I recently read about a member here living as a quad (4 people living openly as a couple would). We also have a total open relationship which served us well for 40 plus years.

I was wondering how others do? Humans being humans, connections are made with others which often become intimate.

Do you do "it" and tell your partner? Is your partner OK with it? What are you 'ground rules' if you do venture there?

Any further comments?

That was just @surface his religion allows him to have 4 wives.
 
If your SO finds about you flirting with another woman and is just jealous without being mad, she'd probably let it slide.... Though if she meets the other woman in person she might throw hands with her

Just get your wife a strapon she can use in you.

Perhaps she does have one. But that is not going to really satisfy the urge to be with a man at times for a man that is bisexual. He is open about it with his wife and she seems OK with it from what I understand with him satisfying his needs when he needs too. No problem with that. Good for her for being open minded and understanding if you ask me.
 
Also, just a note from myside. The title of this thread is wrong. Open relationship automatically means that both or more parties (if you are thruple for example) knows that it is a open relationship. It is implied by the very name. If your partner does not know then you are just cheating in a monogamous relationship.

I think whatever floats your boat. If it doesn't hurt anyone else who cares. Issue I have is when there are children in these open families.

Agree, and that is why if you're going to be in an open marriage then you should not breed little cockblockers. It just isn't right
 
not livign as a Quad yet, but we are moving in together soon. wife and I are moving into the new house dec 1st, otehr couple will be moving in over december, they only have to be out of the current place end of Dec.


for calrity, we are 2 couples, but there is nothing between me and the other guy and no interest in it happening.
for the past 2 years the 4 of us have spent every weekend, and sometimes more together. either all 4 of us in 1 house or a swap weekend. there have been like 6 "couples" weekends where we did not visit each other or swap completely in the past 2 years.

too much debauchery to talk about on an open forum, but just know everyone is happy.

Point taken. I hope the context clarifies what I mean?
