Do you think it’s okay to have lovers if you are married?

I’m thinking of artists and other creative types like frida kahlo who was married but had many lovers?

As to if it is "okay" to have extramarital lovers, well that is a matter of personal perspective. Generally, society says no, but such is the way of our conditioning. Now on a personal level, I would suggest that it is okay indeed. This not solely because I have strayed myself at times.

That you invoked creative types is not surprising since I believe there is an inherent restlessness that comes with being a creative. This I know well and have indulged far too often. In my own experience an affair can either be a boon or a determent to a marriage, all depending on the approach.
