Open relationships ?

first, what is the definition? my understanding 'When two people agree to see other people" this would require (1)Trust (not to catch disease or get pregnant) (2) No-Attachment or Jealousy, when you know or see your partner with someone else (3) Gamble Love - within an open relationship you can grow a connection to a friend you are intimate with, it removes all the stress and expectation of a Loving Relationship and that it'self boosts the chances of you falling in-love with them, which makes >(2)< near impossible.if you two have a mutual understanding it can work. If your the only one wanting it, then your better off being single IMO. Good Luck

The idea of having an open relationship may seem fun, but you also have to be comfortable with your loved one having sexual relationships with other people. And that, I believe would be the hardest part.I know I couldn't do it, so if I felt there was something I wasn't getting out of my relationship, I would probably just talk to my significant other or break it off, if i felt it was that much of a lost cause. That being said, I also know other people have had a great deal of success with them. So I really think it depends solely on the individual.

theyre hard D:

I have just ended an open relationship it can work for a short period but the longer it goes on eventually feeling and bonds become strong

If you're not sure, probably you won't like to be in one. I personally don't like much the idea of an "open relationship", but there's people out there who seem to like it.I seriously think it's just something to give some certainty to the uncertainty of an unstable relationship.

don't do it... i think open relationship is just another way of saying im bored... i think a relationship should be between 2 people.. you cant give yourself to someone 100% if 2 people have to share you..

I am currently in an Open Marriage. My husband and my relationship is completely open sexually. If you would like to discuss the specifics contact me. I am not comfortable posting them in public.
