In my opinion, they are not one in the same, nor even close. |
txduo I totally agree with you on the differences between open marriage and cheating. The two are not even close. In the latter (cheating) someone is deceived and gets hurt. In an open marriage everyone is in agreement with what is going on and no one gets hurt.
