Hi RPW,

Whats RP view on having a "one time" (maybe its naive) threesome in a LTR (married 10 years)?

tl;dr, 10 year anniversary is coming up, I always end up giving bad presents, have been thinking about a threesome as a gift to mark the special occasion and everything he has done, but am worried of the risk factor.

A bit about our situation; we have been married for almost 10 years and were in a relationship for 2 years prior (1 year engagement). We are 34(f)/37(m), when we met I would say that physically he was a solid 8, maybe an 8.5, and I was around the same (maybe a 9 but don't want to inflate). I would say that now he is around a 7 and i'm close but would be a bit lower as I'm a healthy weight but not as good as I should be. If I extend beyond pure physical then he is a 10 - Its what drew me towards TRP, I am often in awe of him and just want to be the best I can to support him. During our relationship he has started and completed several educations including an MBA, phd, and others, built and sold startups, and though he doesn't like social gatherings, when we are in them he is pure power... everyone in the room wants to hear what he thinks on a topic, he is very assertive in what he says and women flirt with him but he very respectfully expresses his commitment to me. For myself, I don't have that same level of ambition and occupy myself with activities that support us domestically and my own hobbies, when either of us shows curiosity of something the other one is doing we share - otherwise we do our own things, consult on important decisions that impact us both, but I unconditionally trust him to lead even if we see differently on something. We plan on starting our family in the coming year.

My husband is very hard to get gifts for. He is not really materialistic or concerned with 'things' and if there is any thing which he wants he usually just gets it himself. I think almost every gift I've ever gotten him has been a flop. "things" are not important, I have tried things I've made myself and I think he appreciates the effort but I feel like a five year old giving a fathers-day gift, I've tried books but don't really know what he wants (because he just gets it himself if he wants it). But, for our 10-year I want to do something special and not just because its a big event but because he has done so amazing for us. I have indecisively been thinking about planning a threesome with a younger woman. I know our relationship is solid... and 10 years ago we talked about the idea, I said maybe one day but that I didn't think it was a good idea and he has never once brought it up again/hinted/ etc to it - but I KNOW it remains one of his fantasies. I am not against the physical idea of another women but am very hesitant about opening up - even for one time - the idea that he can sleep with a younger 10. I would trust him with this being a one time thing but know that there could always be a big negative impact.

Basically, the one side is to reward him for everything he has done for us and let him live his fantasy, the other side is the worries how it may affect our relationship. Am I being stupid for considering the idea? Is it always a bad idea? is "one-time" being naive?

(Sorry for throwaway account but because of question don't want to use normal one)
