After years of raising their children and managing the household while her husband, Dave, concentrated on his career, one woman was stunned when he suggested they start seeing other people to make their marriage more exciting. He wanted the freedom to pursue new experiences without giving up the comfort and security of their family life. Rather than argue, she calmly agreed, but insisted that the same rules apply to both of them. Dave enthusiastically accepted, apparently confident that finding new partners would be easy. What he hadn’t considered was that his wife might embrace the opportunity just as readily as he did.<\/p>\n
