My dad cheated on my mom when I was a kid. 10 years of cheating. I'm 42, middle child syndrome (gay but that's not the issue) and I'm in a 5 year relationship. My s/o is 18 years younger than me, in a different stage in life (retirement planning vs. going back to college) He has different interests, and thru a life of fending for myself (he's my first real relationship, I was 36, he was 18) I see a shrink, but lately, i want to get us into couples counseling. I love him, care about him, want the best for him, but...
the more issues we have, the more distant I feel, and the more my eyes wander. This one friend just came out, and is exploring his wild side (he's scored 4 times this week with 4 guys) and I'm very jealous. I want that. I want the excitement, the thrill of the hook up. He's busy with his job and hobby a lot.
What to do?
