No way. I can't imagine wanting this. If I choose to be in a relationship it's because I want one person and one person alone.
Completely against it, I don't share well and if cheating or not being able to be monogamous is not an option, then I would rather be alone....
I don't believe an open relationship would work, because I like to be aware of what is going on. I like to feel apart of my wife. What's the point of it?
I don't the two words fit together... you're either committed or not.
Open to it when it's not serious and clearly laid out that way.
It can work for some people. But it won't work if you are with someone you want to have a serious commitment with.
Not a long term strategy. I've never seen it work out. And I've seen a lot of people try.
Not for me; maybe could work for some people, but it seems like it would just be a lot of drama.
Not an option. At all.
Seems like a farce for people to pretend to be in a relationship.
I think that it is the death of a true "relationship" If its casual then that's one thing. Eventually resentment and jealousy will come to bare. It kills the soul. Don't recommend
Glad to hear it... I want you to be able to find that one woman is "enough" and not want another. No matter what the trials in life bring. Turning to another is simply not an option.

No. It causes too much complexity/ambiguity/confusion to something that is already complex and requires a lot of work. You're essentially thinking what the other is doing all the time.
I think that marriage is a discipline you enter into for improvement of yourself and the world. I don't take fidelity lightly. I tried the open thing and it destroyed the relationship.
Isn't the point of a relationship commitment to the person you love? How can you be committed if it's okay for you to see other people or share any kind of intimacy that you have in your "committed" relationship.? I'll pass, thanks.
