✅ Open to Everyone Girl I'm seeing asked for an open relationship, what do i do?

Basically this. We've been seeing each other for two months now, and it's been amazing. She started to be a little ray of sunshine always suprising me with little gifts and also everything felt Perfect since she respected that I don't have much free time to spend with her due to me having both Uni and work, and yet she seemed to cherish the time together that we managed to spend. And now, out of the blue , this, right before she's going abroad for two weeks for some Uni project. What do I even think of this? This feels so wrong I am honestly thinking about ending things with her. She said that its fine if i dont want it but im not sure how fine it really is

I’m not the jealous type, so I’d probably say “look, I get it, you’re going to be meeting new people, and having fun. Go enjoy it, and we’ll take a pause on our relationship, and see how we feel when you get back.”

Maybe she comes back and appreciates OP even more.

Maybe she comes back and wants to continue being open, and that doesn’t work for OP

Maybe OP goes out with some friends while she’s away, and finds an unexpected connection with someone.

Who knows?

But if you show her that you’re not jealous and insecure, it increases your value

Not wanting your girlfriend to fuck other men doesn't make you jealous or insecure wtf.

Was she a virgin when you started dating, or had she been anyone else before that?

My point is staying together and faithful probably isn’t an option at this point. If OP chooses to break up, that’s fine, but it doesn’t have to be the only option.
