Because you are confusing love with a basic biologic need. Sex is something you just do for fun. It's a way to feel better and destress. If you happen to love the person that's awesome but if not it's still great.
I know several people in open marriages/relationships. My best friend is "married" to a married couple. In sex and love there's no one size fits all. As long as all parties are happy, of age and are consenting who cares?
I would be ecstatic to be in an open marriage because my husband can simply no longer keep up with me. It doesn't mean I love him any less. It just means he can't keep up in the bedroom. He knows this and has brought up the idea of an open marriage but I'm not falling for it. He's too insecure, jealous and paranoid for it to work. Toss in he's schizophrenic and it would be a mess but a girl can dream.

I could not do it because I loved my Wife too much and she was upset over the fact somebody suggested it to me. I would have rather spent the rest of my life in a sexless marriage with her than slept with other women because she was the only woman I wanted to do that with. |
