I am against them.

Open relationships are not for me. While I can be a bit more...progressive thinking...in this area, it still rankles if my partner wants someone else, even if for a short interlude. No, I want exclusive. If another couple can manage truly open, then all the better for them.

They sound good in theory, but there are very few people who are truly not jealous.

Are you crazy?

Absolutely not!

not for me!

most relationships it won't work but I do believe that it can/could work in certain cases.

Open relation ships I think open the door for negative feelings. Such as jealousy and lead you to start questioning your partners trust. Open in the sense of one couple being with another couple or incorporating someone else at the same time is a different story.

I think that both parties would have to be open to do this but i am not one of them.

I could never, I would feel hurt and be too nervous to actually be with someone else while dating my boy friend

They don't typically work, one person always ends up getting hurt. But there are different kinds of open relationships, i.e. threesomes, and sometimes that works.

I've seen open relationships fail so many times...
I think they're a terrible idea

It might work for other people, and no one can judge another's relationship without being in it, but the answer to this question can only be answered by both people in the relationship, no one else. Whatever works for them works. In my current relationship though, I could never imagine sharing her with anyone else ever, I want her all to myself.

They really don't work all, that well I found out.
