[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty inappropriate, TBH.

It also sounds like cheating to me if you are having butterflies and getting excited for your date.

I mean, you know this.[/quote]

[b]They can both have butterflies as long they know to then go home and have fun with their respective spouses. [/b]
That works for a LOT of couples. 
It's just that OP expressed it in a rather provoking way. [/quote]

Reads like an attempt to justify testing the waters for a potential affair, and a setup to fall into an emotional affair even if it never gets physical.
And yes, emotional affairs are a real thing. They aren't just a "frisson" of fun to spice up your marital bedroom back home. They can do actual damage. [/quote]

Yeah, well, I've been doing this for years and no harm done. Married 20 years, kids in high school and college. Circle of good friends.

Live a little, people! You only have one life.

Same. A bit younger, been together 15 years with two kids, good marriage with lots of closeness. My husband and I have talked about it and are both super clear that physical cheating is out of bounds and neither of us would do it. We can have whatever crushes we want as long as we are honest and come back home to each other for the physical part. Do I have a neighborhood Dad that I go on long walks with? Yes. It's ok, people.

I am very interested in this approach. Could never do actual open marriage but think DH and I could both benefit from "living a little." I think it could even reinvigorate our marriage a bit. But, ugh, no idea how to bring this up with him without making it sound like I want to cheat. I don't! I do want to flirt a bit.[/quote]
