I started sleeping with other women & think it saved my marriage – my husband wasn’t sure but now he loves it

WHEN you find the person you want to marry many might assume that they are your partner for life, but one woman wasn't quite ready to close the door on dating yet. Alice Lovegood, 29, revealed that despite marrying Matthew, 32, she still wanted to date other people after discovering she was polyamorous.
The experimental wife says that turning her relationship polyamorous was the best move she ever made to improve her marriage. Alice says she always felt that her life was missing something as she desired an emotional and sexual connection with more than one person.
The sex educator told how being polyamorous is something she felt she had to do and was excited that her husband, Matthew Lovegood, 32, was ready to go on that journey with her. She said: “I feel like I've always been polyamorous, but I never really understood what that meant or had a word for it, or that it was even a viable option.
“Then I started to learn more about polyamory as an option, and finally identified with people so I spoke to my husband and after we communicated we opened up to it.”. The couple from Bristol, UK, took the leap to become polyamorous after nine years of being together.
Early last year, they sat down to discuss how they would navigate their relationship and decided that opening themselves up to others was okay as long as communication, consent and care were upheld throughout. Alice told how she lets her dating life flow naturally as she meets people she likes rather than using dating apps to find mates.
