You have been in a relationship with Billie for years now. It was wonderful until you felt like you are both falling apart. Like it was a mess that was piling up. It got worse by the time when she has to go to concerts, while you stay as you try to finish school.
You faced your laptop as you wait for Billie to Skype you. You huffed in annoyance, wondering why is she taking so long. You are about to shut your laptop when her name pops out. You answered it and greeted her with a small smile.
"Hey Billie. You don't know how much I am missing you right now." you said. She chuckled on the other side of the screen before pouting.
"I know. I am missing you as well. How are you by the way?" she asked, moving to the bed.
You took a breath before letting out a sigh.
"I guess I'm fine. School works has never been easy but, I can manage. How about you? How are the concerts?" you asked back, earning a laugh from the love of your life.
"Well, it's been an amazing journey. Gosh, I wish you could see me perfom. I love the energy when I was performing." she explained. You fully support her about being passionate in all of her works but sometimes, she easily forgets your plans. I mean, you can't blame her, but it hurts.
"Well that's awesome! You know that I am always proud of you right?" you smiled, looking straight at her.
"I know." she smiler back. There was a moment of awkward silence before she speaks up again.
"Look, I know being in this relationship is really hard and uhm, I still love you, I really do but..." she trails off, making you anxious to what she will say next..
"But?" you asked.
"I just think that we should be in an open relationship." she said apologetically, making you mad.
"Are you insane? I am willing to be in a long distance relationship but an open relationship? I can't-" she cut you off.
"Hey, just- just hear me out. If you agree to this, we can be in a relationship with someone but our feelings for each other will be the same alright? Maybe we need this so we can bring back the old us." she explains. You stared at her in disbelief.
"So are you suggesting that we should have sex with someone else? Have a romantic connection with anyone? Is that what you want?" you said in anger, tears are forming your eyes. She looked at you with a sad expression, knowing you'll never agree to this.
"I'm not expecting for an answer now but please, think about it. Please. I want us to have the same spark that we use to have. Good night y/n. I love you." she then dropped the call. You shut your laptop and you cried, hugging your pillow tight. Why would she need for us to be in an open relationship?
You called your best friend Bella and waited for her to pick up.
"Hey y/n, what's up?" she said on the other side of the line.
"Hey Bella, I just got off from the video call with Billie." you started to cry.
"Why are you crying? Come on, fill me with the dets." she said. You filled her up about the whole open relationship thing.
"and that's why I got upset and started crying. I know, maybe it wasn't a big deal for you." you sniffed, wiping your tears with tissue.
"Hey, listen to me. It is a big deal for me as well, but try to look on the brighter side honey. If you both agreed to do this it might solve the problem in your relationship with Billie. My boyfriend and I have tried to do that and it went great." she explained.
"Do set some rules, okay? I love you and I don't want you to get hurt." she added.
"I will, thank you so much. I really need somebody to talk to. I hope this works out." you hoped.
"okay girl. If you need me, I'm just here. Bye y/n." she said and you bid goodbye as well before hanging up.
Is this a really good plan to solve the problem?
