Exploring other options while in a committed relationship

[FLATOP]

What is your opinion on exploring other options while in a committed relationship (not married of course)

I am NOT talking about cheating. What I mean is if you know you have a connection with some new person should you continue to engage with that person or cut them off just because you're in a relationship

Sometimes I meet women I know I vibe with and intentionally avoid them because of it. Would it be betraying your partner if you did the opposite

 

[Rhapscallion Démone]

Yes

 

[BigMan]

That’s what women do lol

 

[Omar Little]

Then You're not in a committed relationship.

 

[Neuromancer]

Nah. I wouldn't. Even my female friends who I've smashed and I have drifted apart

 

[O.T.I.S.]

I admire from a distance

 

[Vandelay]

I've done this.

You shouldn't if you're on the up and up.

Wither people like it or not this is becoming a normal conversation. Relationships in the us will transcend the rules that have been set many century ago. This year alone I've already meet so many bi sexual males and females. Most people aren't ready to have these types of conversations. Peoples egos is fragile....

If you’re not married you don’t owe a boy/girlfriend shyt. Just don’t bring back STDs.

Then you're not really committed. Committed means you're all in. You not really looking for anything else.

If I found a good woman, i'd never do it again.


Made that mistake and lost my grate white buffalo.


Now a life in solitude cuz the grass on the other side was deemed burnt.



My choices... now my consequences.

From the sound of it, anything even slightly non-platonic should be bushed or you're not really "committed"

Would it be betraying your partner if you did the opposite

if your girl continually went out with a dude she had a connection with would you feel betrayed?

It'll be accepted if you have money and the swagger to pull it off. It'll never be mainstream.

It'll continue with this quasi-polyamarous trend where people just cheat on each other then act upset when they catch the person down the line.

Modern relationships will be fukked up for sometime because society will be hard pressed to draw a line in the sand on exactly what will be socially acceptable.

Polygamy won't be accepted.
Polyamory won't be accepted.
Monogamy won't be accepted.
Celibacy won't be accepted.

Some noncommittal hodgepodge of these things will be the norm in my opinion.

This is the beginning of the end of your current relationship
