two people when they get together are more often walking into the "negotiating table" with predrawn plans, ideas and expectations of what a "relationship" is...
imagine if you could be free of all conditioning and religiously tied notions and societal opinions of what "should make you happy" and rather you had an honest and open discussion about what "does make you happy"...however that might come to be..in this modern day, I believe that the integrity and honesty of another person's word is the most sacred trust of all and yet it is the most abused right along with the genitals not far behind...I do not have an open relationship and I feel that because of the things that are attached in society to relationships, people thinking that they can just walk freely into something like that are often "hurt" because of the model of attachment that they were taught or shown by their parents and there is a selfish (and justifiably so) for them to want something out of a union of two people that has that feeling of "exclusively mine"...the real problem is that co-dependency is taught early on to children and as adults, it is the pattern most followed...though no one would rightly fess up to it..they would instead hold out a lie to thing it somehow will hold onto their otherwise romantically intended...
I would have an open relationship and a written agreement that was sat down and drafted by both people or three people, how ever many might be in a group...and take a great deal of time to think it through in terms of "what I need and want" and "what you need and want"...not trying to make the two match, but to see what it is going to take to bring fulfillment equally to both parties in a working agreement...

I dont really mind the idea of an open relationship. But honestly, they wouldnt be able to last. One of the guys is going to get jealous (or girls) and make the other choose.

open relationships... although ideal to some ppl are actually hard on a relationship unless the right mindset it had.

Such a relationship may work for other people but not for me! I want one on one only!

well, whoever wants to be in an open relationship is not afraid of losing you after getting what you are willing to give him/her at this moment in time.
it's not the fear of commitment, it's not wanting to commit to YOU.

Ive had a couple. the secret is knowing that this is temporary and that both of you are being honest with each other.
