Divorce Fantasies . . .

Despite the title, Mike and I are very happily married. Somehow, we feel that each of us has managed to find the one other person with just the right mix of understanding, patience, love, and lust that matches the other. Not mirroring, as we are individually very different, but we are certainly quite complementary. And don't get me wrong, we wouldn't trade what we have for anything.

But last night, after we finally managed to get out of the house, away from children, and aging parents, and finally were able to sit down with a drink and just each other, we got to talking. And we were talking about a friend of a friend who is divorced. With all you hear about divorce rates, you'd think we would know more divorced people, but I'm starting to think we all travel in different circles. Maybe the Dad I see picking up his daughter over at the elementary school is one of them. She's a fourth grader, compared to our first grader, and I'm sure it becomes more prevalent as children age. But for now, the friend of a friend is the best I can do.

And as we were talking about this woman, and fretting about how tough her life must be, and how sad it must be that her daughters only see their Dad two weekends a month, we kind of looked at each other and paused. And then Mike says, "so what you're saying is that both the Mom and the Dad have two WHOLE weekends per month all to themselves? No kids?"

That got us thinking. About all the things we could do with so much time. Books to read, movies to watch without interruption. Working out, walking in the park, volunteering at the church. Not to mention all kinds of hotwife fantasies on top of it all. That really got us thinking.

Back in another life, we used to own a three-flat in the city, and we talked about how cool it would be if we had a building like that now, with an apartment that either of us could escape to when we were playing out our divorce fantasies. How neat it would be to alternate "custody" of the kids every weekend, letting the other spouse escape alone to this little place in the city and just pretend for a couple of days that all the obligations of marriage and family were lifted, and we could just be "single" again.

And talking about all that could involve really got us going. So much that we soon cashed out our check at the crappy little suburban chain restaurant so that we could run home and play out all of our hotwife fantasies in our comfy bed, and how we could really have some adventures if I had an apartment that I could bring some of those sexy divorced dads back to for sex.

Let me tell you, with all that hot talk, Mike didn't last very long at all. And neither did I.

Real life responsibilities almost always get in the way of good sex. Unfortunately (for this purpose), children and dependent parents are two responsibilities that are long-term and all-encompassing.

The idea of trading off the home duties so that each spouse can have some unattached fun can work so long as your play partners understand it's just a game . . . which may not always be an accurate assumption.
