I've been married for 11 years and together with my wife for 14 years, with two kids. Recently, she dropped a bombshell, revealing she's been sexually dissatisfied for the past seven years.
She presented me with two options: agree to an open marriage or end our marriage. My suggestions to attend couples' therapy were dismissed.
My options are either to allow her to open the marriage or to end it.
This situation is disturbing due to its surprise nature, with little indication from my wife that she was dissatisfied or interested in an open relationship.
