When couples can't navigate conversations about opening their relationship

My wife and I are trying to have difficult conversations about opening our marriage but every time we start talking we trigger each other's insecurities and shut down or fight. We both want to explore this but we can't seem to get past our initial reactions to actually communicate.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The very vulnerability required for honest dialogue about relationship boundaries activates the attachment fears that make such dialogue nearly impossible.
