Sexual infidelity is not infidelity-Kjo - Page 13

Well, actually, one "sticks" to one partner in a so-called open marriage...it's about sex with others which doesn't make the others a "partner".

Still, I find this term a kind of excuse for libertinage.

RTH correctly wrote, that marriages have multiple reasons and - eventually - are contracts whose entering into can have various reasons - from economical and political ones to love and procreation ones.

Actually, I would plead to focus only on the own marriage and what one is willing to give to the partner (and oneself) as freedom outside the common life (and not bother about other people's married lives - except if they happen to the close family).

Edit: I just have started to watch a US webseries with Jane Fonda, Martin Sheen, Lily Tomlin and Sam Waterston..."Grace and Frankie" ... oh, I like it! (what an interesting plot)

Women hold the power to RESET any process of this nature ...

That's why so many men have to assure themselves that they have more power then women...

I have a friend who is married and has a kid, she developed feelings for an old friend who she knew since 10 years. God knows how, maybe her friend understood her better than her husband did, or her husband lacked something, even she didn't know. But she felt so guilty about it. She couldn't do anything about it, no matter how hard she tried to forget the guy and focus on her married life. She even cut all contact with him but she still couldn't get him out of her mind. If you consider that as cheating, then how do you think one should deal with such a situation? She has no reason to leave her husband, because it's not like she's unhappy with him.

A person can get attracted to two people at the same time. There are some things which can't be controlled.

Few years after marriage boredom seeps in than there r fights too. When someone starts talking to an outsider in marriage that time looks beautiful as there is no Chik Chik of home duties n in laws interference just pure emotion with no responsibility n expectations n demand.. With husband it's opposite there is so much Chik chik.

Being married one should not indulge with outsiders or friends so much that they get romantic attachment.

If I'm wife n my husband gets such attachment with someone else I would be badly hurt n will lose trust in him n marriage would start looking meaningless from that point.

Ur friend first need to realise that such attachment is wrong n if she would be at her husband's place how she would have felt. Also she can realise that the person who she is attracted to wouldn't have been same if he would be her husband. Men can be very understanding n caring towards friend or girlfriend n may not have same attitude with wife.

Of course one can love more than one person...and being attracted to them - mentally, emotionally and physically.

One cannot decide for another person...in your friend's case, it is up to her (and the concerned others)...we cannot judge...

(just thinking of Minty and her lover who most probably doesn't live in an "open" marriage and is cheating with her on his wife and kids...maybe he genuinely loves her...and his wife, too...)

A seductress would be able to lure most men into the bathroom ... 😃

I suppose, the bathroom isn't the main goal...

On one side ppl r not considering sexual infidelity as cheating n other side wife's r giving affidavit they won't cheat after clearing Civil services

People do develop feelings without intending to, in such case the best thing is to distance yourself from that person instead of spending more time with them. Are you telling me that a man should not even hang out with female friends if he;'s committed?

A lot of people think Rekha still meets Amitabh secretly and it is main reason why Jaya is so bitter or why Rekha still dresses the way she does or wears sindoor.

I feel bad for anyone who marries politicians, film stars or business tycoons.

They are least likely to be loyal and have plenty of options.
