Open relationships are not wholesome. Their purpose is to maintain the steady supply of sex without darned expectations of exclusivity.
Promiscuity and wholesomeness are mutually exclusive concepts.
the popularity of bad relationships on tik tok videos is to complain not to normalize.
I was with the same woman for 14 years and for three years she had a side guy. I'm okay if my SO wants to have a side piece
Because open relationships aren't truly open they are tolerated.
Well but that's what's happening. Open relationships are pretty common these days, MUCH more so than just 10 years ago. And everyone's talking about them, so there's definitely progress.
A 17 year old describing how relationships should work lol
Very ingrained social expectation of monogamy, and a male instinct towards mate exclusivity.
@Agape93 a male instinct?
Correct. It's a biological trait most men have had for thousands of years.
Why do you think that is?
You tell me
I dont believe it's true, which is why I wanted to hear you out?
What you believe is irrelevant, as would be my ideas on why it is. I'm not a biologist, a sociologist, a psychologist or even a guy. I have 0 idea why.
That's a rather close minded belief. For the record, if I believed either of our opinions were irrelevant - I wouldn't of brought it up. Take care
You as well
" I'm not a biologist, a sociologist, a psychologist or even a guy"
At least you know what gender you are!!! lol
I want to stay single. I don’t like the idea of sharing a person. Besides relationships make me too frustrated.
What is the point of an open relationship? If you are giing to be with more that one person then why be in a relationship at all? That just gives the right to cheat.
Nah. If you want to be a hoe, stay single. Don't use that "open relationship" bullshit to get fucked by multiple guys while using an idiot to pay for everything.
Well, sounds like you're a very exceptional take about "open relationship" that isn't what I described.
This one, I agree with. People should be free to talk about anything in a relationship, because you don't fix things be ignoring and burying them.
Open relationships aren't real relationships. They fail 99% of the time.
Because western societies are too busy normalizing gay and tranny relationships.
So true n i just wish people could see through the benefits of it
Because it's not a relationship nor is there anything wholesome or moral about it.
Change my mind:
FWBs are much better than open relationships.
Because they're disgusting. I don't want someone else fucking my girlfriend.
I’m in an open relationship and it has been the most wholesome and genuine relationship I’ve ever been in
Apparently the idea that one at a time bite is more serious than a hand full bite. I don't know
I'm just going to say don't use the term "open relationship" because it means something very different than you are talking about.
