Even in a healthy loving relationship there can be moments of weakness. The important thing is open communication between one another. When I say “open communication” I mean, OPEN!! Each of you have to feel safe talking to one another about any thoughts you many have. Often in relationships one partner or the other considers cheating because over time their likes and needs change and they worry if they tell their partner they won’t accept it. Insecurities are a strong emotion and it can hurt a relationship without either partner knowing the other is dealing with it. If we truly love and accept one another we should be open to each others fantasies as well. Make sure your partner knows that you love them and you won’t judge them. I recommend that you open the communication that allows each other to feel they can voice your individual fantasies as though you were cheating with your partner. Talk openly with them as if they were a stranger at times and you are telling them things they never knew. Strangely at times it is the excitement that is needed in someone. If you role play and act as though you are dating for the very first time and that you have to keep it quiet or your partner (who is actually this person of course) will find out. Often people cheat only because they want to feel that excitement of a new relationship or to have someone to just listen to them and give them undivided attention so the feel heard. You may not agree with this thought process but from my experience with married people online, the two common things I hear is that they aren’t connected sexually with their partner (male and female) and that they just can’t communicate and tell them the fantasies they have for fear of them not understanding. As I said, Cheat with your Partner and allow them to tell you their inner fantasies no matter how intense. If you two can’t discuss these things and come to a common agreement how can you have passion and true connection. Get out there and Cheat With Your Partner and Be each other’s fantasies!

An interesting idea. What are people’s thoughts on this? I assume that everyone has their own take, based on their own experiences. I am curious if people think this would be helpful and healthy or a step down a dangerous road. (or maybe even just awkward as hell).

There are always different opinions and comfort levels and desire levels! The key is to be sure to communicate with our partners! The healthiest of relationships will be open to give and take! We all need to step out of our comfort zones from time to time but honestly if the relationship is a good one your will know each other’s passions!
Thank you for the reblog and the great though provoking comment! HUGS

Very interesting idea. Though it is, of course, not a new idea, it is worth exploring for many people. Most species are not monogamous. We, as a species, are incredibly complex. Stress can wreak havoc on relationships. Ahh the possible avenues for discussing this topic! lol

Oh yes I did consider various options on this one myself! This was the one that stood out the most for the monogamous readers! I will have others in the future for my Polyamorous Readers as well!

Good to hear you will be posting more. I am always happy to reblog things I think my readers will find interesting or helpful to them. I simply do not have the time or energy to keep up with writing enough posts to keep the information flowing to them on my own. This idea of dating your spouse has, I already noted, been discussed many times before, but I see it as more than just reigniting the spark. its a way to live out your shadow, as jung would say. its a way to get back to caring about what each other has to say and what each other thinks. people change over time and we can get so caught up in the stress of day to day life that we forget to check in with each other. at some point we assume we know everything about the other person without entertaining the idea that they may change or there may be topics we have never discussed and dreams we don’t know exist. This is quite applicable to the sexual aspects of a relationship, but also very much to the more intimate emotional aspects as well.
