Short Lived

Ha! That whole open relationship thing was short lived. I think it boils down to the fact that Denny is not comfortable with how easy it is for me (being a girl) to get sex. I can see his point. I guess the most we'll open up is couple swapping. I'm fine with that. I feel like it keeps fairness in play and I also get to know who my boy is ( Read more... )

So that's something I'm not too familiar with. Why do you guys do that? What are the benefits, disadvantages, etc. Short and long term. I'm curious to know...

Well the whole open relationship thing obviously has advantages. It also has many disadvantages. I personally took it as an opportunity to grow and be more confident and less jealous of every woman that walks around me. For awhile I was psychotic with Denny, then one day I had an epiphany and realized this boy is coming home to me every night. He wants me to be the mother of his kids, he loves me, it doesn't matter if he wants to have sex with so-and-so over there...I'm the one he's coming home to. How many relationships get ruined over adultery? Why put yourself through all that. If I want to have sex with my someone else I should be able to just ask my husband. The whole idea keeps the relationship alive and exciting. Not just 50+ years of the same guy. Being in an open relationship makes me want to be sexier. Makes me want to put on make-up and wear nice clothes. It gives me that exciting feeling of single life without the loneliness and stupid dating issues. I love Denny and I'd never do anything to hurt him. That's ( ... )
