For those of you who are married or living together, is your relationship monogamous or non-monogamous? Have you discussed this issue specifically with your spouse/SO and do you agree? Or do you feel you have an unspoken agreement?

Are you non-possessive--that is comfortable with the idea of your spouse/SO having other sexual partners or is this idea totally unacceptable to you?

Have you been unfaithful to your spouse/SO? Do you know/suspect that a partner was unfaithful to you now or in the past? How did you handle it--discuss it rationally, leave them, etc.
 
Discussed and agreed, monogamous, (34 years and counting). It was rocky at times, but we weathered the storms.
 
For me and my S/O we had talked about it, and we are going on 5 years togather now, we had our ups and downs, we talk about everything when the time is right, We both found out the hard way that the truth will hurt , a lie will kill your feelings in a heart beat. So we both tell it like it is, and we don't hold back.
P.S. We both have our Lovers, and are good friends with them.

My s/o and I have discussed this subject many times and we both have lovers. His lover has joined us in a 3some on many occasions. I am going away this weekend with my lover and with the blessing of my s/o.
 
Good to see I am not the only one. I will not get in to a 3 sum , with my S/O lover, for I don't like her in that mannor. We have had others we had though.

Personally, my wife and I strive to be monogamous but both of us have slipped up once that I know of--not perfect, but not bad in 30+ years of marriage.

I am not possessive or particularly jealous so dealing with my wife's infidelity was not so tough--also, it was a one-night stand, many years ago. However, she is extremely possessive and jealous and it having a very hard time dealing with an affair she discovered three months ago. I'm not sure our marriage is going to survive this.
 
We have an open relationship, I just haven't gotten around to telling her yet.
