Married couples and strip clubs

by James
(Atwood tn )

I'm 43 years old and have never been to a strip club.  And I think its disrespectful to my wife if I go to one. I know she wouldn't like the idea of me watching another woman take off her clothes, I know that because she told me, but she has been 2 times in the 25 years we have been together and she knows I don't like it. But she tells me I need to just get over it and let it go.


Am I wrong for getting mad and upset and putting distance between us because of her actions?

"You gave us counseling without making either one of us feel that you were taking sides.
You always maintained your impartiality with us. You encouraged Rita to be more assertive in stating what she wanted to get from your counseling sessions, as well as what she wanted to get from the relationship.
You taught both of us better communication between ourselves, which lead to an emotional comfort level between us that didn't exist before.
You took control of the direction of the session if things were not moving along.
Thanks so much
for helping us."
