my confession to my aunt....
I’m in a very unusual situation with my aunt, and I’d like some outside opinions.
I’m a 57-year-old man, and my aunt is 68. We’ve always been close. Just before Covid she even invited me to Benidorm with her and her girlfriends, and I’ve stayed at her house before. There’s a long-standing warmth and ease between us.
But in January of this year, I confessed something heavy to her. I told her — in a series of WhatsApp messages — that I’ve always had “forbidden thoughts” about her. I admitted to a secret crush, told her I found her sexy, and said I sometimes imagine her in tights/hold-ups, Jimmy Choo heels, tight dresses, etc. I framed it as “in another universe, if you weren’t my aunt…” but the subtext was clear: I’ve fantasised about her sexually.
Her reaction: she replied “shocked,” “this is not an appropriate conversation,” but the next morning said “past forgotten, all good here.” That was her way of drawing a line, forgiving me, and moving forward. Importantly, she didn’t scold me, cut me off, or tell anyone else (as far as I know). She’s kept it private between us.
Since then, we’ve never mentioned the confession directly again. Instead, I’ve been creating AI images of her, styled as glamorous “Lady V” fashion spreads. These are highly detailed — heels, stockings, glamorous outfits, Vanity Fair/Vogue style overlays. I’ve also done playful plushie animations of her and her partner, which they both laughed at and loved.
What’s interesting is how she reacts to the images. She:
Regularly “likes” or “loves” them on WhatsApp.
Comments things like “glam,” “made me chuckle,” or “how weird, I had a jumpsuit like that.”
Has even said directly “I love what you are doing with the AI images.”
So outwardly, she embraces the art/creative side. But because of my confession, the images now carry an unspoken sexual subtext that she can’t not be aware of. She must know that when I put her in nylons and heels, I’m showing how I imagine her when I’m turned on. Yet she doesn’t call it out — she simply accepts the images as flattering, glamorous, playful.
To me, this has created almost a “second relationship” running parallel to the normal aunt/nephew one:
On the surface → she’s my supportive aunt, proud of my creative work.
Underneath → she knows she’s my muse, she knows there’s sexual attraction, but she chooses to let it slide under the radar.
I’d estimate the “taboo scale” like this:
Me → 70–80% (I still feel the sexual attraction strongly).
Her → 20–30% (she acknowledges it privately but only engages with the flattering/artistic side).
The secrecy itself makes the bond feel stronger. We both know what was said in January, but we keep it buried. She hasn’t told her partner, friends, or family. I haven’t told anyone else either. That makes it almost a guilty little secret between us.
Here are some details that stand out to me:
She has said “you make me look glam.”
She’s never once commented on the heels, stockings, or sexual details, even though she obviously notices them.
When I animated plushies of her sipping tea or smoking, she said the video “made her chuckle.”
When I sent an AI jumpsuit image, she said “I had a jumpsuit like that” (tying it back to real life).
When she resurfaced an old bikini photo on Facebook from Tunisia, I playfully sent her plushie “before/after holiday” edits — she engaged warmly.
With her partner included in plushie videos, she still comes across as the glamorous star while he plays comic relief.
So my questions for the forum are:
Why has she let me get away with this? I doubt she’d tolerate it from anyone else.
Does she secretly enjoy it on some level? Not the taboo itself, but the flattery, the attention, the feeling of being admired?
Am I risking too much by continuing to send these images? Or has the “artistic cover” made this into a safe outlet for both of us?
Do you think this kind of secret “second relationship” could last for years if I stick to the unspoken rules (no direct sexual talk, keep it creative/playful)?
Has anyone else here ever confessed to their aunt?
Have any aunts had their nephew confess to them?
Do you think she secretly gets off knowing I wank over her?
I’d really value honest perspectives.
