Cheating, open relationships and ENM.


Recommended Posts

I wouldn't know. Open relationships and enm don't exist in my world. Either you all participate together in a poly or you are faithful to one person. That way there's never any room confusion or lies. (Unless your partner cheats)

My question would be whether or not he knows. Like, make it very clear that his knowledge of this relationship is important to you. If he doesn't know, then it's cheating. If he does know, then she is prioritizing her relationship with him, which is part of the agreement that she should have made clear from the start.

For us, we just see it this way: if we're both aware of what's going on and agree to it, it's fine. If someone's not aware of what's going on, that falls into the realm of cheating. Or at least a very dark gray area

Open Relationship: I am monogamous. It means that my ex listened to me when I said that we need to meet new people. I'm not looking at her to be my life companion anymore. We've decided to have a rational breakup and remain civil with each other, rather than have an emotional fallout. I am on the market.

“We opened the relationship up instead of flipping it upside down.”
