nfowler: oops sorry Can't


I said he was disabled, not that he coudn't perform but now we're getting into the personal realm of another and it's not style to dissect those very private issues of others while they are not present themselves.

Anyway, I guess you're right it was a win win situation. I got to have my cake and eat it and I must say I enjoyed it very well. It might not be a flavour you or many others like but that just means there's all the more for me laugh

Oh my god....did you miss the comments on mutual arrangement, the fact that he was also having his cake and eating it?? Honestly...now you are insinuating that I used some poor disabled guy while he meekly sat in his chair, no doubt with his heart breaking...

Why don't you just call it a witch hunt and be done with it!

rohaan: Someone always gets hurt, no matter what the "agreement" is.

Maybe,but it has never been me.
Thas because im emotionally detatched from the outset with a relationship that starts that way...practically minded and pidgeon hold women.
We men do put women in a box mentally dependant on our initial reacton to them.
And for me most men have a nimber of boxes they fit into and there very seldom changable.

Sommerauer71: Here is what I think Suzy. And I think you have been beautifully honest here.

...

I think you have raised a briliant point and the words 'open relationship' is enough to make people run for the hills and state their corner and 'no' is usually the answer. My answer is no, I could not deal with it, but I could deal with him wanting to be with another, I just do not want to be a part of that...


Well sommer, I think its no secret that Im quite a fan of yours and I do believe your man is a lucky one wink I do like the way you state your case and relate your position clearly while not bashing people for putting up ideas that don't match yours.

SuzyJ:

After this experience I started to wonder if this wasn't the holy grail of happy relationships.

What do you think?

not for me. but if it's not hurting anyone, i think other folks can make their own choices. my neighbors have an open relationship (they've been married 18 years). but i gotta mention, he looks very happy and has a younger gf; she says she's o.k. with it, but she doesn't look so happy. i can't help but wonder if she's doing it to try to hang on to him. jmo.

rohaan: AGREED. Just because we want something doesn't necessarily make it good for us. Lots of other instincts need to be dealt with responsibly. Fire is useful for warmth and cooking. Out of control it destroys, is a good way to put this thought.



....Well said...Good Sir.....thumbs up handshake

tainogirl: Why would I want someone to fulfill ALL my needs? I'm not looking for God. And I don't need a few, just one - to compliment no complete, maybe that is where a lot of people go wrong.


...As per usual Tainogirl....you have said so beautifully and spot on....thumbs up hug
