Comment: I do trust my man, it's the women I don't trust. Single women are expecially a no no. Mutal female friends (not best friends) hanging out with us both is alright, I don't really mind. But I would be upset if he started to hang out with her a lot just one on one. I never hang out with men one on one and I bet my man is glad.

Comment: No, there is no reason to cheat! If you are in a relationship that is so bad that you feel the need to cheat then you need to get out of the relationship. Cheating is a horrible thing to do and there is no reason good enough to justify it.

Comment: I never had any type of sexual education until high school! And at that time we just learned about the baby making items of males and females. I never once learned about safe sex or ways to protect myself. I was lucky though, I looked it all up online. I was a very curious 16 year old with internet access. I found all the facts I need to know. What you could do is look up some RELIABLE and appropriate websites and sit down with your children and help them look over the website. Or just use the information you read of the website to talk to them. Reading about it first will help you become more comfortable with the situation and handle it better. Good luck!

Comment: I think the felling you have of loving your daughter more than your husband comes from the fact they are two totally different loves. You can't messure two different loves in the same light, can't happen.

Comment: galois45 -- My partner 100% completes me. I am not in an open-relationship (but I'm not against them). Fun fact: Humans and penguins are the only two living things that participate in monogamous relationships. Here's another fun fact: Every living male is programed to "spread their seed." This is to get as many females pregnant as possible to continue and perserve their kind. So, in other words, open-relationships are completely normal.

Comment: Humans and penguins are the only two animals that participate in monogamy. It's still programed into every male's brain (even humans and penguins) to "spread their seed." The point is to get as many females pregnant as possible to continue and preserve their kind. That being said, my boyfriend and I have talked about having an open relationship, not neccisarly because we wanted one, it was just to make sure we were on the same page and wanting the same things. He expressed to me that he would be hurt if we had an open relationship. He says he doesn't want to be intimate, passionate, sexual with anyone but me. And I feel the same about him. My thoughts may change one day, nothing is set in stone; as of right now I love my boyfriend, he satisfies me more than anyone ever has and more than I could imagine and I don't want anyone else. I have had other lovers in the past, but I can not see myself with other lovers than my now partner.

Comment: I like ketchup on my eggs. I'm also smarter than you. I agree with everyone; these "red flags" seem like YOUR personal dis-likes.
