A Sudden Ultimatum in a Marriage
I've been married for 11 years and together with my wife for 14 years, with two kids. Recently, she revealed that she's been sexually dissatisfied for the past seven years, giving me an ultimatum: agree to an open marriage or end it.
Her announcement left me reeling, and my suggestions to attend couples' therapy have been dismissed. The situation is disturbing due to its surprise, with little indication of her dissatisfaction or interest in an open relationship beforehand.
She suddenly said she has been sexually dissatisfied for the past seven years—and my options are either to allow her to open the marriage or to end it.
This unexpected turn of events raises questions about the state of our marriage and the lack of prior conversation about her desires.
