Hello,


Just wondering would it be odd if one would desire the following unusual combination of relationships and work:

1. Work for a very wealthy woman as her assistant/analyst/right hand man/ secretary, etc and enjoy working for someone so elegant, brilliant, wealthy, assertive, powerful, dynamic.

2. Be married to a fellow middle class woman who is a true peer and go home to her, living a middle class life with her in a middle class suburbs.

It is a kind of a role reversal of women who enjoy the thrill of working for a wealthy or powerful man (if they find money and power) sexy, but their actual relationship/marriage is to someone who is a true peer.

Note. While being married to 2, I would never have an affair with 1 since I don't believe in cheating.

It is just about enjoying a true peer marriage, but getting to enjoy someone way above you as a boss.

Any thoughts on this arrangement?

Thanks

I see nothing unusual about that at all.

Many people work 'upstairs' and marry 'downstairs'.

I would think that so long as your wife is ok with you having this sort of "enjoyment", it would be fine. I honestly don't think that finding someone who would be ok with you finding your boss "sexy" in any sort of way will be easy, but I'm sure she's out there somewhere.

Because in traditional British aristocratic society, the well-to-do family lived "upstairs" while their servants lived/worked "downstairs."

Your desire seems to be coming from your libido.

Not in the least. I'd have a huge issue with my man intentionally putting himself in that situation, with the express purpose of getting his rocks off.

Totally not my kink.

No, certainly not as the supposed "peer wife," and not as the boss. I would prefer to have someone working for me who respected me as opposed to worshipping me.
