At fifteen both me and my partner were more mature than this, he told me he had a crush on a guy and asked if he was allowed to pursue it and that if I said no, he would never touch the subject again. I said yes and they dated for a couple months and then broke it off and guess what? Me and my partner are still together 5 years later and now are married, we also have a boyfriend now because I noticed a friend was flirting with me and I told him about it and he said I could pursue it
You sound 19 bc you can’t comprehend that not everyone is okay with things like that. Adults are allowed to have boundaries and break up when their boundaries are crossed. A discussion doesn’t always magically fix a boundary being crossed. If you’re into threesomes or being in an open relationship then that’s something you should communicate BEFORE dating someone.
Not disagreeing with your post, but that’s not necessarily true. My partner and I opened up our relationship because we both agreed it would be even more fun that it already was. We’re not bored of each other or have eyes for someone else, if anything, it’s just made for an even deeper bond and trust. It’s not for everyone but it shouldn’t be demonized like that
How is saying something you want crossing a boundary ? You’re acting like they cheated. This what I mean by it’s childish. Thinking your partner magically shouldn’t be attracted to anyone else because yall are dating is childish. Throwing away a relationship because you just don’t want a 3some is childish
My partner did already have a crush when he told me abt it yes, however I didn’t have a crush on my friend, I just noticed he was flirting and realized I didn’t dislike it and immediately told my partner before feelings could develop, and once I had the go ahead, I went ahead and pursued. Some people don’t need to find a third person before they realize they would like to be loving more and be loved by more than one person.
