There is no I in threesome

April 05 2021

Has any one watched this "doco"? I am reluctant to watch it as anytime there is something about polyamory relationships they are always negative. What are your views on poly relationships as defined in the urban dictionary as -The practice, state or ability of having more than one sexual loving relationship at the same time, with the full knowledge and consent of all partners involved. Have you experienced it? Is it something that your believe is sustainable? Shells xx

    I’ve read about it, it ends badly. I feel like that’d be a pretty common story in the polyamorous community, open relationships can be difficult but generally they stay loving the same person and that makes it work, when you’re falling in love with multiple people things are definitely much more likely to get really messy. I haven’t experienced it and don’t think it would be sustainable for most. Kudos to those who make it work though, it’s a nice idea in theory.

    Because “love” itself is a relative and complex emotion, and there are many different levels that it can exist on.

    I got pretty close to the poly bit for approximately 10 years. It takes a lot of understanding and in the end becomes somewhat difficult to maintain. In it is infancy it’s definitely mutual fun but can be distracting and a lot of work. There is normally a partner that’s not a 100 % comfortable about it all the time. Hey if it works all is good. Like mentioned it’s towards and ending poly relationship but hey all breakdowns in relationships/friendships can be painful

    Like any relationship, it works until it doesn't. Most relationships end sooner or later and for a multitude of reasons.

    I’ve read a lot and watched a few different shows online about polygamy. All very interesting. I can only give our opinion on it . It’s 100% not for us . We are totally okay for others to live that way . I’m not convinced it would be easy to maintain . Having all parties involved happy , content and comfortable with all situations. I love my life and my husband . I couldn’t imagine fitting a third or more into the mix on a full time basis. We had a female friend constantly bring it up with us . She wanted to move into our house . She kept insisting it would work and be a fabulous idea . I loved her as a friend but definitely not in the way she wanted . Our friendship ended . My number one priority in a relationship is my husband . Ax

    When I read “polyamorous” I hear “SCHEDULING NIGHTMARE”

    Sounds fun and exciting but I think the reality would be a different story..
