    Swinging fits neatly into what I’ve described. You get new sexual partners, spread your genes around to more people/babies. With more babies with new people, the stagnation doesn’t set in and so the desire to leave doesn’t manifest in the same way. Now you’ve got me curious about the divorce rate for swingers.

    my name is going first on the research paper.

    Fair

    Edit: the divorce rate among swingers is either 95% if you listen to pearl clutching Christians or “significantly lower than national average” if you listen to dubiously researched random articles from a search engine, so take what you will from that, I guess.

    My dude this is a shitposting community I didn’t put any thought at all into my comment. I’m just musing on some general ideas I think about. This isn’t like, a well researched position or anything. But I’d guess the timer starts when you become exclusive and resets in major life events. If you just date then you get ten years before you want something else. If you get married before that, then that is the big exciting change and resets the clock. Then kids come along and resets it again but then you’re all out of resets.

    Bickering like an old married couple isn’t just a meme.

    Serial monogamy (as I understand it) is jumping from short term relationship to short term relationship because of an inability to feel secure with your partner.

    I’m talking about forming a meaningful bond with someone for a decade (or a bit longer) and when that relationship gets stale you move on.

    Some animals are truly monogamous for life. It is effortless for them to stay together because that is how their brains are wired.

    Humans are not like this or divorce and cheating would be practically unheard of. I just think that if we were really monogamous creatures it would be a lot easier to stay in a long term relationship. Instead, half of marriages fall apart after about a decade.

    The dink lifestyle is indeed pretty great but has its own problems. At least with kids when you ask “what is the point of it all” you can look at your kids and think your life has meaning. Dink’s don’t get that though, and after a while routine sets in and things get boring and couples start looking elsewhere for meaning and purpose.

    11 years isn’t really that long, though is longer than average. There are exceptions to every rule and if you’re someone who enjoys lifelong monogomy and your partner is on board then I hope you have a happy life together! But speaking in broad generalizations for humans as a whole, I think 10ish years is where we normally start looking for someone new, but we’ve been pigeonholed into this idea that you’re a failure if your marriage dissolves for any reason, and a LOT of people are GREATLY unhappy for it. That’s my ultimate point I guess.
