I never understood why people need a different partner to "explore" things... Can't you "explore" things with your own partner?

[robertsmall]

“Staying with another man for days at a time while I’m working long shifts”

How do either of them still consider themselves to be a couple? These people need to break up. That girl is poison.

[nicholaswilson]

If you know that you are with the person you want to marry then why tf do you need to ‘explore’? Sex isn’t as cheap as a piece of candy, it’s something you share with your partner.

[Better_Call_Bulba-Saur]

One of the worst things you can do to a depressed person is to enable them. Love is not about letting someone do whatever they want, it's doing what's good for them even if they'll hate you for it.

[Only]

These people who want open relationships/marriages need to get it into their thick heads that you wanted it open, so quit getting jealous that the other person is either having more fun or it's working out well for them.

Bro got into an open relationship and is talking about red flags 💀

[ishaanagarwal]

Good for him. I'm happy he found the problem and had supportive friends to help him out.

[droganovic]

Right off the bat, why would you do that 😅

[DMaster]

The very second she mentions even the possibility of an open relationship, it's over. Either she already cheated and want to not feel guilty about it masking it as an open relationship or she wants to cheat and she 100% already have someone in her mind.

Doesn't matter if it's been a month or ten years, just leave if you have any self worth.

Loyalty gives them the ick
Cheating gives them the tick

[Eleriol]

Cant imagine many relationships survive after "opening it up". The moment a partner asks for it i would start consider a break up if they demand it i would break up on the spot.

[BeowulfMc]

What's ironic about these open relationship situations is that the person who asks for them is actually often right, there IS more out there to experience, and maybe even better people for you to get together with. It's just it tends to be that the person who didn't want the open relationship gets those things, and the initiator hangs out to dry XD. I personally think it has to do with the person wanting the open relationship has the air of wanting more, while the other is more content/confident and less needy.

[Redorgreenful]

I’ve read enough of these stories and learned from my clinical professor that this kind of thing often shows a deeper underlying issue and they should consult with a couples therapist. Opening up a relationship has the potential of damaging the relationship further.

[JamesSmith-gksz]

Once again, people finding out that sex is sacred, means an enormous amount, and should be shared with one person you’re devoted to.
Treating it as expendable and cheap turns your life into being expendable and cheap.

[skeetskeet]

Honestly feel bad for the girl, it’s very clear she desperately need therapy to unravel a massive fuck-ton of trauma and to see she had a brief moment of lucidity when she said she hates that she was turning into her mother then continues to turn into her mother is genuinely heartbreaking to watch. Happy for OP for what sounds like finding the one

[lemonz]

she wants an open relationship but only for her

[theunexpectedua]

Man, do not open your relationship to other people.. it NEVER ends well.

[TheFiki]

She was definitely taking drugs with that new partner. No way your entire life declines like that just by seeing someone else. The encounters were more than just sexual, she was definitely drugged up.

[herticate]

Very wise man, he is not blinded by love nor nostalgia, level headed and decisive. He did not ignore his needs and did not put her feelings above his needs. This must be the model man.

[MedusssssaChristo]

If you are not monogamous, stop entering relations with people that are. Be single or find someone else who doesn’t have a problem that. To me, open relationships/marriages are a disaster.
