Standards & Transparency

A woman friend who is much younger than I am was telling me that she wants to spend time with a second lover. I responded by saying that there is no double standard. If she is going to choose to have two lovers she will need to allow her lovers to do the same. I asked if she'd talked to either one of them about the other.

For many years I've had the idea that I could have a transparent and honest relationship with a man/lover. That we would be totally honest. I realized this is impossible when ego reigns because ego, as a part, is self-centered. Mature love is the only substance that will allow transparency and clarity between parts.
