    I think the expectation that you cut off your friends when they do something you don’t like is a little out of control though… I’ve definitely lost friends over the way they treat their children but there are some steps before that imo.

      Not all ppl in an open relationship agree on what it is though. Ethical non-monogamy and cheating treat ppl very differently and I reserve my right to shame accordingly.

        Who the hell is bringing their DL mistress to a family barbecue? If she’s there, there is no stinking way his wife doesn’t know about it.

        If the wife doesn’t approve of it then yeah, he’s pressing the self destruct button on his marriage and bringing drama into a space it doesn’t belong, but I think it’s way more likely she knows what’s up and is cool with it.

    Ostracizing used to work because we needed community. Now they will just go on the Internet and find hundreds if not thousands pro approve what they’re doing.

    And whatever the “village” did for a person can be bought with money. And people don’t really do free work for you anyway, maybe your immediate family but that’s about it. So people are more and more individualistic.

      I used to work with a married guy who brought his girlfriend to company parties. He was so open about it, I wondered if his wife knew and was okay with it.

        I work with a guy and him and his wife are definitely in an open relationship, I barely know the guy and I’m fully aware of this fact however there are people that have worked with this guy for nearly a decade and they whisper about it, like yeah she knows, y’all are idiots.

        Work parties also seems super weird, but bbq makes me think friends and family. Of course if the married couple is open or whatever then sure.

    I do this with Trump supporters in my family.

    Not trump voters, Trump supporters. To this day, they don’t regret their vote, and they actively support.

    Human garbage.

      Starting fights is an easy way to get tossed in jail A lot of people just need to calm T.F. down or maybe just go talk to a doctor and get some prescription pills to make them less antisocial
