Nothing you haven't heard/read before with the exception the husband gets the better end of the deal. If you still need a reason to avoid marriage and women this is just one more to add to the pile.

In early September, i suggested open marriage to spice up our relationship. I told him that i wanted to have fun and suggested him to do the same. I told him that our 20s and 30s went by just looking upon kids and now we should enjoy ourselves. He was completely against it. He said that marriage is not a joke and is special bond between two. At that time, i was having different mindset and told him how he had to change with new lifestyle and how old fashioned he is. He was still against it. So i started manipulating him and threatened to divorce. He finally agreed to open our relationship.

i started realising that most men never took care of my needs and pleasure. My husband was the only one who took care of my needs. The idea of sleeping with other men was short lived and i stopped it...

In mid november, i suggested to once again close our marriage and be monogamous. He was adamant that he would not do it...

This morning, he said that he cannot live like this. He wanted some space from me and that he would be moving out for some days to clear his mind. I agreed to it because i had no other option.

I have realised how much he loved me unconditionally and i don’t want to throw away our 20 years together. Any advice on how to make him change his decision.

A manipulator to the end.
