Seems logical,is it practical?What I mean is,what's the end game with an open relationship? Well I guess those in it can tell us. Sec I call Will. Ok, he thinks it's very practical for him and Jada after all, they both willingly agreed to is so there's no bickering and stuff. Does a person in an open relationship commit less adultery/cheating than the mpango wa kando one? Is it the name which defines whether it is acceptable or is it the very act practiced under both. An adulterer has no moral right to cast a stone at a person in an open relationship. eg.Swingers in my opinion practice open relationships and from a recent article I read in our dailies they exist in Kenya.

Emotionally I totally agree with you because the only thing I see afterwards is emotional damage. @essyk - If you are married you commit adultery even though you're in an open relationship. I think swinging is different from an open relationship. Now how are swingers different from open relationship? Uncertainty is certain.Let go

Now I have had to google swingers to properly understand it. Quote:Swinging or (rarely) partner swapping is a non-monogamous behavior, in which singles or partners in a committed relationship engage in sexual activities with others as a recreational or social activity Quote:An open relationship is an interpersonal relationship in which the parties want to be together but agree to a form of a non-monogamous relationship.[1] This means that they agree that a romantic or intimate relationship with another person is accepted, permitted, or tolerated. Bottom line in the Bolded. "The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good.

This Polyamory thing might have it's advantages and seems fashionable but it also has it's drawbacks. In my opinion such relationships won't work..... Quote:Ground rules are essential before starting a poly relationship. You have to figure out what the rules are, otherwise so much could be hurtful. But it's next to impossible to lay ground rules and it's like laying ground rules for an earthquake.

I wouldn't say that things are getting worse. In fact I think they are getting better. Open relationships are not so much about multiple partners, but is about being allowed to be free. This is something that has been rare in human relationships. What we haven't been doing is to understand this kind of relationship and what it means to us. In the near future even children will be less dependent on parents for money and socialization.

But i think there's still sexual intimacy with multiple partners in this so called open relationships. I am one backward guy and i don't believe having multiple sexual partners, even if it's agreed between two people, would make them free. Those are just my old school thoughts or is it my backwards thoughts?.....

Any connection? poly·am·ory noun \ˌpä-lē-ˈa-mə-rē\
plural poly·am·ories
Definition of POLYAMORY
: the state or practice of having more than one open romantic relationship at a time
— poly·am·or·ist noun
— poly·am·o·rous adjective
Origin of POLYAMORY
polyamorous (from poly- + amorous) + 2-y
First Known Use: 1994
Polyamory (from Greek πολύ [poly], meaning "many" or "several", and Latin amor, "love") is the practice, desire, or acceptance of having more than one intimate relationship at a time with the knowledge and consent of everyone involved. It is distinct from both swinging (which emphasizes sex with others as merely recreational) and polysexuality (which is attraction towards multiple genders and/or sexes)[citation needed].

Soon we will all be thinking hard about what our sexuality means, and how we can use it to live well. These, I think, are the questions we need to answer, lest we lose generations in the wilderness.
