Okay, So some might classify this as more of a rant, but here goes...
Several months ago when my partner and I started dating she said that she wanted an open relationship. I stated that I was not be comfortable with the
idea.
Regardless, I agreed, having no intention on my behalf to be with someone else. At the same time, I knew she would end up being with someone else. I
knew that when it happens and when I find out, I would be distraught about it. It's something I never could cope with.
Anyway, back to the point. Skip forward several months until now.
As far as I know, she has not been with anyone else. At a party last week I was drinking heavily. I decided that I had enough, and should probably
head on home. On the way home I bumped into one of her friends and we got talking. Next thing I know, we are at her place. It's needless to say what
happened there, but not long after I felt too guilty and left.
The next day my partner had been told what happened via the friend. As a result she broke up with me, and severed all connection.
I know that nothing can be done. What I am asking ATS is the moral dilemma here.
Does she have ANY rights to end a relationship for an event which was permitted by her?
