I have several friends who are in open relationships (granted they're not, nor have they ever been married, they are just long term (8+ years) partners) communication is the key thing in keeping these relationships going.
SnArL's point about whether HE will have an issue with YOU having sex with other men is also particularly important.
A couple of my friends ran into this and it destroyed their relationship (and caused a bunch of "collateral damage" too), he was more than happy for her to do what she wanted but when HE started having a "side" relationship with somebody else she broke it off with him (this after 8 years). They haven't spoken in about 3 years now and we (myself and my friends) interact a lot less with them because nobody likes to be the piggy in the middle (he's now had a child with his current partner so that also limits social opportunities).
You should approach this issue VERY carefully and figure out what's best for both of you, if you decide to go down the "Open Marriage" path I'd suggest that discussing it with others who have done it would be your first port of call (there's a lot of "swingers" sites out there, that may be a good place to start, given experience with other err... fringe sites there are probably some really good ones and some really bad ones out there so it may take a few attempts to find one where you feel comfortable) |
