AITAH for not being emotionally invested in my relationship since my wife opened our relationship a year ago?
Emotional Distance and New Connections
It took me almost a month to get used to it, but I ultimately did. I did not bother with dating apps.
I was genuinely not interested in having sex with anyone else, and I also knew the reality of these dating apps for men. However, I did start emotionally distancing myself from my wife; it was probably unintentional.
I no longer initiated dates, date nights, or sex, and she was the only one who initiated anything. The last time I initiated or planned a date was a year ago. I did talk about this with my sister, and I asked her to keep it private.
My sister was shocked and also angry, but I told her to let it go, as it didn’t really bother me too much. However, my sister and I did start hanging out much more often, since she was recently divorced and had free time.
She got me out of the funk I was in, and we started having dinners, going to movies, and going on hikes. I genuinely started enjoying life again, and I was constantly planning new things to do or places to explore with her.
She constantly asked about me divorcing my wife, and she really wanted me to do it. I told her I’d think about it.
