I'd certainly agree with Masie that if Marcus found another person more interesting and fun to spend time with, I'd probably be really jealous and hurt. I think that has to do with me being very greedy with the attention of people I care about.
I can see what you're both saying about the instinctual male reactions behind jealously but at the same time, not all of us have instinctual reactions to sex, if instincts were the only thing that affected our sexual desires and emotional attachments to various things, then it would be VERY strange for me to want to have sex with women. I can't reproduce with a women, so instinctively it would make no sense to want to have sex with them. This is not to say it's not the case at all, I just think it's not the case for everyone.
If you're the kind of person who has the ability to remove emotion from sex and use it as a purely physical pleasure, then an open relationship can work. I've often run into trouble for not emotionally attaching during sex and have accidentally hurt some people who developed feelings after a few sexual encounters, personally I'd much rather be hurt than hurt someone else like that, so it can be a bit of a worry. Luckily, with Marcus we're both quite similar in that the experience of watching our partner pleasuring someone else is a turn on. I'd love nothing more than to watch Marcus having sex (or making out) with someone else.
As to what you said about men sleeping with other men being upsetting to a woman, I find the concept as erotic (if not more) than the idea of watching him sleep with a woman. Although I'm positive he'd much prefer the latter.
