    Reach for the stars, settle on the moon  Tongue

    By all my needs what I mean is this:

    My bf is great, he's kind and interesting. I love the way he's so earthy, hunting, fishing, etc. I have a good relaxed life with him.

    I miss being in a relationship with a guy who's younger, more lively. Partying, etc.

    Also, I miss having an affectionate bf. My bf is caring but not affectionate. This type of guy annoys me but I miss it sometimes. I also like having a smart knowledgable older bf, but I miss the doe eyed admiration of a younger guy.


    And it's 'a fact' that because you're never going to find that, everyone else's 'needs' are out of the question too? I see.

    I never said I was a saint Tongue. Anyway, cheating in a relationship with a girl, and helping a woman who is unhappy with her husband and can't leave him without being stigmatised by society, are 2 different things.


    Yeah, help her. Help her gooood. Help the shit out of her until she's a sweaty, quivering mess. Yeaaaah, fuckin humanitarianism, baby.

    I want to stay committed to one person, because you can build things together, and the more people you have (in an open relationship for example) the more complicated matters get. Two person system is simpler. One person is the most simplest - least conflict, but we desire love...

    Anyway I think you build a stronger connection with one person and the longer you stay with them, as long as you do really love them in the first place, and its not something based on lust, infatuation etc. Lust = wanting to simply hump them, love = wanting to build your future with them (plus hump them).

    love like wine tastes better with time...

    love isn't strong by itself, it needs commitment, self control, generosity, trust etc...and time

    I definitely agree with both those statements and the second one is definitely a big obstacle, whether you want a monogamous or open relationship.

    Finding someone that ticks all your boxes is hard enough... and then you have to tick all of their boxes too! Maybe it would be simpler to swap application forms  Tongue

    Next to impossible,because it's basic human nature. You can minimize them but not totally eliminate them.

    “Through all this ordeal his root horror had been isolation, and there are no words to express the abyss between isolation and having one ally. It may be conceded to the mathematicians that four is twice two. But two is not twice one; two is two thousand times one. That is why, in spite of a hundred disadvantages, the world will always return to monogamy.” ― G.K. Chesterton, The Man Who Was Thursday

    “When I tell her I feel like the other woman, she laughs, that's just learned sexist bullshit. We are all in charge of our own bodies and what we decide to do with them. We are all our own.

    I believed it when she said it, like she'd opened up a new valve that had been stuck. I felt unconfined and open-minded and totally confused. Intellectually, non-monogamy made complete sense; emotionally, it felt like sandpaper across my eyelids.” ― Zoe Whittall

    But then I felt love.  I never wanted anybody else.  No one came close, no one could turn my head anymore.

    I would still do the open thing, but chances are if I have decided to be open with you, its because what I feel for you just isn't enough.
