Award-winning adult star Mia Malkova says she’s tried having open relationships, but they always end in one of two ways, and neither of them could be classed as successful
An adult star claims open relationships never work – and she should know because she’s had a few.
Award-winning Mia Malkova reckons open relationships – an agreement between all parties to have the freedom to have Sєx with other people – will always end in one of two ways, neither of those being positive.
She said: “What I’ve noticed is people in open relationships try it out and usually it they either close it back up after a little while or they separate”. On her own experiences, she added: “At the time I had gotten out of a relationship and I don’t know …maybe I was greedy.
“I was having Sєx with people all the time on camera …and I wanted to have Sєx with them off camera”. Mia says she would finish a scene and realise she had a crush on her co-star. “I’d think ‘Damn it why am I married?’”
“So going into the second relationship I was all for the idea,” she told the Stiff Socks Podcast, “and I do think that it can work for people … for a time. I do think that it can work for people like for a time ,” she adds, “at that time in their lives,” but ultimately something will fail.
“It’s really hyperSєxual people that choose to be an open relationship,” Mia adds. But she believes transparency is the most important thing. “I think you can cheat on someone in an open relationship,” she says, “if you do something behind their back”.
Or, she goes on, it still counts as cheating in an open relationship “if you violate a boundary that you had together like maybe like you don’t talk about this specific subject or you don’t perform this particular Sєx act”.
That’s particularly tricky for adult stars. Sometimes, Mia says, she doesn’t particularly fancy a male performer she’s booked to work with, but it changes when she meets them in person: “I think ‘I’m not really looking forward to this’ and then I’d get there and they’d have that little twinkle in their eyes and they’re flirting with you and then there’s the chemistry and everything starts to play a part and then by the end you’re thinking ‘Yeah I get it, we’ll do this again”.
Close friendships between men and women, the classic “work husband” relationship, are always a bit questionable, Mia says. “If there’s something between the two of you …or you’re too curious. If you and your partner separated that’s the first person you’re jumping on”. Even working from home isn’t safe from that problem, she adds, because of the temptations of social media and the ever-present flirty Instagram DMs.
