You should first talk to your partner about why an open relationship would be beneficial for both of you. Discuss the potential advantages, such as more opportunities for intimacy and sexual exploration as well as increased trust and honesty in the relationship. Additionally, you should reassure them that an open relationship does not mean that you are looking to replace them with anyone else, or be emotionally unavailable. It is also important to have a clear understanding of each other's expectations and boundaries around openness so that neither of you is left feeling uncomfortable or confused.

Try to approach the conversation with respect, be open and honest with them about your feelings, and explore why they may be apprehensive. Focus on communicating what having an open relationship would mean for both of you and how it might benefit your connection overall. Provide reassurance that their concerns will be heard and try to come to an agreement that suits both people.
