I don't think it's that unusual to desire more than one partner at once, whether you're married or not. But it's difficult to make it happen so that the couple is equally satisfied. If they're not, regret has a way of eating through a relationship until it's finished for good.
If not for jealousy, there would be a lot more satisfied customers in the sexual arena.
I think most people are afraid once they act on their fantasies they'll be let down and their dream will be ruined. It's like our WIPs; does anyone ever feel like they're subconsciously delaying finishing that first draft because once it's all down on paper, it's over?
