narcissistic fixation
Posted: 04-19-08 15:11pm

My fantasy has always involved my wife, and it is so weird and specific, that it almost seems more difficult to explain than some kinky raunchy bondage fetish. I have gently and playfully suggested it to her on many occassions, but it is so odd, she laughed it off. But i feel i have an addiction disorder. We have been happily married 20 years, and she is amazing to me in every way, and a wonderul mother to my 2 sons. This fetish does not interfere with our sex life, which i consider wonderful (i think she does too). So, here it is; I get off on imaginging her worshipping me, licking certain body parts (no not my genitals). I sometimes look at body shots of myself, or sometimes look at pictures of other guys on the internet (non porn), imagining they are me. The mental image that i imagine is of her being the aggressor in this situation. I also sometimes take articles of her laundry so i can smell her while i do my thing. Looking into this weird fetish on the internet has frequently led me to gay websites, and i feared that perhaps i was a latent homo. I have ruled that out. The thought of a dude in bed is nasty (for me). This is a bizarre narcissistic fixation, and i think i need professional help to address it. Any suggestions?
I told her about this in greater detail last week, thinking that getting it out in the open would be healthy. WRONG! She has been despondent. She thinks I am a freak. I should have kept my mouth shut. In hindsight, by telling her this, i suppose i was trying to ease my conscience.

I don't really see anything wrong with it, so long as it doesn't affect your sex life or your daily life outside of sex.

Fetishes are meant to be fun, and they're there to make sex more exciting. Unfortunately if she's not into it, you're out of luck... but don't think you're crazy or anything... as long as it doesn't consume you, you're fine.

Good Points Marvel,

There is nothing wrong with most fetishes. It is a matter of how extreme your fetish is and the impact it has on your daily life.

Hope the original poster has the best of luck. Remember though, communication is the key. Don't try tricking your partner though. It is something that has to be approached as an adult conversation, something you would like to try. Describe to your partner how you imagine it, what about it is a turn on, how it makes you feel...

If that fails... well... then best of luck...

thanks for the feedback.
but what about the part about my sometimes using pics of other dudes, pretending they are me, and then getting off imagining my wife being orally aggressive on them? doesnt sound gay to you? or just a narcissistic fetish? it has no impact on my life whatsoever. it is a behind-closed-doors fantasy that is gratified, then i move on with my day. It has never involved a third person

You are not engaged in a fantasy that involves the men doing something to you, so I would not qualify this as a homosexual fantasy. You are having a fantasy regarding someone that you consider to be good looking (yeah men can say men are good looking without being gay). Your fantasy seems to be geared towards watching your wife go down on a stranger. Perhaps not even a stranger but someone that you feel has qualities that you admire in the male physique.


Is this Narcisistic? Only you can answer that... based on what you have said, I would say it is on some levels... but I would not consider it a problem. You are choosing men that have something that you think of as attractive. You are pretending to be them... true narcissistic people would think that these men pretend to be them.... Smile

sounds like a perfectly healthy fantasy to me. perhaps you should write about them... analyze them... you are on the right path, you are not burying your fantasy, nor are you recklessly engaging... you want to understand. That is the first step in deciding where fantasy and reality come together.

It sounds totally normal to me, in fact, I can't imagine that that wouldn't turn most people on! And no, even if you were looking at pics of other guys and imagining them in bed with you (which you aren't) wouldn't make you gay. You're just fine.

The only real problem here is that your wife doesn't feel the same way. I'm not quite sure what she's opposed to, maybe find out what freaks her out about it, and focus on something else? Make sure she knows that you want her to be comfortable.
