I have recently realised that I am bisexual and my wife has been very supportive. However, having embraced my bisexuality my desire for anal play and specifically giving and receiving anal sex has gone through the roof.
The thing is my wife is not as sexually confident as I am an she has a much lower sex drive. She was also pressured into trying anal sex with a previous partner and she understandably did not enjoy the experience as a result.
I now find myself stuck between respecting her feelings on the matter and in no way wanting her to feel pressured to try it again and desperately wanting to explore this more.
I know anal sex doesn’t mean bisexual or vice versa but I am in a committed relationship so stepping out to experience anal sex with a man is not something I am looking to do. It’s just that it feels like if her former partner hadn’t pressured her then she’d be more open to the experience with me.
I know it’s horribly selfish of me but it feels unfair that he got to do it when he pressured her and there was no real conversation about it first but when I am willing to have a conversation first and I’m prepared to take it slowly and work up to it with proper preparation so that it happens in a safe and comfortable space I don’t get to because of what he did.
Not sure what I am looking for here… Sympathy? Perspective? Réassurance? It’s all a bit confusing and sometimes it plays on my mind and brings me down.

Hi thatbiguy, Thanks for posting on the forum. You've mentioned that you're beginning to embrace your bisexuality so I'm glad that you're on that path of self-acceptance and becoming more comfortable in your own skin. It can always be difficult when both parties in a relationship have differing expectations when it comes to sex. Sex is something that is incredibly personal and everyone has their own opinions on it. An important aspect of sex is the communication and trust between the partners. It sounds like you've had that idea of having the conversation with your wife already, but it sounds like she's been through a lot and it's understandable that she may be hesitant about having anal sex again. If she would like to talk to someone about what happened to her in the past, we would suggest that she looks at the following website: sexualabusesupport.campaign.gov.uk/#get_confidential_supportHaving the communication is the most important thing and everyone has to be on the same page when it comes to sex. These conversations normally take time and are often a work in progress. By being honest with each other and having a shared understanding, hopefully you can both come to an arrangement that works for both parties. One potential starting point could be suggesting the use of anal toys or light anal foreplay etc if she is open to the idea, and then seeing how it goes from there. I hope that some of the above is helpful and if you want to keep chatting and have more questions then please do keep posting here. Stolz
