A female South Africa age 30-35, anonymous writes:

hi ok i have been in an open relationship for a year now.i know pple may critisize but it works for us we r both not ready to propaly settle down i am not jealouse if he goes and sleeps with other girls cause i know that to him its just for fun for the trips. and i have fun too.

anyways heres my proplem. i am in colledge and some "'freinds" boys and girls alike r always doing and saying things to try make me break up with him. when i tell my bf he says that its because the girls want him all to there selfs and the guys want me without him in the way. i wud say thats propaly true. but what they say puts doubts in my mind. like stuff like well if hes sleeping with other pple he propaly doesnt love u. and stuff like that. what shud i do? i enjoy my relationship with him and i hate the ugly seeds of doubt that sprout in my mind specially since its friends who say it and my bf proplay hit the nail on the head by there being selfish.

i don't mean to upset you but no he probably doesn't love you.

he is just in it for the sex and you happily give him it.

he can't love you if he is going around sleeping with other women when a boyfriend truly loves you he wouldn't look at another woman, never mind have sex with one

it's complicated.. i just think he wants a little of everything and i don't think he'll ever "settle" down which means if you get serious he'll be 100x more tempted to go back to that open relationship and cheat on you. You kinda sound like you don't want commitment either but it's up to you. just be careful your heart could get hurt

Danielepew agony auntMy personal opinion is that open relationships mean that the parties don't want to do the hardest commitment of all, which is monogamy. Whether that suits you or not is your business, not mine, so I won't go there.

If you want this kind of a relationship, have it; if you, personally, don't feel comfortable with it, then don't.
