[quote=Anonymous]"+1, I know several people in this exact marriage who are doing well. Their marriages are about the kids, companionship, shared financial goals, maybe some shared hobbies. Even when one partner would like to be having some sex, it can work, as long as that other stuff is a much higher priority to them. Sure, you could leave the marriage and have a lot more sex. But if it would mean losing your co-parent, best friend, person who knows you better than anyone, and sacrificing your finances... it's not worth it."

I really don't understand how someone could be best friends in a marriage and be ok with their spouse having sex with other women or men. I just can't wrap my head around this. And how do you justify other people having affairs because they need sex but others just putting up with this? It makes no sense. I'm ok with you sleeping with others but not getting a new tennis partner? And why can't you be best friends and not in a marriage? Share finances? Shared hobbies? If you can have an open marriage for sex you can have open or shared anything.[/quote]
