\"\"<\/a>A Canadian sex therapist and author of \u201cA Happy Life in an Open Relationship<\/a>: The Essential Guide to a Healthy and Fulfilling Nonmonogamous Love Life\u201d believes the secret to a happy, long-term relationship is being nonmonogamous. She argues millions of people would improve and strengthen their marriages and relationships if they accepted that \u201cfor many of us, one partner cannot meet all our needs.\u201d She explains how being in an open relationship allowed her to finally explore her bisexuality and kinks.<\/p>\n

\u201cI knew I was interested in women because I always liked watching lesbian porn,\u201d she says, describing her first \u201csensuous\u201d sexual experience with a woman. Being in an open relationship also allowed her to explore BDSM, since her partner \u201ctried kinky sex but doesn’t like it.\u201d She enjoys spanking, dirty talk, handcuffs, hair pulling and mild, pleasurable pain with many partners, while her partner also has casual and longer-term sex partners. \u201cWhat we do with other people does not matter,\u201d she writes<\/a>. \u201cIn fact, my joy is seeing him happy in other relationships.\u201d<\/p>\n
