Hacking Love: Deepening Commitment Through Open Relationships

Ep 26 — How to Discuss the Lifestyle with a Reluctant Partner! Plus, Surprise Run-Ins with Neighbors & Co-Workers in the LS? 😱 🥸


Listen Later

In this episode, we start with a totally relatable email from a listener asking for advice on how to approach the topic of opening her marriage with her (currently reluctant) husband, whom she adores.. 💌 Her questions are likely some that many of you have too--especially if you're new to the idea of opening up.

🙋🏽‍♂️ What happens when it's the MAN who's hesitant? (HINT: The approach is the same regardless of which parter it is!)

💗 How can you create a safe space for conversation without pressure and create more honesty and intimacy in a marriage--regardless of whether you play right away (or ever!)?

😰 How do you deal with jealousy and the fear of losing your partner?

😱 And god forbid, what if you run into someone you know at a lifestyle event?

We dive deep into real talk on what worked for us, including how to set boundaries, build trust, and avoid common pitfalls.

💥 Key moments: Aiden and Anna both share how the initial fears they had when opening up have shifted, and Anna discusses her curiosity about separate dating. Plus, we explore playful strategies (like card games and fantasy discussions) that can open up intimacy and turn up the heat, without pressure to involve others--yet.🌟✨

📲 Don’t forget to leave us a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review to help us reach more listeners!
