[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having actually read the article, it's just clickbait for the NYT set. The author left an open marriage because she fell for one of the men she was dating and when that relationship didn't work out, she found herself in the middle aged dating pool in NYC where she goes out on dates with openly non-monogamous men. Hardly a representative sample of mainstream dating.

As a woman, the article just made me roll my eyes because the author and her friends seem to be self-selecting for these high drama relationships.[/quote]

Yep.

And the author of the NYT piece also published a much cooed-over 2022 piece in Paris Review in which she talked about how her husband asked for an open marriage (when she was 6 mos post-partum, because the poor dear wasn't getting enough sex!) but it was all fine, because in the end she felt it enhanced the marriage and offered more erotic spice.

Which obviously worked out really well.... since this new piece, three years later, is about her dating life post-divorce.

But honestly lady: if you find it maddening to be with wishy washy eternal child men who can't commit.... why the F are you dating men who self-identify as non-monogamous??[/quote]
