I am not the OP but have an open relationship. I am very close with my husband, basically we are best friends and share everything with each other. We love each other very much, love our kids and want to spend the rest of our lives together. Sexually, we like the freedom of being able to see other people every now and then. It does not happen very often. For me, I only see other women outside our marriage and he is ok with that.

So you are okay with your husband sleeping with women hotter than you or women he just met off tinder? Why would he need more than you to please him sexually? Have you ever loved him enough to share your body only with him or vice versa?

I am not in an open relationship but this line makes no sense. All men want to sleep with other women, all of them. It has nothing to do with whether your wife is hot or how great she is in bed (although of course that helps). The reason men don't is because they aren't allowed to, but even then at least half of them can't keep that commitment.

Go get yourself some, OP

That can be said for women too who arent in love with their bf or husband enough to stay monogamous. So if a man does want to sleep with every woman and the op doesnt is she just being open to make herself look fun and adventurous so her hubby can have all the women he wants to sleep with?

Are you clean and tested?

Anonymous wrote:Good for you OP! My husband and I have dabbled in the concept of an open marriage, I used Tinder and went on a couple of dates with people who were familiar with polyamory and experienced with open relationships, they introduced me to more resources in the community like poly Facebook groups etc. Being upfront on my Tinder profile started conversations and attracted those types of people, as well as some other nice guys, like divorced dads who needed something a little more low key, and of course a few guys just looking for casual sex, but that's not really my thing.

Were you ever able to meet someone who just knocked your sox off in bed? If so, were you able to maintain a regular thing with them?

We haven't really taken our "open marriage" that far, my husband jokes that we're in an open marriage but only sleep with each other...both of us felt uncomfortable pursuing things online, I'm friends with the guys I went out with, but there wasn't chemistry and we never hooked up. When I got pregnant we put everything like that fully on hold. The closest we came was some dates, flirting and hand holding. I would classify us as "monogamish" and even if we never pursue actual sexual relations outside of our marriage it's added a bit of spice.

We do have 2 couple friends with open marriages, one couple used tinder and both partners had a lot of success maintaining hook-ups (until they got divorced), the other friends we know had great chemistry with another couple they are friends with and are involved with them.

My son gets lots of action on Plenty of Fish.

How long has it been since you've been with someone besides your dh?

Not OP but my best friend is in an open marriage. You'd be surprised by the number of quality guys who have no interest in sleeping with someone who is married, even if it is an open marriage. And my friend believes in full disclosure. Online works the best

How come the high quality ones won't sleep with an open marriage girl? and are you suggesting op look online for low quality guys who would sleep with her?

From what she's found, most of them are able to get single women and have no interest in dealing with any drama that can come from a married woman, even if she says it's open. And no, certainly not low quality guys. Just if you go to certain websites, you'll find a larger population of people who are familiar and ok with that arrangement. Sure, there are good guys elsewhere, but you have to weed through the ones not ok with it. Saves her the time to just go to adult Friend finder or fetlife.
