Dad Starting Over

A husband wrote to me after 18 years of marriage.

Their sex life had slowed down like many long relationships.

Then one day his wife said something he never expected:

She wanted an open marriage.

She said it could make their relationship stronger.

He feels like the ground under his marriage suddenly shifted.

In this episode, I discuss:

• Why open marriage conversations often appear suddenly
• The role of novelty and new attention
• Why agreeing under pressure leads to resentment
• What a man should do when the relationship rules suddenly change
