Are they a good idea? Someone has asked me to be in one, but I don't like the idea. I'm more of a relationship type, he says that he doesn't like them much ... What should I do? Should I try and get him to try for a relationship and see how it goes? Or just forget him?
Please help! :)

I'd like to add, I actually really like this guy and have known him all my time, although we haven't talked in person for years.

Also, the guy says he hardly hooks up with any other girls and I really really doubt he's had sex yet. By the way, I'm only 16, so I son't think he'll be getting any of that from me! :D

I wouldnt really go there, you've said yourself that your into having a relationship, and if your honest with yourself i think you know that if ye were seeing eachother and then he was with other people it would really hurt you. Why put yourself through that???
You deserve to be with somebody who wants to be with nobody but you.
My advice is say no to this suggestion. Good Luck

i think of that open relationships are a huge no'no. An open relationship is the place you could produce different open relationships and your no longer actual commited to that one individual. in case you could cope with being in a relationship like this honest sufficient, yet after a on a similar time as us people create emotions and it may be complicated to enable pass interior the top.

Keep your sanity. Don't go for an "open relationship" if you
really like someone special. "Open" means you're not tied
to any one person and can have sex with anybody you want.
The deep hurt and jealousy will tear you apart, especially if
you get pregnant by another guy or, if your special man gets
some other girl pregnant. It'll kill you--just a bad idea. So,
stay out of and away from open relationships.

Just forget him. An open relationship is really no relationship at all for he can shag anyone he feels like it without any commitment whatsoever. Don't buy into that kind of crap. Who knows what kind of STDs you'll pick up from him. He will NEVER commit. Good enough reasons not to enter into an open relationship, much less experiment with one.

Personally, I love the intimacy of a monogamous relationship. For me, it's more honest and real.You should do what feels comfortable to you. If he doesn't like relationships,then you won't be able to convince him to be part of one. It's admirable that he is being honest with you and upfront about how he feels. Don't play games with him by trying to make him change his mind. He has already been honest with you and you need to be honest with him as well. Personally, I think the two of you have different goals and should probably just remain friends. Neither of you should have to bend on this situation.

forget him. you two have complete opposite ideas about relationships. it'll be really hard to make it work. you'll only end up getting hurt, because he'll be seeing other women as well, which is not your idea of a relationship. i say you find another guy who has the same view as you.

I believe it would be a terrible idea for you to get into an oopen relationship with him. Do you think you are ready to go to bed with him and the next second watch him go to bed with ANOTHER woman? And have no say? keep smiling and continue the routine?
Think of what it would do for your dignity or self-worth?
You must be better than that sweetheart!!! Always remember that!

You obviously don't like the idea much. This guy is probably scared of commitment. This guy is not enough like you for the relationship to work. Look for someone else who's more like you.

The words 'open' and 'relationship' don't go together. What he means is,'I want to screw around with as many girls as possible-and I'm not going to even try and hide it.' Forget about him.
