Nope. But I wouldn't mind having a third party pop in every now and again.

Very true...it's so weird that so many older generations have done that. It's almost like an outdated, supernatural belief system was pressuring them to stay together against the sake of their own happiness.
Gwyneth Paltrow's website GOOP actually had a fascinating article about relationships that brought up the fact that for over 52,000 years the human life expectancy had never risen over 46 for men and 48 for women. But since 1900 those numbers have doubled. Now that people are living well into their 70's, 80's and beyond and the average life timeline has shifted, relationships just don't function they way they did a hundred years ago.

Probably not. I am the world's least sexually active hoe. I've been with many men but I just don't have sex that often. So I know my boyfriend would probably be getting as many men a week as he could while I'm at home playing Skyrim or re-reading Harry Potter for the hundredth time.
I've done 3 ways because I'm not much of a top or bottom. I prefer to masturbate over having sex. But try finding a guy like that. I've met one in the last 5 years. I have a video of him. But yeah I'm the worst person to be with since I'm so screwed up and ungay like
If you supposedly "love" someone, but that person isn't good enough for you in some way - that isn't love. And yeah, maybe it would be nice to have some variety to spice things up, but people get jealous - it's a NATURAL REACTION to seeing someone else with the person you love.
Sure, it might work if you're both putting no value in sex whatsoever - but sex between two people who love each other is almost always an intimate connection. Why do you want to take that connection and give it to other people because they're aesthetically pleasing? That seems so wrong, just taking something shared between you and the person you love and giving it to someone else you think is hot.
I am into polyamory, so yes, but not so much "open" - you have to communicate and clear with each other and ask for permission and allow what you feel okay with, otherwise jealousy becomes an issue.
