re: Open relationships

No. I would never share my fiance. Especially since we have one child together and another on the way. I don't want that smurf coming between my family. We're too happy to need to have boyfriends/girlfriends. Yuck.

Quoting Crystal Marie S.:" Okay so it's basically got a bunch of different aspects. Thanks for kind of explaining it."

Basically. I knew a poly couple. They're getting divorced now but not because of that. Lol

My husband and I are swingers but we could never be in a poly relationship. Our time together means too much to us! But we enjoy group sex so it works for us.

I let my boyfriend of a year have other females. I'm sure it's because I didn't care about him. Lol but if I were married helllllllll no

I would guess to have someone who shared in interests that the wife/husband didn't. I wouldn't mind personally, I have sexual needs that aren't met because he just doesn't understand what I want or try for that matter lol, same with frequency. Just as he has sexual desired I refuse to do, so if he had a little "smurf buddy" on the side then it would give him what he wanted lol

If both are ok with it then it is not cheating. Rules are implemented, the married couples had kids and a big rule was nobody was to ever be brought back to their home they shared as a family.

We had that rule too. And while no one has met our kids we have entertained at our house and we do have one couple that will likely meet our kids at some point.

Quoting Robert Downey Jr.:" Cheating (by "definition") is doing intimate things with someone BEHIND your SO's back."

oh i know that i just feel that it feels like cheating personally
