Would You Be In An Open Relationship?

[Aphrodite801]

I mean it is starting to seem enticing, you have all these attractive people after you that you can try and you get to be in a relationship with someone you like/love.

Yes I would be in an open relationship

No I would never never be in a open relationship

I have been in an open relationship

I’m in an open relationship right now

[mandyfire98]

I personally prefer it and have been in one in the past.

My view has always been if I'm dating a guy I'm not giving up on women. If I'm dating a woman I'm not doing without a man either. I love both women and men equally and need both in my life.

So any guy I'm with will have to share me with a woman. I'm not saying split their time with me but I'm going to say at least need to share me every once in a while with a woman.

Same goes the other way around. If I'm dating a woman she'll have to share me every once in a while with a guy.

It's just something I won't compromise on. I fully understand if people aren't down with that but I am.

[Anemone978]

I could see it... but not with someone I truly loved.. but I don't think I will ever find a true love so I will just stick out this shitty marriage for the convenience and the kids sake..

[Aphrodite801]

Staying in a marriage with someone you don’t love will never end well. Kids or not.

[Anemone978]

We broke up for a year, I got hurt by someone badly and no one liked me so might as well stay with him.. I have no chance with anyone else.. At least we are friends LOL I probably only got another 20 years at most anyways..

[EricSummer]

No, I would not.

In fact, in 2019 my then wife asked for an open relationship after 18 years of exclusive. I refused, but she went ahead anyway.

Now I'm with a wonderful woman and my ex wife has had several men, though all of them exclusive while it lasted.

In the end nobody had an open relationship, but we all found our ways.

[BobLouis]

Do you have to pay alimony?

[EricSummer]

@BobLouis -Yes, I do, but mainly for our two teenagers who live with her, not a lot for my ex wife. They are almost adults, but education still takes time until they are ready for jobs.

[Billlewis]

I enjoy being in a quasi-open relationship with a woman, but with an important difference -- she has unlimited freedom to date and fuck other guys whenever she wants, while I must remain both celibate and 100% faithful to her throughout the duration of our relationship.

[Aphrodite801]

Do you not like sex? Why would you want to not sleep with your girlfriend

[Billlewis]

Of course I want to sleep with her, and we sleep together most of the time, but not getting any pussy is arguably the single greatest factor in my happiness and fulfillment in general, and I'm still permitted to serve her orally on a fairly frequent basis, but fucking her is out of the question, because I know I'm not worthy even to kiss her feet.

[Aphrodite801]

Then that’s not being celibate…

[KingOfMe1]

Does she peg you?

[DizzyDesii]

I’d just stay single and talk to multiple people rather than be in a so-called relationship and do that. Open and relationship do not belong in the same sentence

[Aphrodite801]

Question, are you that girl who said racism is worse than pedophilia?

[DizzyDesii]

I don’t recall ever saying that. I consider both bad and don’t think I’d even try to compare the two

[ProbablyClueless]

I'm open to the idea. I've been casually dating multiple women for a while, anyway. That's kind of a similar type of thing.

[Aphrodite801]

A while as in?

[ProbablyClueless]

Years.

[Aphrodite801]

…why? Sounds like you were just wasting time not really dating if you’re not taking it serious

[ProbablyClueless]

Hmm... good question... Respect is always at the center of my romantic interactions. I guess up until super recently, I haven't had the life stability or focus to really settle down, so I was treating casual dating as a way to enjoy someone's company while I was taking care of other things in life.

[Flower7]

No, I would never. I just don’t understand the point of one. I feel like someone who wants to date multiple people should just stay single.

[whereismyjohnny]

Nope. It's not for me but to each their own.

[Nikki1989]

I have been in one for over 7 years, and we couldn't be happier.

[bananapeels]

I think swinging is good, but not open relationships.

[KingOfMe1]

what's swinging?

[Anonymous]

In my opinion open relationships are for people who can’t handle commitment or are unwilling to

[Aphrodite801]

That’s the point with the unwilling, and sometimes open relationships become closed so that’s clearly not true

[ShesRad80]

i dont judge but it would def not be for me

[Anonymous]

No I would never never be in a open relationship

[Anonymous]

Yeah I would.

[illtskilt]

lmao nooooooooooooooo
