Why I Cheated: My Wife Used Sex As A Bait To Get Me To Do Household Chores, Meet All Her Expenses

Send Push

Whoever said that women are mysterious beings who are difficult to understand was 100% right. To date, I always get amused to see my wife behave in an erratic, whimsical manner. I love her deeply and I don't think my love for her is going to ever die completely. This is what happens I guess when you fall in love. Despite the problems you face in the relationship, you still try to manoeuvre through all of them for the sake of love and respect for your partner.My wife has always had an upper hand on me and I was pretty much okay with it. However, things really started to bother and hurt me when she started using sex and physical intimacy as bait. I mean we all like to feel close to our partner and we certainly don't want to make it transactional in any way. But she did it. She would always tell me things like ‘Baby, you first help me with dishes and then we will head to bed’, 'If you don't buy me this, I will stop sleeping in the same room as you' or ‘Let’s quickly wrap up cleaning kids’ playroom and then we will make love’. When I would insist on enjoying intimacy in the moment, she would always refrain from it and always ask me to help with some or the other household chore. I was really getting tired of it. Then one fine day I told her how I was feeling hurt about the whole thing. In response, she very nonchalantly mentioned to me that either I agree with her on things or I could forget about our lovey dovey time spent in each other’s embrace. I was mortified, shocked, appalled and certainly didn't see it coming.That day I realised how shallow she was and what little importance she accorded to intimacy between us. From then on, I never initiated anything in bed and she never did it too. I seeked companionship and to meet my physical needs, I decided to look elsewhere. After a few months of being on the app, I found someone who was just right for me. Even though we’re not emotionally 100% in sync with each other, we still are able to enjoy a good time with each other.More than physical intimacy I have always sought emotional intimacy with my partner. However, my relationship with my wife has created a void that will probably never be filled. I pity her for using sex as bait to get me to do things. I just hope one day she realises what she has lost by doing this. With regards to me cheating on my wife, I don't really feel sorry after what she has done to me.
