    I wouldn't believe in that aha. I mean if it works for others, go ahead do your thing. But for me, I don't feel like one hall pass would save or help the foundation of a relationship if that's even needed

    I'd pass on this. FH and I both believe that sex is something that stays between us only

    I'll be the first (possibly only) oddball. We are human beings. We change and grow and we hope to do so together and in the same direction. I've already told my FH that I believe in full disclosure communication and sometimes that can feel uncomfortable if the piece of information isn't something "good." I would prefer to discuss with each other if we are having feelings of attraction to others or curiosity and entertain options that would allow us to stay together and still be human beings supporting each other in love. Because, afterall, love is unconditional and we should accept all of each other. Rather than be cheated on because my FH is a human being experiencing very natural feelings, I'd prefer to at least explore, with my best friend, what else might be helpful or bring us closer together.

    Being attracted to other people is completely normal. When we demonize that and claim that loving someone means not having those feelings, we create a taboo and a place for feeling ashamed which, IMO, leads down a road of deception and possibly infidelity.

    Sometimes just knowing you won't be judged for being human is enough. Sometimes just the convo is enough. Personally, I told FH I'd rather go out together and have the experience together if that is what it took. To each their own!

    I agree with the previous post. Many look at things as black and white leaving no room for gray areas. Everything should be discussed within the relationship and then decided what works for both parties.

    I'm not going to call it cheating, because if 2 grown adults have this conversation and agree that this is okay for their relationship, then I'm not going to judge. I have friends in open relationships and I dont see a problem with their lifeatyle... it's just not one I would want.

    My FH and I have talked about being open and honest but I've told him from the beginning that I'm only interested a monogamous relationship and he feels the same. But I hope this is a conversation we never have to have and be serious about it.

    I agree that a hall pass might not work for every relationship.

    I'm glad you're both on the same page. Having differing opinions in this case could be a disaster.

    It's only cheating if they snuck behind your back and did it. If you both agreed to it then it was your agreement.

    I agree with you, I wouldn't call it cheating either if it was discussed and agreed upon.

    Oh heck no. To ya, marriage is monogamous and itā€™s committing yourself to one person along with pledging your love and vows. There is no room for a third person

    A hall pass wouldnā€™t work for me in general, but maybe possibly in rare circumstances.

    Most of these comments Iā€™m reading seem to be pointing to no religion. My fiancĆ© and I are both Christians and this is entirely corrupt in every way with no exceptions. I feel extremely sorry for those who do this and think itā€™s okay. šŸ™šŸ»
