Voop! Voop! Voop! Non-sequitur alert! That one doesn't even begin to
make it as a valid statement. First off, you don't take another lover
because you "need" another lover; second off, a relationship had best
be based on needs other than sex if it's gonna get anywhere...if your
partner has no need of you out of bed, you have a problem.
 
>If she was a mature responsible adult, then she wouldn't sleep around.
 
Having an open relationship is not the same thing as having a lover that
"sleeps around," although I most sincerely doubt I will be able to make
you understand that. In any event, that statement doesn't hold water
even if you /do/ accept the idea that if your relationship is open your
partner will "sleep around".
