Habit (thought I spelled hobbit lol) as in before they got into the relationship and or through the years its what there used to, the thrill of sexual contact with another person, the thrill of "just one more time", the thrill of being in power and or being submissive again to a stranger, for their own kinky kicks, sex for sex and for just that, pure and utter madness, a case of "sure I can, so why not, I've done it before, whats going to change"? (A good front [:-|]) Then again they could just be seriously horny and need a good tear
Can one become a soulmate? Isn't the very definition of a soulmate someone your soul is bound to, the other half of your soul that you may or may not find in your lifetime?
Personally I don't think anyone is justified or qualified on an internet forum to analyse relationships other than their own. Its not possible to come to a black and white conclusion about somebody else's relationship when you're looking at it from the outside in. I know a few posts have expressed an intention not to hurt or put anyone down, but by standing in judgement over somebody's lifestyle or expressing an opinion about these lifestyles then surely some offence will be caused. To say that a post is just your opinion and then define it with bullet points seems a little contradictory to me, but this is simply my opinion . . .
It is very easy to put labels on people and their relationships. There are lots of people I know and like but I wouldnt want to be in the type of relationship that they have, I'm not judging them if it works for them fine but just not me. I would 150 million trillion times prefer to be single than have that type of relationship.Open relationships are the total opposite of what I want,with me it is total commitment or nothing. Sex is far to personal and emotional to me even when I am not going out with someone I don't sleep around, can't do it. Em no I'm not saying I'm a Saint either like
not a hope in hell would be i in an open relationship.if it was suggested to me by a partner i think 'd probably even consider ending the relationship.don't get me wrong i'm a very sexual person but i don't sleep around,nothing comes to close to the sex that you have with a partner that you are committed to and vice versa and where there is a deep bond and emotional connection.That bond and emotional connection obviously also extends to the sexual side of the relationship too. if somebody is in an open relationship then i presume they are just having sex without the emotional underpinning which personally isn't for me.don't get me wrong though,to each their own and if a couple wants to pursue this type of relationship then more power to them.it's just not something i could ever do.
fuckin cheek of ya,i dont sleep around t'all!!! should have known you'd post something like that lol!
Now I'm not saying this isn't always the case, but I think there is a misconception that open relationships are associated with an unwillingness to commit. I think in practice there is a place for them and yeah, some people do it all the time. I know by far the most satisfying of my relationships over the last 3 years have been open ones. Because its already agreed and accepted that they are free to make and break other relationships it does remove the potential for jealousy, and you can do what you like - and here is the thing - you can talk about it without recriminations.
Thats my problem with it shoegirl - I could never agree to it, never accept it and I'm insanely jealous.
I am disgusted (but not suprised) A guy I know who is with his partner 12 years did the dirt last night, a guy I know who is with his partner 10 years wanted to do the dirt last night. WTF is wrong with people. I don't get it at all FOOLS
