Married Man: My Pregnant Wife's Sister Offered To Sleep With Me
A man's sister-in-law has offered to help him out as he and his pregnant wife navigate their first pregnancy together. What sounds like a kind gesture on her part has actually put the man in a tough situation.
Her offer of help isn't with cleaning up the house or helping out by preparing meals. She's offering to have sex with him if he and his pregnant wife run into any intimacy problems during the pregnancy.
The man took his problem to Reddit for advice. Claiming he would never take his sister-in-law up on the offer, he wants to know if he should tell his wife and potentially ruin her relationship with her sister or ignore it and hope his wife never finds out.
"My wife (24f) and I (24m) have been together for 3 years and married for about six months now. We found out that we’re going to be parents and we are both very excited. We told our families over the weekend and everyone was happy for us," he explains.
"This morning, I got a text from my wife’s sister (21f) saying that she knows that women can get emotionally and physically abusive and can put a stop to intimacy during pregnancy and that she is willing to "help" me out anytime sexually or emotionally during and after the pregnancy."
The married man goes on to explain how he has no interest in anyone but his wife, but isn't sure how to go about telling his wife what her sister offered him. She was her maid of honor at their wedding after all. The two sisters are close.
This Isn't A Spot This Guy Wanted To Find Himself In At All
Ah, the dilemma of being the man between two sisters. It seems like a simple call, but this guy appears to be genuinely having a hard time deciding which way to go here.
"I don’t want my wife to lose that bond and it would destroy her if she found out that her sister was willing to betray her like that," he continues. "At the same time, her sister is a snake and is willing to ruin our marriage and the life of her soon-to-be-nephew/niece for what I’m guessing is a childish crush on me."
He doesn't see a good outcome from all of this and that might just be the fact that he's only 24. He thinks it will rip the sisters apart and possibly the entire family, because their parents would side with his pregnant spouse.
On the other hand, he worries that if he doesn’t tell his wife about her sister's offer soon, she'll lose trust in him. He's missing an obvious third outcome from all of this and, yes there are more, but let's entertain this one.
What if the two sisters, being as close to one another as they are, arranged the whole thing? They first wanted to see how he would react.
When he tells his wife, which is obviously what he should do here, she informs him that they put the whole thing together. Then comes the twist.
The offer is legit, and the wife has given her blessing for the sister to step in during the pregnancy. He worried about the entire situation for no reason.
That's how I see it playing out anyway. In reality, he'll probably be blamed either way. If he tells his wife about the offer or not, it will all somehow be his fault.
Best of luck to him.
