Monogamish

At heart you're monogamous, and you like it that way — one partner, one home base, deep and primary. But you don't see openness as all-or-nothing. On rare, agreed-upon occasions, a little room outside the relationship feels healthy, not threatening.

This is monogamy with a release valve: the security of commitment, plus the honesty to admit that “forever, never anyone else, no exceptions” doesn't have to be the only way to be devoted.

• “Rare” needs a shared definition — vague openness breeds insecurity.
• Exceptions work best when planned together, not improvised.
