RE: Expectation management.

The absolute gold standard that is never to question at all in Ecuador is officially monogamy. Even the idea of not doing so is outrageous. At the same time, unofficially, everyone is betraying everyone. That was the main reason for me. I don't like those kind of secrets, or feeling like I have to keep something a secret.

In the end, it was as you said. There was no need. And even though she agreed, besides not even having it cross my mind, we're so good as things are that I don't want to get into that these days, either getting hurt or feeling weird. Maybe it'll happen in the future and we'll have to figure it out, who knows.

That's so true. Total hypocrisy. I like that approach - an open marriage or relationship is an honest one, not necessary a sordid one.
