[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would love to have an open marriage with DH. How do you even start talking about that?[/quote]

But you would find a partner in about 25 seconds.  Why do you want an open marriage?  Bringing it up will make him believe he is a failure in bed and on the road to divorce.[/quote]

Variety would be nice after 15 years. [b]I'm not going to ask him, so the very reason you say not to. Too chicken[/b].[/quote]

I would bring it up in a joking manner.  Bet you there are friends of yours in open marriages where you would never even imagine.[/quote]

[b]Maybe I will at some point, but it seems so risky. Once it's out there and he says no, it's always going to be the elephant in the room. Sometimes I think I'm just not normal. I honestly would not care if DH slept with someone else. I don't equate sex with love, it's more like a sports activity to me[/b]. [/quote]

I am a man and feel the same way.  I would be totally cool with DW having sex with someone else (assuming I could as well).  Too bad us like minded folks couldn't have married in the first place.[/quote]

Does anyone know of a movie where this situation is the theme? Maybe I'll suggest we watch it, and we'll see where the conversation goes. For all I know, you're my DH.

Do you ever talk about fantasies with each other?  Seems like a pretty good way to gauge his interest without just asking up front if you can have an open marriage.  Fantasies that involve threesomes or swapping with other couples pretty much imply having sex outside your marriage in a consensual arrangement.[/quote]

We do talk fantasies, but it never involves a threesome or swapping. Maybe I can work that in somehow.
