Finding a bull you can trust, safely

Agree what you want before you look

Finding a bull is easier, and safer, once the two of you know exactly what you are looking for.

Settle these between yourselves first:

• One meeting or an ongoing arrangement? A one-off is a very different thing from a regular bull.
• Where? At home, in a hotel, or at his place, and whether the husband is in the room.
• Condoms. Always, never or decided case by case. Decide it before you meet anyone.
• What is allowed and what is not. Include anything involving the husband, cleanup, anal sex, rough play and names or language.
• How much contact outside meetings. Messaging, phone calls, social media.
• Who has the final say. We would suggest the wife, since it is her body, and that either of you can end any meeting at once.
• Privacy. Photographs, video, and who else is allowed to know.

Our guide to telling your wife what you want covers how to start that conversation. Do not skip this step: the stories below almost all begin with something that was not agreed.

What goes wrong when it is not agreed

The most common problem members describe is not a bad person, but a bull who goes further than the couple intended.

In a discussion on Reddit’s r/CuckoldPsychology, a man asked whether other husbands had sat helplessly while a bull went too far. The replies were mostly examples: bulls who ignored an agreed condom rule, who went further than a limit the wife had set, or who broke a one-time-per-session agreement, and husbands who froze in the moment and said nothing. One added that the bull had shown signs earlier, in the way he talked to the wife before the session began. These are individual accounts, not research, and the thread is one-sided by nature, since it is people describing things that went wrong. They show a pattern worth planning around.

Other threads show different problems. In one, a husband found that his wife and her bull had settled something about his own sex life without telling him, and commenters split between “submit”, “talk” and “that is deception”. In another, a young woman three months into the lifestyle said she was becoming emotionally attached to her bull. Commenters called it common, linked it to the excitement of a new relationship, and advised her to talk openly to her partner.

The lessons are plain. Say the rules out loud to the bull before you meet. Agree what happens if one is broken. And keep telling each other the truth.

Where to look

No place is risk free, so the question is which risks you are prepared to manage.

• Communities built for this. A site or group where everyone knows what the lifestyle is saves a great deal of explaining. CumEatingCucks is one; you can join and build a profile.
• People you already know. Be wary. In a thread about a husband who regretted sharing his fantasy, one commenter warned against co-workers, friends and family as bulls, because it is too personal and someone is likely to get hurt. That is one person’s opinion, not data, but it is worth weighing.
• General dating and social sites. You will meet more people, and more people who do not know what you mean. The US Federal Trade Commission says scams happen on dating sites, apps and social networks, so the checks below matter wherever you look.

Checking someone out before you meet

Take your time. A good bull is happy to be checked, and one who pushes you to hurry is telling you something.

1. Talk for a while first, with both of you reading the messages. Notice how he treats her limits.
2. Run his photos through a reverse image search. The FTC suggests this: if the picture turns up under other names, or in places that do not match his story, something is wrong.
3. Have a video call before any meeting. This is practical advice, not an FTC rule, but a man who will not show his face is hard to trust.
4. Ask how he approaches rules. A good answer is specific. In one thread a man who describes himself as a bull said he states his intentions at the first contact and gives the couple a chance to set limits, and that he will not push if those limits are firm. That is the kind of answer to look for.
5. Ask about experience, and whether other couples would speak for him.
6. Never send money. The FTC says never to send money or gifts to someone you have not met in person. A bull who asks for travel money, a deposit or a gift card is not a bull.

The FTC lists other warning signs: someone who moves you quickly from the site to private messaging, declares strong feelings very fast, says he lives or works abroad, or says he cannot meet. If any of those fit, stop.

Health: ask, and agree a routine

Nobody can promise they are clear of infection, so agree a routine and keep to it.

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advises asking a healthcare provider to test you regularly for STDs and HIV and talking with partners about STIs, and says to use a barrier every time you have oral sex. Many infections have no symptoms, so “I feel fine” tells you nothing. The NHS advises waiting seven weeks after unprotected sex before testing if you have no symptoms, because infections can take that long to show, so ask for a dated result and ask whether he has had new partners since. Our guide to a first cleanup covers the oral-contact risks in more detail.

Condoms deserve their own agreement. The author of a widely shared essay on the same forum argues that going without one changes a dynamic in ways that are hard to undo, and commenters on that thread and the one above describe condom rules that were dropped or broken, some by agreement and some not. That is why we suggest deciding in advance, treating it as a hard rule if you want one, and ending the arrangement if it is broken without your consent.

The first meeting

Keep the first meeting short, public and low pressure. These are practical suggestions, not research findings.

• Meet for a drink or coffee first, in a public place, with both of you there. Nothing has to happen that day.
• Tell a friend where you are and when you expect to be home.
• Arrange your own transport so that either of you can leave without waiting for anyone.
• Stay sober enough to make good decisions, and agree a stop word that all three of you will respect.
• Trust the wife’s instinct. If she is uneasy, that is the answer, however good the profile looked.
• Do not go to a private room until you have all met in public and are happy.

Afterwards, and over time

Check in with each other after every meeting, and again after the first few.

Ask what felt good, what did not, and whether any rule was bent. Talk about how each of you feels about the bull, including if the wife is growing attached, which the thread above suggests is common, and which is much easier to deal with when mentioned early. If a rule has been broken, you do not have to decide on the spot, but you do have to say so.

Red flags that mean stop:

• He ignores or argues with a limit.
• He pushes you to meet quickly or alone, or to skip the checks.
• He asks for money, gifts or private photographs.
• He tries to cut the husband out, or to keep things secret from one of you.
• He becomes angry or sulky when told no.
• He will not share a recent test result when you have agreed to.
