Signs an Open Marriage Is Not For You

Want an open relationship? Check out why it might not work for you and your partner – for now.

An open marriage is not a “free pass” to cheat on your Partner.

Saying you are in an open relationship doesn’t justify your affair. Cheating with permission is not “open,” it is consensual cheating.

If you are looking for a permission slip that says you can sleep with other people, you aren’t ready for an open marriage.

Being open means having a consensual agreement, and both of you have to agree on what that new monogamy agreement is going to look like. You each create the monogamy agreement, and honor the rules, negotiating your relationship in ongoing flexible ways, in an attempt to avoid the dishonesty and betrayal of infidelity.
