I mean, I wouldn't want to deal with the mental gymnastics involved with my significant other getting down with other people
I think they were reacting to the "no one can appear even if it was an old video before we met" part.
I mean, there's still mental gymnastics going on there. For me at least
An open relationship isn't that weird of a concept to some. It's about how much others mean to you, not how much of them you posess. People in these comments are fucking pathetic for not understanding this basic fact of healthy relationships: You do not own anyone else. To any degree. Period.
That's a neat story you got there, but literally nobody here is saying they do own someone else.
Why yes you are correct: what I'm saying isn't appliccable to 100% of people! Do you want a gold star for your basic observation?
It's like you retards don't understand that not everyone has or wants the same relationship.
You are in this comic.
I think most people here agree with you, it's just that the way you're speaking to them comes off as judgemental and kinda mean, so they respond accordingly.
I mean we're just chatting, but for some reason it feels like you're yelling
Not my problem Poe's Law is real.
Haha yeah, only 75% of your comment was attempting to be insulting in some way! How could anybody think you're being an ass? Poe's law sure is crazy.
Right, I'm definitely not commenting about the previous part of the discussion. Or did you forget that happened?
Retard is apparently appropriate.
I'm sorry for not going into further detail?? You've used belittling or downright insulting language in like 5/7 of your comments in this thread now. And the small page of profile digging I had to do to find those shows it's not just this thread you've got an attitude in. Maybe you're the problem and not everybody else?
About conversations turning south? Absolutely, totally my fault. Though you're still all retards fundamentally failing to understand how healthy relationships work or how what I said applies.
The problem is that so far literally nobody has disagreed with you. Some people have said that open relationships aren't for them, and then you went and said they're claiming they own people??
Please point to a single instance where somebody has said they own someone else, or that they think open relationships are disgusting or some shit. No, I imagine we all understand how healthy relationships work but you're too busy putting words in our mouths to see that you're insulting people over things they never said.
Do not take me speaking in generalities as specific accusations. You people really need to learn reading comprehension.
Lol
I said nobody here. I.e. these comments, the people you said think that. Would you like a participation trophy for your reading comprehension?
No ownership, but sharing time. I want to buy a house not a time-share. I want that deep emotional connection with someone. I don't have the capacity to have more than one deep connection and would like someone similar. If my partner chooses they want something open, that's fine, but we would transition to friends
