Today, my boyfriend randomly decided to let me know that he believes there's really no such thing as cheating, unless both partners explicitly agree that the relationship is monogamous. And no, he wouldn't agree that ours is. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend says he is not cheating, because he has "not met them." He just follows half-naked women, likes only the most revealing pictures, and messages them in private. But yes, he is "not cheating." FML
Today, my now ex-boyfriend actually tried to justify his cheating by saying it doesn't count as cheating if the girl's bisexual. FML
Today, my girlfriend randomly confessed to basically having a "phobia" of monogamy. But don't worry, she defensively assured me she's never ever cheated on me, even though I never said she had, so I guess that's okay then. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years told his friend that he decided a long time ago that he would never be faithful to a woman. I was sitting next to him. FML
Today, I confronted my boyfriend, suspecting that he has been cheating on me during the past few months. He vehemently denied it. Then told me it would never happen again. What? FML
Today, I discovered that my fiancé and I had vastly different definitions of monogamy. Don't worry, he only did it when he was mad at me to remind him how much he loved me. I found out from my best friend. FML
Today, my boyfriend admitted that he thinks I'm cheating on him, with my brother. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, because he didn't trust himself not to cheat on me. What? FML
Today, I asked my boyfriend why he didn't believe in marriage. His response was, "I believe in marriage. Just not marriage with you." FML
Today, after three months of going back and forth between staying with my boyfriend and leaving him for someone else, I finally made the decision to go for the other guy. When I told him, he admitted to never seeing himself with me, as he "doesn't do cheaters." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

at least he's being honest that he doesn't want to be in a monogamous relationship. if your not ok with being in an open relationship then time to move on.

in my experience (rather than by random decision), there's really no such thing as a relationship, unless both partners explicitly agree that there is a relationship. I suggest the OP should decide that this should no longer be a relationship.

Then you should tell him it is not an open relationship unless both partners explicitly agree. And you don't

I really think it's the other way around. If you're in a relationship to begin with the assumption is that you're exclusive, that's what a typical relationship is. Although if you have both specifically discussed the idea of an open relationship and agreed to it then great. He's just obviously trying to justify cheating and I'm going to guess what he's done in the past. If he was so opposed to monogamy he should have brought this up with you before getting into a relationship with you and misleading you. Sorry OP and good luck moving forward.

Tell him a relation is not a relation if he screws around. So either faithfull or single, his choice
