Today, my boyfriend blamed me for his affair, because apparently I "should have made it clear to him" not to have sex with other people. FML

Make it clear to him not to have sex with you

I would have punched him so hard that it would have knocked a few brain cells loose. Perhaps they would have fallen into place because he's clearly not operating on a logical scale.

I'm not defending him because what he did was entirely and utterly wrong and that sounded like a pathetic excuse that didn't really matter to him, but I do hear from people that you do actually want to state that you intend on a monogamous relationship when you started dating and that if you didn't you'd technically be in the wrong here.

Your comment makes me wonder if they really did establish a serious relationship at all. Like did either one say, "Will you be my boy/girlfriend?" Or did OP simply assume they were exclusive/ serious because they'd been dating for so long? Perhaps the guy just thought their relationship was casual and that there was no expectation of fidelity because there was never a discussion defining the relationship. Not saying that's what happened, but it would explain the guy's behavior.

Although, if they did actually agree to be a couple, it is generally assumed that defined relationships are exclusive. Rather, one should specifically express the expectation NOT to be exclusive, not the other way around.

Exactly, 33. The boundaries of a relationship are something that every couple should discuss when they decide to become serious. The desired boundaries are not held in common as often as we would hope or the media would depict. It's not your fault, OP, and you absolutely don't deserve it but next time you should discuss this sort of thing.

/triplefacepalm I don't want to live on this planet anymore. If you're in a relationship it's meant to be exclusive, if you want random sex, stay single. It doesn't take a genius.

How do you know that you're in a relationship? Just because you're seeing someone regularly, even sleeping with them, doesn't mean that it's serious. Also look up polyamorous relationships. It doesn't float my boat, but it exists and is probably more common than you think. It's a conversation you should have with your partner, it's not something you can just assume.

It's only a normal expectation when you enter a relationship with someone else.

That's why you should never date kids

They both sound like kids if they didn't discuss boundaries and expectations upon entering into the relationship.

Keep kicking him in the nuts with high heels on. After the first kick he won't be able to say anything. When you get tired of it, say "but you never said not to repeatedly kick you in the nuts."

Well, now you know to print up a contract of agreement for your next boyfriend.

Isn't that a marriage? Or being Sheldon Cooper's roommate?
