What is your opinions on Open Relationship ?

I had two friends who did that and it actually ruined their marriage and they finally stopped doing it and they are mending their marriage.
 
Byrdie, yes its about sex empowerment, but it seems to be based on ego stroking sex empowerment.....Like it really does seem that people who are into that sort of stuff don't have an emotionally mature grasp on intiminate relationships. Their sexuality is more immature fratboy type, rather then sexuality as a healthy expression of an intiminate relationship. For them, its ALL about "hee hee hee........I'm married but I can STILL fuck anyone!"
 
females do that too....... but i guess males 'could do it more often due to the so called 'more acknowledged' legitimancy because its a man's world...... its shit i dont like it either, either way this stud/sluts shouldnt abuse marriage as marriage isnt 'home base' for more free fucks.....and domination and no I dont mean thr BSDM type i meant actually being 'head of the house' shithead arrogant behaviour.
 
Iam curious...if a married couple engages in 3somes or whatever but as long as they explore these kinds of things, is that called an open relationship or is an open relationship strictly based on married people going off having sex with other people with the permission of their spouses? I am not an expert in this kind of thing so I just wanted to make sure that my understanding of an open relationship is correct or not. Thanks

That's a good question. I'm neither an expert in this too but I'll give this a shot.

IMO, If a married couple has threesomes - I don't really think it is an open relationship because it is a random experiment or a phase, if you call it that way. I think with an open relationship is about being married but yet having a relationship with someone else (whether it includes sex or not). It is about having much more meaningful stance to it and sharing it with someone else other than your spouse and knowingly that either it can go awry or it doesn't. :dunno:

I'd like to see what others think about this as well.

My husband wants us to experiment with a 3some and I told him that I dont want an open relationship and he said that is not considered an open relationship..just to experiment. I guess I am clueless about this kind of thing ..lol! I cant imagine having a relationship with someone else sexually other than my hubby. If that's what defines an open relationship then it is not for me that's for sure. Too much drama, in my opinion.
 
I thought an open relationship is when both partners agree that they can have sex and/or a relationship with someone else/other people.

That was my understanding of what an open relationship is...I might be wrong.

Now that I think about it, u could be right. I guess I had it wrong.

Based on what you said of your husband's stance - I'd also think open relationship is about getting in the grind with other people but at the same time when it comes to 3somes, there are some confusion to it because some says it's an experiment/phase while others says it is an open relationship.

To my definition, an open relationship is where you are mutually involved with someone else other than the spouse at the same time.

But yeah, open relationship is about coming to an agreement between both partners for getting involved with others.

Even my ex hubby asked me to try a 3some with him too. What's up with men and 3somes? LOL!

Let me guess - ego? The idea of two beautiful women fawning all over him? :hmm:

It seems like men eagerly accept two women kissing or whatnot with each other but not two men...............everytime a man of mine suggest a threesome, I simply respond excitedly :

Yes! *pumping fists* Lets do it with you and Bob! I think Bob is gorgeous and wouldnt mind doing it to him and you! Let me see you guys kiss each other! :naughty:

Of course my man would go Ummm Never Mind! *rolling eyes*

It works! :giggle:

Beats me. As far as I know, some men have the overwhelming fantasy of having 3somes. It's one of their undying wish. LOL
 
My ex did, too. Geez. I told him, "Oh! I'll give you three some of this!" and showed him my fist. ;)

threesomes = random sexual idea/phase

open relationships = more like a permanant function for the time being in a relationship.

Hey shel, is it gonna be an one time thing? I would probably call it adding some spice to the bed or a common form of swinging?
Open relationship means the couple separately see other people on a consistent basis. Dont know if it applies to one time thing. I could be wrong, and I dont know a lot about open relationships.

I don't think so.

I have meet many lesbians that have open relationships. They have shared with me that they are emotionally connected with the one they have intimate relations with. The open relationship part is purely based on sex as it is a recreational outlet/past time.

For a man--it's all physical instead of emotion.

Remember it's part of the differences between a man and a woman.

Question for you: would you rather have your mate inform you that they been cheating on you with multiple people or come to you and ask you permission for an open relationship?

It's about honesty too.....

Here's a trick......

Tell them that you will do it on your terms.

Put in a bi-sexual porn on the DVD/VCR.

Then bring out the dildo to use on them to see if they like it...... :giggle:

( And make it a BIG one! :giggle: )

If I say only one time and my hubby likes it so much and wants more? LOL! Like I said before I am too chicken so that tells me that I wouldnt be comfortable with it.
