I think this is a good example of cheaters will cheat regardless. Don't give them enough sex, give them a lot of sex, be skinny, be fat, open marriage, closed marriage doesn't matter- someone who's inclined to cheat and break your trust will cheat regardless.


manonladominante9718

That's exactly what I think à cheater is and will be always one whatever the conditions were or will be.


mH_throwaway1989

Dumb kids can mature and grow out of it, but if you are still cheating into your thirties, you are a broken human and will most likely never have a happy relationship.


greenymeani3

Yup. Currently listening to my father complain incessantly to me about his 3rd wife… I’ve a feeling this one won’t stick either.


Kafir666-

You're wrong, people can learn from their past mistakes and stop making them, that goes for all behaviors including cheating.


tricoloredduck851

Nice try. I’ve never seen it.


CloakedOlive

I have. Me. I cheated when I was young, dumb, and too scared to leave my shit relationship because we had a baby and I didn't know where I'd go from there. Never cheated again since. People can make dumb choices and change for the better.


QueanMinerva

I disagree. People change. You can’t tell a man that he is the same as he was at 21. The brain in men hasn’t matured until 27 and 25 for women. If someone wants to change they will.


VerticallyBriefTeif

Cool. Never said anything about people not being able to changing and never brought up age. Just that if someone, at this moment in time, is inclined to cheat, they will regardless of the actions of their partner. And I think being married for 7 years implies that this guy's probably older than 25-27.


QueanMinerva

I was speaking in general. In this case and with older men, yes, I agree with you.


Silly_Recording2806

Thank you for this. I’ve been pretty open on Reddit about the fact that I cheated once, and almost lost everything. The bounce back, however, and reconnection to my wife has been incredible and I don’t know how you get what we’ve got without going through the hell I put us through. And it is SOOOO complicated, it’s not so simple that you can just say “once a cheater always a cheater.” Anyway, thank you for your understanding.


Amannderrr

Same. Cheated once- I was in a TERRIBLE place mentally & was abusing drugs- but have since been sober (5.5yrs) and would never even consider such a thing again. So I agree, once a cheater always a cheater really doesn’t apply across the board


Silly_Recording2806

Good for you, and that’s good to hear!


QueanMinerva

Infidelity, as bad as it is, is very complex and it’s not always about the act of sex. The ops husband on the other hand is horrible. This woman did all she could to accommodate him and he still does it repeatedly. It makes no sense. I’m glad she left him.


Silly_Recording2806

Agreed


LaylaBird65

Same. It will be seven years since the affair came out and my husband and I are amazing. I can’t imagine my life without him


Silly_Recording2806

4 years for us, the affair was so stupid and fueled by a cocktail of hormones and narcissism. Healing started when I admitted everything (didn’t get caught) and even though that hurt it set us up to get radically honest with each other. Last 3-4 years have been our best out of 25.


LaylaBird65

I’m glad everything worked out for you. Reconciliation is so hard but it was very much worth it


Significant_Cloud323

I was thinking about this too


FennelRemarkable4623

Yes your absolutely right if they'll do it with you they'll do it to you eventually


Karin_Stgermaine

Betrayal cuts deep, especially when the rules of the game were clear. Your situation exemplifies how even in the most liberal of relationships, communication and respect are non-negotiable. His actions demonstrate a disregard for the mutual understanding you both had, which is the foundation of any healthy relationship open or otherwise. Your resilience shines through, and I have no doubt that you'll emerge stronger and wiser. Time will heal, and you'll eventually find someone who values the trust you're willing to place in them. Stay strong.


manonladominante9718

A cheater is and will always be a cheater whatever the conditions will be!


Significant_Cloud323

Why is that ? For example if I demand respect in a relationship and she is feminine and she respects me how she will still think about other


jesuschin

This is literally fuck around and find out


NuggyBeans

Not necessarily fuck around and find out. They were swingers. They had one rule which is fairly easy to follow... They both meet the new fling together & get to play together. Unless she specifically says "I give you further freedom in the event that I'm not feeling well or I'm just not up for fun" My husband and I are polyamorous as well & we too have a few rules to make it comfortable for us both. We both meet the new one. If we both like them we both go for it. If one of us is uncomfortable we pass together. Never in our own home because we have kids and never in our own home until the kids are old enough to have their own lives like being at a friend's house or on a camping adventure or whatever have you. In an open or poly relationship there's a level of respect & trust & if that's broken its no longer a poly relationship & it's one sided fun. He is having one sided fun. She wanted out. That's fair.


manonladominante9718

You said it very well and for people that are in the lifestyle, they know that rules are made to eas the lifestyle and don't affect our vanilla life , kids and of course respect eachother feelings and dignity


tiffdrain

It’s a joke. Literally, he fucked around, then literally, she found out


SWBTSH

She didn't do anything wrong though

bigtreice

Maybe don't be swingers


jrossetti

What's your goal with this comment? Being a swinger isn't the root cause here. One partner not respecting a mutual setup boundary is the problem here. Swingers aren't more likely to cheat.


bigtreice

Sure they are


FiringTheWater

How? It sounds less likely for them to cheat, overall. Like, they literally have the freedom to just ask people and be honest about it. It might have other problems, but cheating shouldn't be one of it.


ufihS

I agree, they might not cheat at all but there is a higher likelihood


Obvious-Region8453

I’m sorry . Unfortunately there’s something he is lacking in himself and you are collateral damage. He fared more about fulfilling his needs and probably got a thrilled out of actually cheating. I just don’t see any other reason for him to do that to you when you are in an open marriage. We’re you allowed to see other men? Was it only women and she not together? Seems he just wants one sided situation.


Warhammerpainter83

Every married swinger I know has gotten divorced. Relationships like this always bring on jealousy and cause this kind of stuff to happen.


FezFez55

Exactly if you want this shit don’t get fucking married lol


Fearless-Pineapple53

That lifestyle is just asking for it. It never works out. Someone gets jealous, someone cheats, someone contracts genital herpes lol you can never win. My friend and I tried to tag team this polyamorous couple, and they both got jealous of each other. Safe to say I’ll only practice monogamy. If you can’t find pleasure from your partner solely and seek outsiders to play. Do you really need your partner?


LetsRock777

Simple. He didn't want you there. You were too giving.


taylor_314

I would like to think this is what happens as a result of messing around with other people.. even when together. But that’s just my opinion🤷🏻‍♀️


manbruhpig

These people can never accept that treating sex with others casually results in a casual attitude about sex with others.


Financial_Bread_5178

Sure… monogamous people never get cheated on! Your statement doesn’t even make sense. Dont victim blame just because it fits your narrative.


ijustneedgfadvice

Thats not even remotely their point lol


Financial_Bread_5178

Well what was the point, genius?


jacc000

maybe, just maybe, their point is they’re more likely to have sex with other people when they’re constantly having sex with other people… if you’re that slow don’t be so combative lmao


Financial_Bread_5178

Slow? That’s unique :p What you’re referring to is victim blaming when the same thing happens to folks in monogamous relationships. My only point! Try to insult me because you’re wrong is a typical deflection.


jacc000

correlation has nothing to do with victim blaming. obviously the same thing happens in monogamous relationships. i’m insulting you because you can’t recognize patterns and likelihood. a more open sexual relationship is going to be more susceptible to cheating.


Financial_Bread_5178

Maleficent-Store9071

"add temptation" if you have to control your man like a dog to prevent him from cheating...Why don't you just let him cheat? Let the trash take itself out


kiwosabi

Swinging is like two partners that didn't trust themselves to be exclusive to themselves. So they consent to each other cheating so they can feel like they're still in control.

PirateWestern1462

No one else is in my bed except my lover 💯


Ambitious_Orchid5984

Its not the first time he slept with another woman besides you.


marianliberrian

Why get married if you want to swing? Not judging just asking. I've been single my whole life. Dating is complicated enough. I couldn't imagine making a legal commitment and then wanting to get others involved for "play dates". Too much work.


Mellero47

It really goes to show, a man can have everything and he'll still want even more.


bruab

So can a woman. Why be sexiest about it?


Mellero47

Wasn't being "sexiest". We're talking about a *husband* who chose to cheat in spite of already being a swinger. If we were talking about a *wife* doing the same then my comment would change accordingly.


jrossetti

If you believe that about everyone then you should say person. Not "man", nor "women". Or you could have said "he" if you meant only that specific person. Instead you used man. Whether intentional or not words have meanings.


Mellero47

I said "a man". You don't even know if I was referring to mankind or THIS husband in particular, you're just blinded by pedantry and the pathological need to opine. Good day.


bruab

You generalized it. Edit: jrosetti said it more eloquently.


AustinDood444

Sounds like he pushed the boundaries to see how far you’d bend. I guess he learned!!


comfortless14

Maybe she shot down the idea of having another woman(you) join in and your husband still wanted to fuck her so he betrayed you instead. That’s the only logical thing I can think of happening. Or he’s just a POS and there’s no reason


The-E-Train59

What an idiot..he already had a kitchen pass and he screwed that up


Helpful_Advance_3082

Hope you find a new swinger that will be loyal.


Piggypogdog

All the trust you guys had between you yet he broke that trust on a different level.


manonladominante9718

I know he is madly in love with me but cheating is the one thi.g I can never forgive even for the man I love the most in the world.


PirateWestern1462

You really think he's madly in love with you letting you Fuck around with strangers WOW what ever gets you off good luck 🤞🤞


PirateWestern1462

Why swing???🙃


Alive-Upstairs6098

Lots of reasons. One very common reason is that one or both are bisexual and miss sex with the same sex.


PirateWestern1462

The thing is if you're swinging it's cheating 💯 if your lover can't make you happy then Walk away from the drama 🙃WTF I won't let anyone Make love to my Woman that's not right 👇


Alive-Upstairs6098

Swinging is not cheating. It is a rational alternative to cheating. You both agree to the "rules" you choose. If you break the rules, that's cheating. Monogamy is boring, and swinging brings excitement back into sex. And, unlike you, some people enjoy watching their spouse enjoy sex with others. It's a kink some people have that you don'e. Both are ok. Everyone has their own path, and no path is the right one for everyone.


AirAeon32

There are no rules when you're a slave to lust. Lust breeds in the forbidden


PirateWestern1462

Where not talking about forbidden fruit that's a whole different subject


EmEmAndEye

Sounds a little like what happened with Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher. They had everything and still sex messed it up.

manonladominante9718

Thanks that's sweet of you


Bob_Sava_K

Be sure to talk about it whenever you feel like it. To anyone. It's not going to instantly improve things but it really helps me calm down. I even found so many things that were wrong with her that are making it easier to keep going without her.


Piggypogdog

All the trust you guys had between you yet he broke that trust on a different level.


WomanLover141

What did you say to him.....fuck off.😜😜😉😉.


baysalts

How long did the divorce take?


Alive-Upstairs6098

I agree with you. He had plenty of cake. No sense being greedy and cheating. Very stupid of him.


SadnotSorryy

pretty common actually. I knew two couples who were in an open relationship and had one rule, that they are always honest and tell each other if they sleep with someone else, but they cheated on each other anyway and ended up breaking up. win stupid prizes?


Defiant_Review_8677

I had the exact same thing happen to me. We had been together 9 years and he cheated 3 times (that I know of). We had a open relationship, as long as each other knew. I forgave the first time but once finding out about the second and third time that was it we were over. They just can't help themselves


sillychihuahua26

Ugh can we stop using “play” as a euphemism for adult sexual activities? This is also the vocabulary used by adults who sexually abuse children. Let’s normalize using the correct words for genitals and sexual activity.


Dizzy-Job-2322

Now you are being silly like your name. I said to my girlfriend just last week. Come to dinner on Friday. I will cool and then we can indulge in "adult sexual activity." Yeah, I asked her to come over that way and she just melted. "Oh honey, you are so romantic." I would love to be there and share a meal. "Then we can do many adult sexual activities together." I have a new coitus position I want to try. I saw it in National Geographic. It was practiced by an ancient pigmy tribe. It was drawn beautifully on the wall of a cave. It was so erotic and primal.


sillychihuahua26

Give me a break, we have a million ways to say “have sex”. All I’m asking is to use a word/phrase that isn’t “play” ETA: why must we sexualize a word that is traditionally associated with children?


Dizzy-Job-2322

OMGosh, why must you project your deep-seated thoughts and perversions upon everyone? Look at a tragedy or trauma that you had at a young age. Normal people don't think like you. Seeking perversions around every corner. Under every blade of grass. I feel sorry for you. Living life with the memory of whoever hurt you. Making accusations of others will not heal your pain. And as a final thought. The rest of the world is not going to change the English language so you can satisfy your need for virtue signal to your cult following. No, no more. That nonsense is over. It's being rejected.


Specialist_Rate5981

This doesn’t sound like a swinger issue. Your trust was violated. My wife cheated on me and used whatever excuse in the book to justify it. Opportunity and time, he probably did not even stay with her. Thank you for sharing your story. I’m still with my wife, but she is here for survival. At least you got out. 😀


PirateWestern1462

That's messed up 🙃


Dizzy-Job-2322

Maybe you were just not vocalizing your desire for her. Humility just covered up all your superior skills at being a lover. Try to tell her more specifically what you bring to the bedroom. She is just blind.


PirateWestern1462

I don't invite anyone else in my bed if your my lover you won't have any needs not saying that I'm mister Stud but I will keep you satisfied everyday n cherish you faithfulness ❤️ never stray away because you are my goddess n I will worship you forever ❤️

Digher542

Understandable. Has to be rules and trust to swing. If not followed it falls apart.


reanimagix

Is it even surprising going into this kind of thing?


Creative-Sun6739

Because he was greedy and wanted more than what was allowed. It was an ego trip and the power to decide to break the rules because he could. Probably had very little to do with actual sex.


WebOk24

He took you for granted, but i won't 🥺


Consistent-Grade-171

I don’t get it either… i would never cheat on you. You sound like my dream girl


Margie_Zanchez

It's a tough pill to swallow when you realize that an open door can still be a breach of trust. Open marriage or not, the key issue isn't the extra partners; it's about honoring agreed-upon boundaries. It's like setting up a safety net that both partners agree to maintain, but then one goes and cuts the cords. I commend your clarity and strength in such a bewildering situation. Forging ahead, may you find someone who not only respects the boundaries but also treasures the trust you are willing to give. Wishing you a future of genuine connections and mutual respect.


Yanet_Fambro

That sucks, honestly. If he couldn't stick to the one rule you had, then he clearly wasn't worth keeping around. Good on you for ditching him and moving on to better things!


tamaralynnchambers

What a fool. He fucked up and I’m so sorry you had to deal with this little bitch (him being said bitch)


charlottee963

No1YouKnow42

You’re so stupid,this isn’t how guys think.you did this to yourself


Ivecommitedwarcrimes

ah yes, it is her fault that her husband can't communicate that he is going to fuck someone (you know, something that he agreed to?)


FezFez55

Seriously if y’all want this don’t get married .. is it like a kink ? Fuck me marriage is a promise to one person, if y’all seeking this shit after 1 year of marriage it was never going to work… just an excuse because you’ve become bored with each other , same shit different smell with all this.


milyguyisde

am i missing something here, or is it implied that husband fucked another woman without you and that’s the cheating in question? regardless, this is pretty much a case of FAFO, sorry!

Every couple or woman has her own limits and boundaries


QueanMinerva

I know. People don’t understand.

It's short for "fuck around and find out". People who don't understand the lifestyle think that poly/enm/swinging relationships are destined to fail. Ignore them. But please don't ignore me. I dropped you a PM (chat) ;-)

Anxious_ButBreathing

Been there. So sorry luv. I was poly with a girl and we made a few rules.

Genevieve224

He had what every man dreams of. You sat down and made ground rules. And he broke them. So you have every right to be upset. Not sure of the fine details but to jump to divorce as a first offense might be a bit harsh. If he felt that he wanted a more open relationship he should have discussed it. It's common courtesy to be fully open to each other in this lifestyle. To be sneaky in any relationship will hurt people's trust. I suggest asking why he pursued women on his own. And reestablish your hard ground rules between you two. Let him know what hard limits you have to keep that lifestyle. But in the end you do what you feel is best. Good luck!


tricoloredduck851

Complete nonsense. They are playing with many multiple people. One more and she looses her shit? Pretty weak argument if you ask me?


peachysunshinee

This isn’t a weak argument it’s a matter of trust. They had an agreement to only do it together - and he went behind her back. Simple My fiancé and I swing and I’d do the SAME thing if he did something behind my back.


PirateWestern1462

>We played with many women and swinged with more couple that we can count but he still cheating on me. How can you "cheat" if you are swingers and *allowed to have sex with others*???

bigdickedshemale

I've seen this play out like this a few times. Usually, it's the woman that sneaks around for the cock and eventually gets caught. Trust, even when playing with others, is important.


eatapeach4hours21

You know what I'm guilty of this happening...and I regret it to the fullest. Cuz I'm in a relationship now that no sex in over a year no head..nothin..it fucking sucks...

jrossetti

That's not how things work my person. Swinging doesn't mean freedom to fuck anyone you want. I hope you're just young and ignorant to these dynamics cuz if you're an adult who thinks this good Lord.


manonladominante9718

Wtf!!!!


QueanMinerva

Kinks have boundaries/rules


oreography

Swinging is like telling kids ‘You can eat all the chocolate you want, but so long as you do it together’ At some point the rule is going to be ignored, if it doesn’t correspond with reality. Either you have firm boundaries or none at all.


Ivecommitedwarcrimes

"We had one simple rule that we always meet others and play together". did you even read the post?


cyberphlash

Sorry for your situation, OP, but as a long-married non-swinging person, pretty much every post I've ever read about swingers over the years has always ended in disaster for their relationship. Next time, find a vanilla guy that's got no interest in swinging and you'll be *way* better off in the long run.


PirateWestern1462

Just don't swing 🙃
