The Lies Of Open Marriage: A Road To Divorce

I have been following several YouTube channels as well as Reddit and other sources which convey stories of women bored with their regular married lives and decide to force their spouses to except an open marriage saying it will revive their mundane existence.

As I listen to all the tales, what has become abundantly apparent is that this idea is born out of selfishness. It is forced in many cases on a monogamous partner and shoved down the husband’s throat whether they like it or not. It never revitalizes anything. What I observe happening that it triggers divorce almost immediately.

In many cases, it also triggers a violent retaliation from the husband. A loving man can not accept not only betrayal in his wife.

But also due to pride and ego must find out who the offending man that took his wife, but in most cases either injured that man or in extreme cases eliminate them entirely.

As well as divorcing that wayward wife doing as much damage as possible to her reputation and finances in the process. It never ends well and most certainly does nothing to preserve the union.

The women involved at least in some cases see their husband’s as inadequate either as a lover, provider, or man. Rather than granting their husband’s the respect of simply leaving the marriage.

They prefer to embarrass and insult their manhood and try to force them into the position of a cuckled inferior beta male who accepts his position and allows the insult to stand.

Unfortunately, this rarely works to the woman’s advantage. As stated above, the husband tends to retaliate violently and go scorched earth. Or plot a revenge of epic proportion in which he destroys the lovers’ life, wife’s life, and then gets his own woman on the side as well.

In many cases, that woman is the wife of the man his wife has been having the affair with. Nothing is more dangerous than a woman scorned. As such, the wife of the man cheating with the first man’s wife exacts brutal revenge as well.

While a small, and I do mean small amount of people can live in a poly love lifestyle. Those are ones that began with that mindset from the outset of the relationships.

Not those who start out agreeing to a monogamous lifestyle, then after a period deciding to force the poly lifestyle later out of boredom or selfish desire. Those relationships fail 100% of the time. Most times, spectacularly.

Conclusion: A relationship is a partnership in which both spouse feelings and thoughts must be taken into consideration. As such, if one can not or will not accept the agreed upon conditions the under which the relationship began.

It’s better to part ways as friends. Rather than create hatred, animosity, and anger against a person you have loved for a long time. Further, if a person is truly your friend, why insult and destroy that relationship? It’s better to simply desolve that union walk away friends than to create life-long enemies for foolish reasons.

Boredom and selfishness is not a good enough reason to destroy the life of someone you care about. A final suggestion think before you act. Your actions have consequences.
