Been working for me for over a decade. I love my wife dearly, she's not as sexual as I am, she likes hearing about my encounters with other women, it works for us. It won't work for everyone, and requires a ton of communication and respect. |

I wouldn't like it in that situation, no. If you aren't together and are doing other people but not each other what exactly is your relationship? The only way I think it really works is if you are so hot together it pulls other people in, and if you are both wired to be turned on by hearing about the sex with other people, and have extremely good communication, like to the point it would annoy most people. It can't be to fill a hole (ha ha) in the relationship you have. It can be good if you are both enthusiastic about it for sure. I don't personally know anyone who has successfully used it one sided to manage a libido difference, though the top comment here is a guy saying he does that. |

I'm polyamorous myself, I think it's just important to clearly establish rules about it with the people you are dating. Personally, my only rule is that anyone already in the relationship needs to agree when adding a new person. If someone says no, then it's no
if husband and wife both agree then its cool? |

Basically yes, then if you want to add another person after, husband, wife, and the person that was added before need to agree to add the next person |

That's a highly individual question, I personally couldn't do it. I trend towards the anxious side, and I tend to be a bit jealous. Even if I worked on myself for the rest of my life, I don't think I would ever be really happy with it.
But you think its bad? |

I think they can work and be fulfilling, but you have to be honest and trustworthy, and good about communicating.

If they are only a friend and not actually part of the relationship, you just need consent of the people in the relationship. That's what I do when flirting online with people, I have the consent of everyone in my relationship (only my bf for now) So as long as she keeps you aware and that you say it's fine, it's perfectly ok in my opinion |

if both living in different states Is it even a "relationship" then? On what terms? Do they have plans for life? Together?? Why is one of them asking for "open" (whatever that means in this case)? IMHO It might well be that the one has already given up the other, but the other doesn't admit reality...
No they plan not for together, just for one to three month |

If by cope, you mean it has emotional utility, then, yeah. All relationships are a cope for loneliness and disconnection, no matter the arrangment.
so its good if both agree?> UI |

I think why you are choosing to do it matters. I think open relationships can be successful, but like are you doing it to keep a relationship on the rocks going? Or are you both legitimately capable of polyamory and able to be available to each other and your other partners in a way that doesn't feel demeaning to anyone involved?
actually one thing happened can i share on messge? |

You’re living in different states, every relationship work well with communication. An open one doubly so and your geographical position doesn’t create a good setting for it to work |

It's been a long road but when I met GF I knew I wanted to date her and that I didn't want to cheat. She is happily married and was already poly so I talked to my wife about it. It was suuuuper weird at first, but now we're all friends. The most important thing about being poly- what makes it poly instead of just cheating- is openness and honesty. Just be honest and everything will work out for you. |

That’s not what I said. What I said was the distance will work against you in this open relationships. If she already kiss another person without talking with you before, this is not an open relationship. |

For me, I prefer when both me and my bf can be flirty with the person. If the person prefers me or my bf, I fear that it could lead to jealousy, so I try to make sure everyone gets their fair share of flirting :3 |

Ok so to be poly everyone involved has to be good with it, and if you're not comfortable then it's not poly; it's cheating. My wife wasn't comfortable at first so we talked about it and now she is, but it's definitely not for everyone. The mononormative worldview in our society is DEEPLY ingrained. For the people in my polycule it's healthy and good for us, and all four of us have a good relationship with each other. |

I'm split on it. I'm involved with someone who is in one, which basically means I am in one. I don't really want to see anyone else, myself. He already had another BF when we met. Sometimes I wish I was the only one so he'd give me more attention cuz we see each other maybe once a week, if he's not busy wifh work or school or his other friends. Which makes it feel like I'm just the one he sees when he can't see anyone else. |
