What is an open relationship?

Olin Hallin: my best advice is that you should tell himmm. The worse thing that could happen is that he won't talk to you but. . .if he doesn't like who you are, what you do, or how you feel he wasn't really a true friend. good luck!

Danica Timperman: You get to share each other's STDs but you also welcome other people's as well on occasion.

Arlen Lopiccalo: An open relationship is an excuse to have a place to go when the OTHER half get tossed out because of there openness.A "relationship" is a relationship that is mutually exclusive un-dieing love for one another. Regardless of race,creed and sexual preference.

Elva Batie: open relationships mean that you are open to date have sex with whom ever either party wants. Can be hot if both are into it. Just make sure you practice safe sex and both partners are cool with it.

Arleen Bussing: I am a boy. I am in love with one of my best friends who is also a boy. I am bisexual, so... He sleeps over about every other week now, and just this last time I broke down in front of him because I knew he would probably never love me back the same way as I love him, even though he said "I love you man, and I know it sound gay but, I don't know what I would do if you killed yourself" I just cried more at that, and he hugged me... We are always on the computer and leaning on one another when he sleeps over, and all that stuff, I am almost sure he isn't gay or bi, so should I t! ell him how I feel? Or should I wait longer to tell him, or sh! ould I not tell him at all?...Show more

Jules Ashbach: "I'm with this person but I'm gona go have sex with all these other people and my bf/gf knows about it"Which is seriously stupid I think. Why even be in a relationship??? Relationships are for 2 people!!!!! If you want to sleep around, sleep around, it's your choice. But there is no point in being in a relationship on the side of all of that, why not just have sex with your one partner? Most people may say they don't want just one, well then don't be in a "relationship"...Show more

Hugo Pittari: i think she needs to open up a lil bit more then the first date.. the first date are usually if you feel the vibe or not.. second date get to know him a lil bit more.. what does he like to do.. talk a lil more.. even reach for his or her hand.. is a second step...

Emerita Scia! ndra: Open relationship would mainly be having sex with one partner while dating other people. A real dating relationship would be like marriage without the marriage- being with only one person but not really committed to them 100%. if you have a relationship with only one person then you are willing to only date that one at the time. hope that helps

Clare Hoard: open relationship: you like each other but are not going out. so you can kiss other people have sex with others. and they can't say it is cheating.relationship:you are with the person. kissing and having sex with other people is called cheating now. you two are together. stick to one person....Show more

Alise Rutgers: i think you should just suck it up because all friendships that turned into relationships turned out to be ! horrible for me ....and if you tell him he might not like you like that! back and then it would always be awkward between you 2...

Isaias Badgley: I think she's doing okay so far. I think it's good that she's taking her time to know him first before getting making any moves. She should just be herself and if she's interested she should just keep continuing to go on dates with him to let him know she's interested in him. Since she's conservative, I know it would take her a bit of time before she can feel comfortable kissing him and stuff.

Elden Bardach: My best friend is going on a second date. She really feels like he might be the one. He asked her for the next date during the first date, and a scheduled for the day on the day after their first date. It sounds like he likes her too.But she wants to keep her self interested, or mysterious as possible. She's quite conservative, and was surprised when he felt her hand to warm her up, on the first date. She doesn't even dare to kiss, or even go to his place till she's official with him.! So, what should she look out for, or becareful if she really wants to be steady with this guy? He's successful, good looking, and seriously looking for a wife.They are both 28. Their nationality are different.I wanted to hear what's normal from an Western point of view......Show more

Arleen Bussing: In my mind there is no such thing as an "open relationship", an open relationship is when two people are "dating" but allowed to date/f*ck other people.. But in my opinion if it's not monogamous, you're just SINGLE. Open relationship = you're their "main squeeze".

Rosalyn Olivera: u can still hook up with people

Ermelinda Stalnaker: i like this guy, but i cant like him as hes older than me and he has a girlfriend, he thinks of me as a sister not a girlfriend as we are close, but i want to be more but i dont want to break our friendship. do i tell him i want to be more or just accept that i cant have him, and get over it
