People are enjoying this person’s sex problem: their husband turns role play into comedy

Over on Reddit roleplaygonebad has submitted a problem that’s making people laugh – basically that she wants hot sexy cop-y role play and he can’t help but play it for laughs.

Really you have to read it:

My [31F] Husband [33M] of 4 years doesn’t take our roleplaying serious when we have sex! He purposely takes his characters way over the top!

So we’ve been with eachother for 6 years. Our sex life is just as good as when it started, I just wanted to try out some kinkier stuff so I suggested roleplaying. Kevin (husband) was somewhat open to the idea, but also thought it was a bit ridiculous. This is something I’ve always wanted to try, sort of like a fetish. So we got a few costumes, a Cop outfit and a Spy trenchcoat for him, and a nurse and cheerleader outfit for me. All of our roleplaying revolves around one person being in character, and the other interacting with them.

But he takes his roles as a joke! He goes intentionally extreme with the roles. I know he thinks it’s a bit ridiculous, and I know he has more fun when he does this, but I want a real roleplay!

For example, when he dressed up as the Cop, he was supposed to do a stop and frisk, arrest me, etc, but in a sexy way. But instead, he kicks open the door, screams “HANDS UP THIS IS A RAID” and basically tackles me to the bed (this is OKAY it’s NOT ABUSE we have rough dom/sub sex all the time), handcuffs me, literally reads me my Miranda Rights, leaves me there and rummages through the drawers throwing stuff everywhere, pulls out a little baggy of weed and goes apeshit like a cop might. I play a long, try to get him to ‘let me go’ if I can do sexual favours for him. Then we have some rough sex with handcuffs and everything. The actual sex was good but he kept speaking into his fake radio calling for backup, when I was on top he would shout OFFICER DOWN OFFICER DOWN.

With the Spy outfit he would come in and check me for wires and do the whole Pink Panther thing where he says “It is lovely weather we are having” while sneaking to the drapes and then beating the drapes up. I was envisioning a more James Bond-eqsue seduction.

Like, I like the sex, it’s good, but I wanted a more porn-like experience. And it was kinda funny but not what I thought. And I KNOW that he thinks roleplay is ridiculous, and that he is trying to have fun with it but I feel like he doesn’t know what I want. And I don’t hate him for it, he’s a big fuckin goofball in or out of our roles, but I want to have MY experience. How can I tell him this?

Edit: Well this got pretty popular! I appreciate all the advice and that y’all think my husband is funny. He IS funny, which is why I’m not totally cheesed over the situation. I’ll try explaining to him more clearly what I want and then we can try to compromise. I don’t think he’s compensating or nervous, I think he’s just trying to enjoy it the only way he knows how.

tl;dr: Husband doesn’t take roleplay seriously.

Most of the replies are laughing but this one is probably the most sensible reply, “Oh, man. This is gold. OP, this is probably one of the best problems you could have on this sub. I’m picturing him opening the sex drawer everyone has and flinging dildos and various other toys around. Your husband sounds hilarious.He sounds like a good guy, and he’s clearly open to suggestions. Why haven’t you just tried talking to him about it? Maybe he can be silly every other time?”

Also this story has prompted a few others to share their problems. Our favourite is this mermaid one:

This reminds me of when my girlfriend finally agreed to indulge my ultimate roleplay fantasy – lonely fisherman / trapped mermaid. She spent 45 minutes under a net I’d ordered from Amazon singing catchy songs about life under the sea, her dreams of true love, and her wish to have real legs. I finally gave up and rowed my “boat” (cardboard box) back to the living room to watch TV.

I finally had my revenge the next week during our mummy / sexy archaeologist session but I understand feeling put out over your situation, believe me.
