singles thread

[sifi]

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the last few pages of this thread. I spoke to my other half last night about infidelity and things and she reassured me that she stands by her marriage vows and then said she'd never seen me so insecure.

Worm, you are a c**t. Before you starting messing with my head, ask my permission.

On the plus side, she did make me some really nice veal shanks for my tea to cheer me up a bit.

And is there any chance you could start up a separate thread for your philosophical ramblings?

Let's those of us in happy, loving relationships enjoy them & let's hear more tales of singledom & it's ups & downs (.....erm or not as the case may be).

[Katster]

It's like a child calling a vintage champagne a liquid.

[Goblinz]

Depends what we mean by 'work'. If you mean a constant relationship based upon two people, then obviously it's not going to work.

[sifi]

Seriously?

If words on the internet really mess with your head too much then you should be careful what you read... Stop being insecure, your wife's not going anywhere, it's all fine!

[greenfairy43]

Yes seriously. And I'm not normally insecure at all. I'm blaming Worm.

[Katster]

I imagine you're generally feeling a bit vulnerable at the moment, you know you love your wife & you know she loves you. That's one of the most amazing feelings in the world.

Enjoy.

[Goblinz]

I prefer a good orgasm, personally. Or cheese on toast.

[Radar]

Yes seriously. And I'm not normally insecure at all. I'm blaming Worm.

[sifi]

I'm alright now, just a funny place to be in. And as I said she made me ossobuco last night. And that Katster destroys cheese on toast I'm afraid.

Never heard it called that before, is this why he's called Mr Cheese?

[Katster]

And that Katster destroys cheese on toast I'm afraid.

There's no need to over complicate things! I mean that both the people in the relationship (partners), and the other people they are involved with are happy and therefore the relationship will last.

[Radar]

If you're having an open relationship but your goal is for it to last, good f**king luck. I suppose you could call this the reason for fidelity and marriage. A better alternative to the ownership theory I reckon.

[sifi]

Yours or your wifes?

[Katster]

Over complicate? I was giving you the answer. Here, I'll spell it out..................

The goal of an open relationship is not the same as the goal of a closed relationship. One doesn't really have a goal, whereas the other is intended to last. Therefore, you can't really measure the success of an open relationship.

If you're having an open relationship but your goal is for it to last, good f**king luck. I suppose you could call this the reason for fidelity and marriage. A better alternative to the ownership theory I reckon.

[worm]

Seriously though - surely people don't marry simply for the exclusive sex.

[Katster]

In fact many people on some level dread the idea of only shagging one person for the rest of their lives.

[worm]

Is a relationship that works only a relationship which lasts forever then?

[worm]

The child isn't wrong though. A vintage champagne IS a liquid.

[sifi]

No. For the exclusive intimacy.

[Radar]

If I'm enjoying it with one person, and continue to do so, it fills me with nothing but pleasure to think of only having sex with them for the rest of my life.
