35-year-old demands open relationship from wife he has been with since 15, flips out when she insists they make a video voicing their mutual consent: 'I relented just to get it over with'

Ethical non-monogamy has been a hot-button topic surrounding romantic partnerships for a few years now. An increasing number of people are becoming interested in opening up their relationships, but it is a move that takes a lot of planning, communication, and most importantly, mutual consent. 

While there are plenty of polyamorous individuals who feel like the lifestyle is right for them, they are not necessarily the majority. Most of the time, it is not enough to simply argue that it is better than cheating on somebody. Both halves of a couple need to be enthusiastic to open up their relationship and have a contingency plan if things don't work out.

Needless to say, these are things that many people ignore when it comes to exploring non-monogamy with their partner. It means that it is an experiment that often goes wrong, and at its worst, it can jeopardize a long-term relationship.
