Today, my fiancée told me that she wants us to have an open marriage. She reasons that since she doesn't equate sex with love, there's no logical reason for me to be against her having sex with other people. FML

OP here. We've actually had a threesome together and loved it. But she specifically wants to be with other men without me there.

Don't knock it til you try it OP; open relationships are ******* fantastic. <3

I've been in one and in my experience it just complicates things. It's not for everyone.

I wouldn't ever want to be in one, I'd become jealous and if I'm going to be with someone I want to know they want to be with me and only me.

This is why I don't want to be in love. Why don't you tell her the same that she shouldn't mind if you were sleeping with other girls or guys? Hahahaa fyl!

she probably wont mind. some people simply dont think that way about sex but have other things that keep their relationship special

OP probably wouldn't feel comfortable with it. Since he looks at monogamy as part of the marriage package he'll feel like a scumbag for being with someone else even if she is totally fine with it.

then they need to adult about it and talk. if it isnt going to work for them then they should go their seperate ways if not it just ends as one of them being forced into a lifestyle they dont want.

wish you knew that before, don't ya?

Then why bother getting married. Dump her.

Sounds like she already has a guy in mind. Or has been cheating on you the entire time...

I'm a big fan of polyamory, swinging, open marriage...whatever nonmonogamous arrangements people want to make. But if it doesn't work for you, then it doesn't work, and DTMFA and find someone else.

Well bring another woman home and **** her in front of your fiancé see what she will say.

That a stupid idea. Some polygamist types do not feel jealousy at all. Judging by what she suggested, she could be one of them. So most likely it won't work.

I've been given full permission to do so. I'm just not interested.

What do you think? are you ok with her sleeping with other guys once you're married?

156, that would mean she's polygamist/polyamorous type while you aren't. If you really want to marry her, you could try to talking/explaining/finding some kind of compromise (although I can't imagine any middle ground compromise here). If that doesn't work, and IF you wanted to marry out of love (and not out of convenience), then *perhaps* you'll have to marry somebody else.

Did you tell that psycho to pack her shit and leave? I sure ******* hope so op.
