that your relationship isn't a real one.
i think open relationships are a joke. if you feel the need to date others than you don't give a damn about the person you're with. seriously. once you need to open the relationship up.. then kiss the relationship goodbye. its just cheating with a permission slip.

I'm the jealous type. Not to the point where a woman cant have male friends or even comment on how hot another man is. Beyond that, I dont share and I dont stray. I'm also paranoid about std's. Condoms are not 100% protection. I'm the type who, if I could have it this way, would have my next sexual partner as my permament partner. Quite admirable. Thanks  It has taken time for me to get like this. Time and love lost. I use to be the type who if we were watching the Flintstones, Id say: You want to fu** Barney Rubble, dont you!?! Better late then never though, we all make mistakes, I can vouch for that as much as anyone in this area, even if a virgin. The important thing is you've learned from it and don't wish to be that same person you've been. |

I think really what usually causes this is either being unhappy with the person you're with in some way, or the other person agrees to it just to make the other happy even if they aren't. Not unlike some other sexual things, the person doing it may not want to do certain things, but they do anyway to make the other happy, though it may mean sacrificing some of their own. |

How do Ýou feel about open relationship? My girlfriend and I have been dating for over 6 months now and we have an "open" relationship. By that I mean that we both have permission from the other to date and be intimate with other people. I have met some people that are outraged by such a thing and other think its great. We both use protection and only "play" safe. What do you think? Well, why don't you just break up...it's obvious neither of you are happy with the other if you have to go outside the relationship under the veil of "open relationship". |

He loves her. what can he say?! then she says "i want to try dating girls." he stares at her. he reluctantly agrees and eventually it breaks his heart. there ya go. |

I don't think they work...Not a very practical concept if you are trying to build a real relationship...
It can bring up resentment and jealousies... People are only human and someone always gets hurt in such a relationship... You have to ask yourself what is wrong with yourself or this woman that you can't commit to her and respect her enough not to be with other woman romantically.. Maybe you should go join a polygamy community so you may live out your harem and fantasies... It's your life so maybe you would be happiest in a place like that... No disrespect intended... Just an idea? |

It's funny how love can blind a person sometimes isn't it? |

We are both very sexual people and sometimes our work schedules don't allow us to be intimate with each other for days at a time. So we have other to fill the down time. It sounds like you need to find a hobby and not a person to fill in your down time.  |

 If you want to act like animals and f**k like animals than so be it. But if you want to give value to your humanity, and give value to the bond a man and a woman can have than I suggest keep it within the two of you.  It is this exact "open" mentality that is eating away at the fabric of our society, and allowing hedonistc values to seep in everywhere... YOU ASKED

Geez, a whole few days without sex. The horror!   I consider myself an extremely sexual person. I'd have sex 24/7 if I was in a committed monogamous relationship. But I went more than four years without sex because I wasn't. Does it suck? Abso-fricken-lutely!!!! Big time might I add. Conversations can be casual, sex in my opinion can't. It kinda seems to me like you're both no more than glorified orgasm receptacles if you just dump it in whoever just because the person you supposively love isn't around. JMO  To each their own.

I'm also paranoid about std's. Condoms are not 100% protection. I'm the type who, if I could have it this way, would have my next sexual partner as my permament partner. Beyond STD's, there's also the risk of a pregnancy. If that happens then you got a whole other situation on your hands. good point what happens when this open relationship ends up with his "girlfriend" pregnant and the other women he is seeing all pregnant at the same time? Even worse what about when she becomes pregnant with someone else's kid. Don't say we use protection. only thing that is 100% is either not having sex or complete sterility. Even tubes being tied is not a guarantee. i know of one couple where the female had her tubes tied. Pregnancy still occurred. I have never seen an open relationship end well. Chances are you have become the fallback guy already. She is out searching for something better but keeping you around till she is sure the next relationship will work. |
