Except it didn't work for them. He and Selene got divorced awhile back. And maybe that's all for the best, I'm not judging. All I said was I'm worried about the original writer's marriage. If he and his wife both consider their marriage a non-permanent thing, or think they're one of the tiny, tiny percentage that can make an open-but-long-term thing work, then that's fine. My own grandmother married her last husband with the vows "until we don't feel like it anymore." Then they stayed together for 30+ years until her death. It can work. It's just rare, and in my experience one partner isn't nearly as cool with it as they say they are, but they don't want to be the prude.
