I'll just agree to disagree with her.... I am not sure on how you focus on pleasing your partner with someone else in mind.

Maybe I am in the minority.

Well I think it's two completely different questions. How many have EVER done it is really high. How many do it regularly is much lower. Even when you say "with your current partner", that could mean that you have fantasized about someone else 5 times in 7 years.

And even with that there could be extenuating circumstances.

I'm going to guess that it's mostly men who do this.

I would imagine those in failing relationships do this. If your thinking of someone else during sex, it's time to move on.

That's how females think. Males stay and just fantasize about someone else.

I'm not too egotistical to think that on occasion my wife has given into my advances when she wasn't in the mood, and then spiced things up by imagining I'm Orlando Bloom or something. Some people like to role play in their relationships as a way to keep the sex saucy.

It's absurd to think that if you think of someone else the relationship is over. So if a couple watches porn together I guess the relationship is over. For that matter if the guy watches porn the relationship is over. Really?? Then there are a ton of relationships that should be over.

Orlando Bloom is hot. Your wife has good taste.

I'll take that as a compliment.

It's not just a male thing. Females also have sexual fantasies that aren't about their spouses. Anyone who denies this is completely full of crap. They may not want it to be true (because they have the mistaken idea that it somehow makes them a bad spouse), to the extent that they may even deny it to themselves on some level, but it's true. This is part of being human.
