Depends on the state you live in and what the circumstances are. My wife goes to hand and stone. Sometimes I don't know she went. She had me go with her once and it was the worst massage I've ever had. I can easily tell her I'm trying it again and go to an AMP and easily get away with it. The reason I don't is she kind of knows I have an Asian thing.
If you have to hide it you don't belong in this "hobbie" (I hate this term) Not a game to be taken lightly for sure.

Oh my, another one of "Those". Just tell me, who the fuck do you think you are talking to? Yes ok, all of us tell exactly what we do. Get the hell out. YOU my friend are the one that doesn't belong here. I hate the terms Monger and Hobie also. WTF! You think all of us just go around advertising it to our wives or SO's??!!?? Seems you can take it lightly as you want with your don't hide it approach. Give me a fuckin break....

Yes, I'm tired of the BS posts on here..... so what.

In regards to the wife do any of u guys think ur wife might know but r ok with it?
I think that she might suspect that I am up to something. She is not stupid and I know that I have unintentionally left clues. In the words of a childhood hero, "what, me worry".

The word is complacency my friend. It will all come to bite us in the ass. Trust me I know all too well.
I am fully expecting it to bite me in the ass some day. What drives me is the lack of any serious me time since I got married. I worked almost constantly (job or home) for so long that my wife came to expect it. Since I have retired I have only done two major things for myself. Buying my truck and the hobby. I still kick myself every day for not having some balance in my life. That has resulted in a certain amount of complacency. To put it more simply, I am currently having a problem with giving a f**k.

So look, I have been married for a long time. Right or wrong, I've been doing this hobby for a long time also. I can't see any reason why you would tell your wife as you're just asking for trouble. There are enough amps around where it's fairly easy to be discrete about it, I typically will not go to one that is close to my house and also where I could be seen walking in. I get my itch scratched, then go on with life - that simple. So far this hasn't caused any interference, not to say that it can't but it has not to date.

I once had the "take care of home or I'm going elsewhere". She said go ahead. It's been 20 years. She might suspect, or even have "woman's intuition". I keep things discreet. If she divorces me, she might get half, but she won't get me! She gets it.

Sounds like she already gave you tacit approval?
If she ever asks, what will you say?

What will any of you say if asked? Lie? Which is better?

IF you are still sexual with wife it should take some edge off and make that sex better in some ways. If you are a germaphobe and constantly worried about catching things either make all your activities safe with providers or don't hobby. Bad enough you are worried about catching something yourself do need to be worried about passing it to wife. For those no longer having sex with wife the hobby is great and allows you to explore other women without really jeopardizing home situation too much. Here limit risk and only see confirmed providers and avoid taking legal risks.

Well I am in the semi honest camp. Told SO during dating that I enjoy getting a massage now and then. She at first didn’t believe me, but said I bet it is very therapeutic and fun as well. So I told her about a few experiences, when I first stumbled onto erotic massage and how often I get them. To my surprise she said well I certainly don’t see anything wrong with it and would have no problem if you wanted to continue. Maybe you could even show me some of their techniques? Then blurted out Wouldn’t it be fun if I could come and watch and maybe help even? To which I responded how about I get the girl to massage you and I help? That was over 10 years ago and for me it seemed honesty was the best choice. YMMV

I neither consider myself a hobbyist or a monger, I do however consider myself a Hunter. Hunting for those hidden Asian gems, just saying.

Feelings will get hurt, no matter what wife/SO says or approve of. If you ever split up, you can certainly expect this little topic to come up again.

I told my wife that I needed to go get a massage, and she got me a gift card to Massage Envy. So I jokingly said, those places just got busted for inappropriate touching, and she was like... If they offer, have fun, I know I would.

This completely threw me for a loop. But even still, I don't think I would ever tell anyone I know about this stuff. Hell, I don't even want to see another monger when I walk in/out of a place.

You might say that I'm keeping secrets, but hey... I don't ask about her new clothes/shoes and she doesn't ask when I get home an hour later than usual every now and then.

Even if you keep it a secret from your SO, if you’re not having sex at home, she’s gonna realize that you must be getting it somewhere. So if she doesn’t bring it up, she’s either in denial or doesn’t care

You need to start a new thread entitled " My wife doesn't mind me going to AMPs and even wants to join in. This is my ongoing adventure in my perfect life with a perfect wife!"

Ha.. We had 3-kids in a matter of 6-years. And she was never into sex while she was pregnant. Then followed by about a year of being too tired, or over-worked to care about t sex. I'm not a big fan of getting rejected for sex, so I usually just wait for her to initiate,, and she knows that. Not that I'm an ahole, I just don't like making her feel pressured, because if it were up to me I'd want it every day.

That being said, she went almost 6-months without initiating anything. So after 6-years of being a good husband and jerkin the one-eyed monster in the dead of night. I said fuck it, and ventured over to an AMP a buddy told me about.

I've been getting done ng this for about 5-years now, and in this time my Wife and I have bumped uglies maybe 6-10 times.

She doesn't suspect me of doing this stuff. I'm pretty sure her hormones are just outta whack, and assumes I just jack off all the time.
