What the fuck is polyamory?

[Maude967]

So I hear all these terms: polyamory, poly this poly that...  Isn't it just people wanting to fuck around? Or is there more to it? One relationship is a lot of work anyway, why would I want more than ONE?

I guess it's more about being open to having a relationship with more than one person... This is probably not for everyone though. Based on some friends' experiences, everyone involved should be sharing the same vision of love and understanding of sexual relationships. I mean, people with a tendency towards monogamy end up hurt, if they don't manage to make the switch... and they usually try, when they are in love with someone who is a step ahead in this sense... Achtung baby - risky game! 

On the other hand... What I personally like about polyamory is that it somehow implies that a person has the capacity to love more than one individual. And WTF should be wrong about that - right???

I know a threesome, not for fucking only, they live together, as we know it just from couples..., with 3 very special and nice people.

There's a pretty good article in the magazine that talk about Polyamory and what it is. It definitely cleared things up for me!

I think this is very personal. Maybe there are people who just want to fuck. If you find some people living it, they are hopefully open to being asked about their way of life and relation. Why don't you ask?

Most writers only guess....
