    It depends on you. Can you live with your boyfriend in relationship, knowing that there is another girl, who your bf kisses and have sex with.
    It’s like a threesome but way bigger than that, because it wont be just one night.

  • If he just wants to have sex with another girl, that's one thing, a lot of times is ok and even a good thing.
    But him saying he wants another girlfriend is another. Time to dump him.

      It's not a good thing nor is it okay.

      • If she were ok with it it would be ok. And she should have the right to have sex with other guys. Just don't tell him about it, cause guys can't handle it.

          It's a natural response when you figure out your girlfriend is fucking someone behind your back. Relationships are based on trust. If you agree on something that's fine, but it's not okay to do something with such importance without mutually agreeing just because you think you're entitled to it.

        It would be ok if she was ok with it, but obviously s he's not, so the relationship can't be ok

    He dropped the "I want another girlfriend" line? You wouldn't happen to be Mormon would you?

    To me no it's not normal. If I were you I'd tell him it's me only or goodbye.

    It's pretty normal for guys to want more than one woman. It's pretty normal for women to want exclusivity.

    I suppose your boyfriend deserves some credit for being honest about it, but he's made clear what he wants. If you're not willing to be just one of Mr Studly's women, then it would be wisest to say goodbye to him. Odds are good that he'll go for what he wants behind your back if you're not willing to be knowingly involved in that sort of relationship.

    If your family thinks he's wonderful and there's even a hint that they believe the break-up must be your fault, tell them exactly what actually happened.

    He sounds like a total jerk, my girl friend is my whole world and I am committed to her and will never let her feel that way about me <3.

    He wants someone else. I'm sorry to hear that:/ You're no longer a priority to him

    Dude that's fucked. And that's coming from somebody who lives in Utah. Maybe I just don't understand, but if he wants something other than you and what he has now I don't think he's inlove with you. I could never have another boyfriend unless I didn't have feelings for the guy I'm with right now. I think if my boyfriend told me he wanted another girlfriend out of the blue like that I'd dump him immediately. It's just not a good sign for your boyfriend to want somebody else like that.

      He could be still in love with her and want someone else as well, but if she's not ok with that she'd be silly to stay in a relationship where the needs of the two people are so totally different

        No im kidding , but im actually curious in what place do you tell your girlfriend that you wan another one and expect her to be ok with it

        Assuming its not an open relationship

          I don't think there is a place in the world where this is not an issue for the woman, but there are and were certainly many cultures where it is officially accepted. Traditional islamic scholarship generally accepts men to take up to four wives, for instance, although this is today a controversial and debated topic within Islam.

            is it way more complicated than just saying that "men can take up to four wives", there are conditions and rules for that, do more research, anyway, that's not the problem here

            my problem here is that your partner told you he wants to have another girl and you told him you will THINK about it ? was he actually serious?

              The fact that it is more complicated does not change the fact that it is so, and I said myself that it was more complicated above, so you are just failing at your reading abilites. About the OP post, yes, she may be serious. Polyamorous relationships are a thing in Western society, even though most people feel uncomfortable about the idea. If she really, really likes the guy or feel attached to him, perhaps she may feel it better to think about it rather than ditch him immediately. Only because I or you would not do so does not mean millions of people wouldn't in our place.

      Bisexuality has nothing to do with it as far as I can see: he wants another girlfriend separately from her

        i understand that he wants a girlfriend separate from her but if she is bi she could agree so long as he shares her. even if she isn't bi saying this should spook him.

          Not a good idea unless that's what she wants and the other woman is hypothetical so far anyway. Many men fantasise about exactly that setup, so he'd probably jump at her offer and, like many men, could very well find out that the women are far more interested in each other than in him.
