White women black men dating: Discussing the option of an open relationship

White women looking for black men are often looking for a serious relationship and are skeptical when it comes to open relationships. But who says that an open relationship can not be serious? An open relationship is one where both partners can date other people as well, but are emotionally committed to each other. Depending on the mutual agreement of the two partners, there are different levels of interaction accepted with people outside the relationship. Some partners feel that flirting is all that should be accepted, while others do not even mind their partner having sex with another person.

 

Before you start screaming that you would never date black men who want an open relationship, lets have a look at the positive and negative aspects of such an arrangement. When it comes to the positives, many fans of open relationships claim that humans were never meant to be monogamous and in many parts of the world having more than one spouses is not just acceptable, but the norm. In other words, they feel that open relationships are much closer to natural human behavior. So if you feel that you could thrive emotionally by interacting with more than one partners, this model might suit you.

 

Additionally, many people who are or have been in interracial relationships believe that such an arrangement keeps the spark alive, because it is harder to take your partner for granted. Plus, when he or she is out with someone else, you have time to spend with your friends or enjoying your hobbies and discovering yourself. Open relationships, when balanced, allow for more space for the individual to be exactly that: an individual. If you have friends who are couples and are constantly together, finishing off each other's sentences and becoming each other's clones, and you hate it, then you would be glad to know that an open relationship helps you avoid such behaviors.

 

On the other side of the coin, there are many men who could never date white women in the context of an open relationship, because they could not handle jealousy. The same goes for many women as well, of course. It doesn't matter if jealousy stems from possessiveness or low self esteem. What matters is that a jealous person is suffering in an open relationship. And unless they are willing to try and deal with this weakness, their partner will also soon become miserable. Another negative aspect of an open relationship can be the social pressure. You must be 100% sure of your choice, in order to be able to support it, because there will be this friend who will come to you and say that they saw your boyfriend making out with someone else at some point. Unless you are ready to confidently say “We are in an open relationship, I hope she / he is having a good time” prepare for a lot of lies from your side and pity from strangers.

 

So should you consider an open relationship or not? The truth is that only you know the answer. If you have never tried it before, then you can discuss your expectations with your date, and if you can find common ground, you can try it out. Who knows? Maybe this is the key to your happiness!
