Relationship Talk: Would you allow your mate to see other people as long as you have "Open Communication"?

Can you see yourself accepting the fact that your significant other is with someone else?
Over the last couple years we've started to hear more and more about the so called "Open Relationship", which is described by couples as an "openness" with your husband/wife or girlfriend/boyfriend, which allows your partner the option to look outside your relationship for intimacy as long as there is "Open" communication. This view is completely contrary to what the traditional monogamous relationship would be described as. BET talk show host, Monique has admitted to allowing her husband the option to be with other woman, if he desired to. She states that she prefers to know what her man is doing; because it's the inevitable that men will be attracted to other females and she prefers that her husband of 25 years, is open and honest about his feelings with her. Actor Will Smith and his wife, Jada Pinkett have also admitted to having an open relationship, and they describe it as having a "free ticket", which would allow either of them one chance to step outside the marriage to be with someone else. To some that may be a detrimental move, because what happens if your partner is not satisfied with only one night? What if they start to develop feelings for the other person? What if they start to desire the other person more then their mate? This is why, I don't believe that it is a good thing to teach contrary beliefs to our society. What's the difference from a wife or husband having an affair? Is it worse because they didn't tell their wife or husband? We've been exposed to so many public affairs within the last couple years, like Tiger Woods, Jesse James and numerous American politicians. Regarding the topic of open relationships; there has been a lot of negative backlash on these views, but Monique and these other couples who have been successfully married for a number of years, say that this so-called 'openness' is what has brought success to their relationship. I personally could never see myself accepting that concept into my own personal relationship. I agree with openness and communication but, marriage is a spiritual commitment between two individuals. It is a commitment of fidelity and respect. I guess nowadays....people are doing what works for them. But, this new concept of marriage and relationships is definitely setting a contradicting tone towards what conventional relationship values are and think about it, If your partner wants to be with someone else......How deep is their love for you?
