He wants an open marriage, but I'm unsure

I've been married for 5 years, and recently, my husband suggested we try an open marriage. He believes it will strengthen our bond, but I can't help feeling insecure and uncertain about this change. While I want to make him happy, I'm not sure if I'm comfortable with this idea. How do I approach this without jeopardizing our relationship? Any advice? #WhatWouldYouDo #OpenMarriage #RelationshipAdvice

Bad move by suggesting it he is already over your marriage true love doesn't suggest things like that you should not lower yourself to that kind of trash I personally know people who have done that and it never works.🙏

I personally can’t do that… sometimes when people say that they have already been betraying you… hopefully not this case.but it sounds like he’s wondering if the grass is greener on the other side instead of watering his own grass….I would think and maybe I’m wrong but I would think that while your back is turned he’s not thinking about ways to improve your life… he’s thinking about how to betray you. Think about this… when he talks to another woman like that… he’s giving away your resources. That’s your attention. Resource. Affection that’s your resource. Love. That’s your resource. Dating that’s your resource. Money on gas drinks food dates. Those are your money and resources. Flirting that’s your resource. Your sexual energy for you given away to another person..that’s how I see it. That’s why i couldn’t. I see it as the minute you want to flirt with someone else and give away my resources leave me because there’s a bunch of people that want to give me the world that won’t do that

The answer is no. You committed both yourselves to each other not a 3rd party. Open marriage =Divorce. You don't need the drama.

the answer is no... your marriage is under God, and it is sacred. if he breaks his commitment, leave run for the hills because it's a sign of infidelity, abuse, or even a change in values or beliefs. this goes for both sexes, but in your case, stay safe and i pray it works out.. God bless and God speed.

I feel he's already seeing someone,and the excuse of an open marriage is just his way of covering up his deceit. Run don't walk to your nearest divorce lawyer.

Say NO. Don't sacrifice your self-worth and dignity. Set your boundary and consequences if he crosses the line. If he can't accept and honor that and respect you for that boundary, he's the wrong man.If you find he crosses that boundary follow thru with your consequences.It's no different than setting boundaries for a child.Just say NO!!!!!

This question is the beginning of the end. Maybe he would prefer swinging to having an open marriage? Either way it is not good.

Just bring a guy home every night, be loud during sex and treat your husband like he’s just your roommate. He will be discouraged real fast!
