  Uhhh, if you donpt like marriage, how about don’t get married?! This isn’t rocket science… They both got married. They both signed the social contract that by default means exclusivity, regardless of what you think.

    Even married, you can have an honest discussion with your spouse about seeing other people (preferably before you get married), then just tell them you’re going to see Coleplay with your work girlfriend. Like it’s not illegal, and it’s not even wrong unless you make it wrong by being a shady little shit about it.

    Just like fuckin… talk to each other about your feelings. God.

      I love how you’re being downvoted for stating the most obvious solution.

      My besties have been in an open relationship for years and it works because of communication, trust, and trying to deserve said trust.

    No, I want it abolished as a social expectation of the “default” situation.

      No one forces a marriage to be monogamous…

  I'm all for people being able to bone other consenting adults, married or not, but these two clearly think that cheating is bad. If they had open relationships, then why would they care if they were seen together?

  Toxic polyamory is just as bad as toxic monogamy. If people want to be exclusive they should be exclusive. If your partner wants to be exclusive and you don’t, and you choose to cheat, you’re still a piece of shit.

  I wanted to ask if you’re ok there but then I saw lemmy.ml and everything made sense all of a sudden.

    that’s brain rot thinking, you know that’s just the default and instance and therefore cannot mean anything that you think it does This is the kind of generalization behind a lot of evil in the world

      It’s an echochamber with all dissent being suppressed. The way you write shows you’re deeply stuck in it.

        But I"m not “there” to me the local tab is meaningless, I don’t even know on what server we are having this discussion besides “the lemmiverse” So stop it with the digital provincialism !

        I just expressed a maximally dissenting opinion on marriage and yet, the message still stands … Who are those dissenters that you imagine are getting suppressed on whatever that server is?

  The problem isn’t the lack of monogamy, it’s the violation of your partner(‘)(s)(’) trust.
