Have you seen the promos for movie Hall Pass? It is a movie where a married guy gets the permission to act single for a weekend.My thought was wow! Really? Would a wife Truly give permission and if so just for a weekend.Me? I am not married. But If I Had to marry , it would Have to be an open marriage. Meaning he could have mistresses and I could have lovers.But this seemed like a great question so I thought I would ask you all! Would you let your spouse have a wild single-like weekend?

I could not do this for a weekend, let alone a day friend. As although I am not married, my boyfriend and I live in a committed relationship, and this is something I can allow as I would not do so either.

You avatar stopped screaming! She is happy! I'm happy she is happy, lol! Forgive me, I am not one of those who sees a huge difference between being married and a couple who is truly connected! I said spouse because of the movie the guy was married. I totally understand your stance. Thanks for your response.

I could *never* allow something like that. I mean don't get me wrong, if he wants to go spend the weekend with his buddies or his brother that's totally fine with me. But sending him away "single"?? You've got to be kidding me. I'm *way* too jealous for an open relationship. More power to the people who live that way, but it's definitely not for me. The closest I get to that is the occasional threesome, but there are lots of rules and agreements and stuff.

I don't think so! If a couple has mutually chosen to have an open relationship, that's one thing, but for a married man to get to act single for a weekend, let' just say I can't imagine any wife putting up with that and if she did, she'd have to have some serious self-esteem issues. If my husband even hinted at such a thing I'm afraid I'd have to pull a "Bobbitt" on him...lol! For those of you too young to remember, Lorena Bobbitt was a wife who...well, her husband was an a$$hole and she bobbed it and tossed it out her car window! Unfortunately, it was found and reattached. Annie

Wow! I am not marrying material. Not only would I let a husband go , but when he is gone, I would take lover too! But if it were a boyfriend I would break it off so he could be free. Obviously he feels trapped if he needs a hall pass.

Remember, I'm assuming here that the couple in question don't have an open relationship. I mean, if part of the deal was the wife could take a lover while the husband was gone, I'd say that's up to both of them. I can't imagine myself ever being in that type of marriage but I sure would never judge anyone who makes that choice. Annie

I've never been married, but for something like this to work, it would have to be a strong relationship. The two would have to trust each other and their decisions... For me specifically, I think the only circumstances and reasons that would need to happen to let me agree to this would be simply to prove that the two are meant for each other. The guy would go out and act single... but hopefully come home realizing that though that freedom was nice, he didn't actually enjoy it, or he realizes how much he would rather be with his wife. Now, maybe that sounds a little far fetched, but if your partner would prefer being with other women over you, then the relationship can't be that strong to begin with.
