that you can both fantasize and feel the sexual experiences together by freely exposing both of your fantasies and desires is nothing short of wonderful !! Being this open with each other may or may not lead to moving further ahead into a hot wife/cuckold relationship.. but if it does, as long as you are doing it TOGETHER there is nothing disgusting or destructive about experiencing both of your desires. Don’t push, but instead let your sexual excitement lead you. You will both be happy with the result no matter how far it goes.
Stop trying to dive into why or what has caused these feelings. It is mostly human nature and you cannot fight or change that. Sex is animalistic and has a life of its own no matter the reason. Enjoy what you have as you are now experiencing and let it lead where it may.
I am no expert, but based on my observations with hot wife/cuckold couples, this is what I see. Best wishes…
Brad

Re: Torn Between Desire and Disgust – Struggling with My Fantasy*l
Hello Bullbe --
Thanks so much for your initial and subsequent posts--really appreciate the detail with which you recount your experience. I'm new here and experiencing ALL of the emotions you describe so vividly and painfully. Like you, I'm torn apart (careening between desire and shame) by a scenario that my wife and I have yet to realize, but which seems more and more inevitable. And like you, I worry about what may be lost or irrevocably changed in our marriage and the life that we have built together.
In my case, my wife has initiated our foray into HotWifing (my marriage is very much an FLR) but we have consulted carefully and in detail all along the way (as I trust we will continue to do). It's an emotional rollercoaster--I am grateful to this site for the support and advice it provides!
All good wishes as you and your wife proceed!
