    My wife had sex for the first time since we opened our relationship last night. I had the most terrible guttural ripped open panic attack after for hours after I heard the news.

  • @chrisdewild9627
    @chrisdewild9627 Год назад +6

    When you open your relationship, do you feel that you’re just opening a door to more problems? Such as the possibility of one of you falling in love with someone else? I’m currently in talks with my wife about opening the relationship although I’m not the one who wants it. I’m having a tough time with it(even though we haven’t opened our relationship yet) and need to find a way to put my emotions aside. I don’t like the idea of it but I don’t feel like I have a choice at this point. Now I’m trying to convince myself that everything will be ok. We have a great marriage currently. I just don’t understand how an open marriage could be beneficial?

I am no longer married, and now with two partners of different genders, and working through all of these big feelings in both of these open relationships. I'm very grateful for your content as I've taken this journey.

  • @hondafreedom9329

    I guess what is crazy is that I don't think that is crazy to say. It really depends on the context and history of what you had experienced and experienced within that relationship. Perhaps, I'm unevolved, but I can't "get" that. Brittany's story is from a younger person's jealous experience and involves snooping. But I get it. I really like that you shared the feelings you shared going through your jealousy. Honestly, it is impressive that you don't feel these things anymore. I marvel. I have moved through many behaviors I no longer do with or to my partner, but not all. I'm wondering as I write this, why "get rid" of jealousy? I mean, yes, I can see being aware and not going into the depths of despair or pain, but I also think that it can be useful. My 2 cents.

    I had a boyfriend once and he was very flirty making eyes at gals and always going up to women in front of me and my jealousy went crazy of course. It was painful i felt very insecure. And he had the upperhand always saying it was all me as i had a jealous problem. So i couldnt get threw it and the women he flirted with treated me with disdain so i left him. We are still friends occasionally today when run into each other. He is still single today maybe no one else could handle it either. He seemed to need other attention constantly for his needs. He also was extroverted very much and blamed the jealousy on me so it never got worked through. I was an introvert with different needs than him. And i think he was too involved with trying to get energy from others for it to work ever. The whole thing was embarrassing for me and painful. A friend of mine pointed out to me that he was flirting with her right as he was standing there. Omgosh i was trying hard not to be jealous and she saw it and called him out on it. That week i just disappeared from his life and he started stalking me at times. Very strange dynamics and glad its all over. Still to this day i wonder if it was all me. See how it messes you up.

      @guiomardart 2 года назад +10

      I hear you but I don't agree. To me there's an element of money to be expected because this is also their livlihood. This video is really short and presumably the main purpose is letting people know about the workshop. So I see where you're coming from & that it is a big part of this video. But, at least, from my perspective they find a good balance. I'm not on their memeber site- thats not in my budget and this is the way they make money so that's probably always gonna be there to a certain extent. But they do also make free videos on yourtube and I find them to often be really helpful. I guess it would be nice if there was total seperation of youtube from their buisness but I don't think that's very realistic. I still see a lot of love and am grateful for what I have been able to learn from them on youtube.

    @truditrulove 2 месяца назад

    This was so amazing & funny, as I reflected on the things I used to do, when I unconsciously thought ownership of my husband was not only ok, but that I was entitled. I, too, have compassion for the part of me who had insecure & anxious attachment & an abandonment wound. Now, I wouldn’t say that I’m joyously embodying compersion, but I embrace compersion & don’t feel jealous about my twin flame being with someone else, rn. Even if he & I were back together, I don’t think I’d spend a lot of time, or energy, explaining to him if I was feeling jealousy, bcus it’s an aspect of being human that we’ve already talked about & I know that whatever we give energy to multiplies. The way I think I’d handle jealousy now is, moreso, saying I’m working thru some egoic stuff, but that he hasn’t done anything wrong. I strongly believe in owning my own stuff, no victim, no villain, no blame, no shame. So, for me the answer is more self love, more working on being my best version, cus worse case scenario, I’d let him know I wanted more attention. I say worse case, bcus I love a relationship that doesn’t compromise, or limit my person, by having boundaries that would “force” him into doing things that he wouldn’t organically do. This is why the poly life is so important to me, for my poly partner, bcus if I’m working thru egoic feelings, I won’t betray myself either & be intimate with him, when I’m not feeling that way. I could relate to you Brittany, when you talked about the ecstatic dance experience, with Conor being intimate with someone else, causing you to not want to be intimate with him, i.e. NO!!! Go be intimate with who you were just being intimate with😩lol I’m not gonna be the surrogate sperm bank. Anyways, yes, thank God for growth. I move thru my egoic feelings, relatively, quick now & aspire to get to the place both of you are at, which sounds like compersion. Thanks so much for sharing!

    Luckily my husband and I communicate very well. Anytime I feel lack for his perceived gain I focus on loving myself and remembering all the amazing attributes I bring to this world.
