Should I or shouldn’t I?

Hi, my wife and are still very much in love and are actually still having good sex but we both feel there’s a little something missing. So, we have just recently started an open relationship and we’ve both newly joined IE in the last couple of weeks or so. We’re both looking for quite different things from IE but obviously ultimately it comes down to wanting to get intimate with someone other than each other.
My wife seems to be getting loads of attention but me, not so much.
My question is, do you think the fact that I’ve mentioned in my profile about being in an open relationship is putting a lot of ladies off.
Should I not mention it? Or is it something else?

Just your opinion, which you’re obviously entitled to but thankfully you don’t know me, my wife or our situation and how it actually helps many couples.
You just stay your happy self and I wish you all the happiness you deserve and hope you find that special someone to make you even happier XX

I don’t really understand your comment.?? Yes there have been some tears for us both but all’s well and good.
Casualties?? X

I think you have both realised that the fantasy is never the same as the reality…as most of us predicted… it all ended in tears…..as much as you ‘think ‘ you can reduce the casualties the true reality is ….HUMAN EMOTIONS ARE NOT TO BE MESSED WITH ….

Hi guys, a little update for you. The tables have turned.
I’ve actually found a very nice lady to have fun with and my wife is struggling a little too tie a man down.
Yes, there has been a lot of mixed emotions on both sides, tears have been shed but with plenty of communication and keeping things going together and still enjoying each other I think all’s good with us right now. Obviously things can change, dynamics change feeling and emotions can still get a little out of control but with the communication being the most important thing to get us through it the future looks good as far as I can see.

I think saying you are in an open relationship helps, as shows availability.
But in general, any online dating, stats show girls are more picky.

I'm certain that's part of the case, but women always get more attention on any site. You might find what you want on a swingers' site.

Good for you both and hope you both enjoy some fantastic sex with others.
As a man I would have thought there’d be plenty of women on here who wouldn’t be put off by your situation. Might even be the case that another couple are attracted and would get together. My advice - don’t despair and I’m sure you’ll have more than one opportunity.

I think this is refreshing and honest, if unusual. I don't know of course but I suspect the fact that you are concerned with your wife getting more attention means that perhaps you aren't as comfortable with the arrangement as you think? As always a bit of honest dialogue may help. There is of course the simple fact that males tend to be more obviously and 'instantly' thirsty than females (though everyone is of course different). Can't fight 4 billion years of evolution 😁

If the OP is honest, he'll come back and tell us it all ended in tears!

These things are never what you think they are in reality and human emotions are never straight forward ... people react differently when they are confronted with the actual situation.
