  So HN debate is now reduced to fallacy linking? This is not just from one example this among other things a series of documentaries, friends and my now 37 years. Of course there are some people who can deal with it but chances are that they are not in love. That is at least my experience feel free to counter with experiences or knowledge about successful open relationships where the people are

    Hardly, but without some background or sources I'd say a majority of people wouldn't know where you're coming from.

      I am not sure I follow. Do you know of anyone in an open relationship who is in love and happy about their spouse fooling around with other people? I know of none and I know quite a few people who did it, saw a couple of documentaries about it. I am more than happy to be proven wrong but as far as I am concerned my point still stands and is fairly rational. If you are in love, open relationships ain't what it's all pumped up to be.
