Hey /adv/. Would you consider dating someone who is in an open relationship if you were more interested in monogamous relationship?
I have a friend who I have I known for a few years now that I'm very attracted to. Would date them in a heartbeat if it wasn't for their current relationship. That being said, their relationship is open and they have expressed interest in me. I guess I'm just trying to decide if I'm comfortable with the open relationship part. Last thing I would want is to lose a friendship. Do you guys have any stories or opinions to share that might help?
Don't do it
If you're coming to us neckbeards for advice, you probably don't have a spine worthy of handling the jealousy

Look up unicorn in open relationships
Hint: unicorns don't get treated well

Is it possible to just accept it and pursue relationship anyway? It's not ideal, but I really like this person.

A person who could would never need to ask.

Sure, we will await your tears and weeping in 3 months

It is technically possible, but you would have to be very strong-minded and -willed.
Be communicative with those 2 in regards with relationships that you (might want to) develop

I'm not this anon but I'll keep it simple.
You both have representation of what your relation should be, and you don't agree with her on that. Knowing that, she will not change for your ass unless you're driving her crazy and unless you are making all your expectation explicit.
Once you do that, there will be no guarantee that she follows you in a close, intimate relationship and you will suffer from it.
> tldr : You shouldn't. You could give a try which will probably lead to nothing.

Thanks. Will keep that in mind. May need to do some soul searching.

> the nigga just ignored the two other answers telling him to not do it just to feed his own will
Why coming here if you're not okay with the /adv/ice ?

I didn't ignore the answers. Just didn't feel the need to reply. I'm taking everything said into consideration. Even looked up unicorn in regard to poly relationships.

He wants us to say
> Go for it, anon!! :3 she'll totally love you if you do this for her and dump her current boyfriend and she'll marry you and you two will live happily ever after

Funny, but I'm not that naive.
