Comperson 

A man or woman who feels compersion, i.e., pleasure associated with one's partner romantic or sexual pleasure with another and is often called the opposite of jealousy. Since these persons know and enjoy their partners' pleasure with others, these partners are technically not Cuckolds or Cuckqueans since infidelities or unfaithfulness are not involved.
The comperson enjoyed his wife telling him about her sex dates.

Compersion 

A feeling of joy when a loved one invests in and takes pleasure from another romantic or sexual relationship.

Commentary: Compersion can be thought of as the opposite of "jealousy;" it is a positive emotional reaction to a loved one's other relationship. The term was coined by the Kerista Commune. It differs from candaulism in that compersion does not specifically refer to joy regarding the sexual activity of one's partner, but refers instead to joy at the relationship with another romantic and/or sexual partner. It is analagous to the feeling of joy a parent feels when their children marry or that best friends feel for each other when they are happy in a romantic relationship.

Love your lover's lover for they too love your lover
