I've always had a healthy dose of skepticism when it comes to gay monogamous relationships due to the fact that all gay relationships inevitable come down to two things:
1. One partner ends up cheating
2. The relationship turns into an "Open" relationship with differing Rules and varied times in which it happens.
I guess my question is, what are your feelings/worries about things like this happening to your relationship?
It is a real concern for many of us and to some it is just an "Enlightened" take on the evolution of relationships/marriages as they have changed over time, some sort of anti-hetero excuse. I myself am a serious no nonsense monogamous gay male, always have been always will be but the future prospects look bleak even from those who have claimed to be as I am. I've met couples that have been together 40 years and didn't start an "Open" policy until about 20 years into their marriage, that's why I say inevitable with time.
*Side Note* I have lived/visted in many many different cities/towns around the world and have met a wide variety of Gay Couples, some in very small rural towns, others in big cities (Think: Houghton, MI - NYC) and have yet to meet a couple that hasn't done one of the following above or has a "play together" policy (though the frequency is either very rare or all the time)
Sorry for the wordy question, just thought it deserved a little explanation because I didn't want you to view it as a lurid or inappropriate question into your private lives.
