'Wholesome' Hollywood couple, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith, have revealed that the secret to the success of their 11 year marriage is that they have an 'open relationship'. Speaking to Reveal magazine, Will had the following to say:
"Our perspective is, you don't avoid what's natural and you're going to be attracted to people." he says.
"And if it came down to it, then one would say to the other: 'Look, I need to have sex with somebody. Now, I'm not going to if you don't approve of it'."
The 39-year-old star explains that the couple's open policy has been in place from day one of their 10-year marriage.
"In our marriage vows, we didn't say 'forsaking all others'. We said 'you will never hear I did something afterwards'. Because if that happens the relationship is destroyed."

"Our perspective is, you don't avoid what's natural and you're going to be attracted to people. So sometimes we have the discussion: 'Wow, this or that girl is freaking gorgeous.' I'm not going to say anything to my buddies that's any different than what I say to my wife," said Smith.
Though they have yet to take lovers outside of their marriage, the couple will tell each other if the occasion ever arises.
"I don't know how I'd feel. But I know I would react better than if I found out about it afterwards," said Smith, in regards to the possibility of his wife asking to take a lover.
IF YOU ARE GOING TO POST IT, POST THE CONTEXT. THEY HAVE NEVER GONE OUTSIDE OF THEIR MARRIAGE.

ya sure, it is great to have in an institution like marriage coz than there is nothing which has to happen unnatural or have guilt pangs for both concerned, why not it is an sureal age and best left for like minded couples to handle it.
