I understand what youre all saying. My point is more that I wouldnt let it get to that point. If I saw the kind of messages that Lex's W is sending about wishing she lived closer to this guy so he could be her King, I wouldnt be letting her rub all over me. In my mind, knowing about these messages and still allowing this kind of behavior will diminish any credibility that he does have when he says he 'wont live in an open marriage'.

I certainly might be wrong, but thats my opinion, for what it's worth.


It's an extreme case of a celebrity crush. That doesn't meet my definition of an open marriage.

She hasn't left the bed. She is not in a PA or even a mutual EA. This isn't the stage where I would lay down hard lines.
