do you people even know the meaning of the phrase 'in an open relationship'? i see all these people, putting their relationship statuses on facebook as 'in an open relationship' and i seriously doubt that you people actually know the meaning of it -.-

An open relationship is a relationship where one person does not own the other. The couple are not exclusively seeing each other and can date, flirt and hook up with other people should they wish to do so.

a relationship between two people who can't commit to the relationship

just plain ol' friends with benefits.

mmhm. that's the real meaning, in case you didn't know (: soooooooo do be sure about the meanings of these kinds of things before assuming otherwise, because you'll just be giving people like me extra entertainment to brighten up my day :P

no really, no insult intended. my purpose is to educate fellow human beings about the dangers of misused language (:
