Experimenting in Relationship? How to start convo

Just letting you know, this person posting was my partner. Emphasis on was. I tried to keep an open mind and said we could explore together, but only during the holidays because I was busy with a heavy studyload and taking care of her kids. This wasn't enough, apparently, as she told me she wasn't sexually attracted to me and that she was flirting with somebody from University. She told me this on the drive home after I took her youngest daughter to swimming lessons, by the way.

She didn't want to experiment together. She wanted to fuck other men while I stayed home and cooked meals, cleaned the house and took care of her kids. She didn't love or respect me at all but she told me she did because she liked that I helped her with literally everything around the house. There were a lot of other issues but this was the straw that broke the camel's back and I broke up with her.
