Situation?
I'm in about the same situation as AzZNude. Asked her several years ago if she'd like to try a clothing-optional place and got shot down so badly i never asked again. So I find ways to do social nudity things now and then (such as a yoga class that's all male and done nude). Discretion its a must for any swinging as well.
Pretty much in same position as all others. Wife, though a beautiful mature, and lets me take candid nude pics of her, would not even consider. I have tried to raise discreetly but she will not have it or so it seems. Have had some near experiences which I thought might help with convincing, but did not. I have to be very discrete in searching out and doing what i really want to do.
My wife knows I like to be nude, I am most of the time unless it's uncomfortabe (cold weather) or we are keeping my aged mother. She's good with me visiting the nude beach and a nearby resort. Any other activities I keep discrete.

I am nude around her in the house all the time and at times, like during the summer she will be nude with me. We both sleep naked now too. She lets me go to nude resorts by myself but doesn't really know I'm BI, although she suspects me of that
my wife is not a nudist only ever tried it half a dozen times ,she didn't like it she knows I go to nudist beach and dos nt mind but carnt understand why I like it,any thing that happens at beach stays at the beach I also like going on woodland walks naked.
My wife doesnt mind me being nude and was ok with me being nude outdoors on a private beach a few months ago.
While she doesnt see it as a directly sexual thing, she does see it as an intimate personal thing and doesnt want either of us being publicly nude.
I agree it doesnt have to be sexual (though I like it being), dont have to see it as an intimate personal thing and greatly enjoy it in public (resorts/campgrounds). Therefore I must - as several others have said - keep it discreet.
My wife knows I'm nude on beaches and at home when she goes out. I sleep nude and go to bed and get up nude. But she doesn't like me to be nude normally when she is around. However recently we were on holiday and I spent quite a lot of my time nude in the room. Also I sat nude on our balcony, which wasn't overlooked and had sun on it late afternoon. I was quite surprised that she didn't object.
Well, this is a good question. FINALLY, my wife has accepted my nudism. She has before not wanted me to be nude at home. I finally got her to not badger me about it as we have a 6 privacy fence completely surrounding our backyard. She has even called me a nudist..earth shattering revelation for me. She now is good with me naked around the house when ever we are alone. I have spent the entire holiyweekend naked and loving every minute of it. She just asks that I dress for meals. No problem so I can be nude all day, night in and outdoors. Sooooo fn happy now!!!!
8 years ago, while taking care of mom, to give my sister a break, i stole away to go to my first nude beach. (Apolo Beach, canaveral national seashore). It was a bucket list item. Couldn't park at nudist beach (number 5) so somewhat disappointed i went to beach 4. Stripped down to shorts an started walking. About 400 yards i saw two couples, not near each other. I approached the first couple and was a bit surprised they were nude and tanned on every part of their body! (Did hard glance at very tanned genitals. Asked if this beach is also nude. He had been coming to yhis beach for 27 years (before national park designation. No park rangers stopped them in all that time except one who was told to go read the rules. Seems there is no prohibition against nudity at any national park. After talking a bit more i told the next time. Turned, and stripped off my shorts. Something happened like an epiphany, never felt freed and one with nature like it before.
Told my mom and sister i turned nudist at the beach. Got home, told my wife after a week being home that i turned nudist and asked if she was ok with it. Reply i never forget. Said she wasgreat with it cos its the first time i was back to the man she married, 46 years ago. She wasn't interested though. Since then I'm naked 365 days a year, have 2 campers, one in Ohio and one in Florida, and spend 6 months at each.
I have friends with benefits at both resorts. Wife knows I'm bi, and actually told me to explore the other side, so to speak.
I've since told all my textile friends, drs, lawyers and close family that I'm a nudist.
I've been a nudist for 8 years. Honestly think I've developed an allergy to close! And license states Nudist Inside.
