Bringing guests home for sex is usually not advisable, even in a very open relationship. No matter how passionately two lovers pledge undying fidelity to one another, the unexpected presence of a third attractive body usually provides enough tinder to set off an emotional firestorm that makes the burning of Troy look like a quiet marshmallow roast.
