Welcome to the "NEW NORMAL..."
A poll released today shared a truth some find to be stunning, but others find to be a sign of the times...
25 percent of Americans say they are INTERESTED IN HAVING OPEN RELATIONSHIPS.
Don't take my word for it, friends, I'm Toby Knapp, I just report and share the facts I read from all of the data they throw at me all day here in our iHeartRadio studios... but, you should take the word of this new YOUGOV POLL which underscores these findings!
Now, it's not surprising to me that dudes seem to be more into this than the ladies. I was surprised to see that millenials are the ones who are most into this idea of "Open" relationships.
I will say that I do understand people who are "ENM" and I don't think it's a "cop-out" for being afraid of a commitment. What is right for some isn't right for all, and I think happiness - and perfection - mean different things depending on who you ask about "things." Seeing the results of this poll brings up a bunch of questions... and I'm not sure how I'd react if a partner asked for an "open" relationship... but I would try to be open-minded about it, you know?
Because the truth is... life isn't the same for everyone.
Welcome to the new normal, friends... Welcome.
