Should I have an open relationship?

<p>As some of you may know, I am in a relationship with a Persian Jewish girl who's graduating high school this year. But now, in my college, I found an Arabian girl whos from Syria (I think that's where she's from). She's really nice to me and such and I usually find her in my statistics class. After getting to know her more a few days ago, I find her very attractive now. My question is can I both date the Persian girl and the Arabian girl at the same time given that I tell the Persian girl and we set up some limits? I don't know if the Arabian girl is dating anyone at this time though.</p>

<p>Pick one and date her.</p>

<p>It’s not like you have to tell either of them about the other one. Just keep it open until you choose one. There’s no law saying you can only date one person.</p>

<p>If you don’t like the jewish girl enough to be faithful, then just dump her ass.</p>

<p>No sense in holding up a facade.</p>

<p>I agree with B0okshelf. I mean yeah you could bring it up with the jewish chick but that’ll probably result in her dumping you. Or maybe she’ll be chill with it; hopefully you’ll be chill with the jewish girl seeing another guy otherwise that’s just selfish.</p>

<p>@Stopaz there’s a difference between dating someone and seeing them, at least to me. I don’t see a problem with “playing the field” but when you’ve actually got a girlfriend, you owe it to her to be honest. If you fall in love with someone else you gotta tell her.</p>

<p>I see. 10char</p>

<p>

uh…polygamy, sir?</p>

<p>Too many nationalities to keep track of…</p>

<p>If you’re already in a “relationship” then either break it off and go with the other girl or stay loyal…</p>

<p>So my answer? No.</p>

<p>^^ Polygamy is marriage. Dating =/= marriage. </p>

<p>I was in a three person relationship for a short time. It’s only cool if all parties involved are OK with it. If they’re not then you need to go with the new chick. You obviously don’t like the Jewish girl enough to be faithful.</p>

<p>In this case it’d be polyamory.</p>

<p>I heard it’s a great way to get STD’s, just in case you’re trying to collect them all.</p>

<p>I don’t know what I think about this personally (I’m more of a monogamous type person), but I do have a friend who identifies as polyamorous. For a while, she was dating two people at once, and all people involved were aware of it, though I can’t vouch for how happy either of her partners were with the situation. </p>

<p>I think the only circumstance being with multiple people at once is acceptable is when everyone is completely informed, aware, and okay with the situation. If the girl you’re with currently is not okay with you dating the other girl you’re attracted to, then it’s absolutely not acceptable to attempt to be with both.</p>

<p>One thing I wonder though is do you love your current girlfriend? If you don’t, and you just want to be with both for twice the action, then that’s garbage. If you legitimately feel a real emotional connection to both, then it’s somewhat less clear. There are some who say that some people have the capacity to be truly in love with more than one person. I don’t understand it personally, but I won’t straight up say it’s wrong because that happens to be what the culture I was raised in believes.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>You might not want to call her that :slight_smile: Arabian is a horse, you want to say “Arab” with a person. She’s Arab, not Arabian.</p>

<p>Actually, I kind of like the Persian girl a little bit more than the Arab girl.</p>

<p>If BOTH of them are fine with it, then it’s OK. Otherwise, you are just being a total *******.</p>

<p>Edit: Woah, a censor? It’s not a really bad term either.</p>

<p>“Actually, I kind of like the Persian girl a little bit more than the Arab girl.”</p>

<p>That’s your answer right there. If you like one more than the other, why bother with the latter?</p>

<p>^ cuz he wants to hit two birds with one stone. imo deserves to get dumped by both.</p>

<p>"Edit: Woah, a censor? It’s not a really bad term either. "</p>

<p>I personally don’t care but it kind of is. Just think of what comes out of one.</p>

<p>The mere thought of this is nauseating.</p>

<p>i got an idea.</p>

<p>how about you date the Persian girl. get a french man to date the Arabian girl. later, on, find a a Chinese girl to convince the Persian girl she’s lesbian - and have them date for a bit. In the meantime, find yourself an Italian girl. Have your Chinese butch lesbian chick kill off the french man… and then invite the Arabian girl out to dinner to get her mind off her murdered boyfriend. Bring along the Persian girl, Chinese girl and your Italian girlfriend unbeknown to the Arabian girl. Then have a huge orgy with all of them! Alright YEAH!</p>
