I personally think it's unrealistic in any relationship where there is love and mutual respect.

Strange. I'd say monogamy is pretty unrealistic in any relationship where there is love and mutual respect.

At the end of the day jealousy is pretty universal.

Not only is it not "universal," but it's completely and totally incompatible with love. Love is about the happiness of the person you love while jealousy is pure selfishness. The two are anathema to each other.

I really don't understand guys wanting open relationships. I know guys are expected to want to F every girl they see, but just because it's expected of you, why do you have to comply? Having an open relationship might have its pluses, but being with one person is so much better. When you do something stupid, you have someone by your side to help you through it. That alone seems to be worth it. I can understand being wary of long term relationships because so many people are morons and don't understand how to have a mature relationship with someone who's not hung up on her ex/not mentally stable/a high school drop out working at wal mart, but if you find a good girl without issues, and work on having a mature relationship, you're set for life. I seriously don't understand men sometimes.

Have you been married for a while? Do you have kids in the picture? How long have you been with the same woman in an open relationship?

Sounds like you have all the answers, and I'm just trying to get an idea of how far along in life you are in the relationship department.
