My adult son is poly. I admit that as a traditionalist this was a shock and hard to take at first. But ultimately he is an adult and this is his decision. He does not tell me how to live my life (married and monogamous) and I don't tell him how to live his life. As his parent, my job now is to support him and his decisions and this is what I do. I love him!!
And these kinds of people beg for that kind of attention because they think people are jealous. Girls in a relationship with one guy and several other girls have no respect for themselves
Why do people care what others do? I mean I can't do what they are doing cuz I don't want to share plus I don't like to split my time between people. But if these people are happy then why would you care? It doesn't hurt you personally.
@@sunnyoverthemountain5029 To me it is nice because the only examples you see in the media tend to be pretty over the top, extreme (e.g. reality show stuff, for shock value). It makes me feel more represented to see people you are professionals, academics, etc. Since there aren't many average examples of polyamorous people around, it makes me feel less comfortable being open about my own relationship structure.
My kids have 40 direct ancestors who were polyamorous under Mormon Polygamy, more than 100 years ago. It's not new. This is so much better because there isn't religious coercion, and no alpha partner, everyone has an equal say and the freedom to leave. So I understand why people do it. My ancestors who did it are very respected by their descendants. They did some incredible things. But the overarching patriarchy of religious polygamy made a lot of people miserable. For consenting adults, more power to them!
Mo partners, mo people to talk about your problems with. And whos to say those who have one partner have less problems than those with two? If theyre happy leave em alone.
This is an open polyamorous relationship. They can have relationships with others. A closed polyamorous- would be a relationship between 3+ people where they've agreed not to take more partners. A regular open monogamous relationship is where they basically only have sex with other people
I see all these people trashing these relationships, but I bet those same people cry for weeks when they get cheated on. Monogamy is NOT NORMAL in all cultures.
I don't think everyone can do this... but as I am getting on in age, never been married and no children(YES THERE'S A MAN OUT HERE WALKING WITH ALL THESE QUALIFICATIONS)... this LIFESTYLE FASCINATES ME!
Rightfully so... It's the way of the world and also mentioned in the bible that way, so duh lol! One man can get hundreds of women pregnant. Can one women get pregnant by hundreds of men?🤔 Case closed🤣
Polite Q No,they look weird full stop! Most of the people that I have seen embark on such “relationships” are generally not considered to be very conventionally attractive or social!
I think this was a good video. It really showed how polyamorous relationships are like. 2 different dynamics as well. Being polyamorous myself I appreciate the video and the courage of the people involved.
This could be a great option for me to get into, but how does this work, does all three people in the relationship involved with each other romantically? Or can it be like for example one person being romantically involved with the other two and the other two are not involved romantically. I’m a female who is only attracted to men so for me, the best way to do this is to be with two bisexual men, I just couldn’t be with a woman romantically.
Fear the party of dead Your relationship with each of your other individual partners is different and has different boundaries. Your new partner doesn't have to have to have a relationship with your primary. But in my experience at least knowing and being friendly with the primary partner is the best. Who knows they really could become friends. Each relationship is different so you really have to talk about what everyone wants and what expectations you all have for eachother. Good luck!
+Anthony Ferriera I'm not Patricia but I can say that if you are looking to date couples most cities have poly meet up and poly date night groups. Look on meet up for options in your area.

These kinds of people always seem keen to prove to everyone that they are having more fun and are happier than they really are, like adult performers (I know a few of them too).

These are very smart people and with feet on earth so it’s cool that they are having a relationship with other people as such, humans are monogamous by nature so they are just embracing their nature, wherever feeling they have, and clearly you can see who is most dominant on these cases. Funny but true.

Imagine at the beginning of this segment that all of these people were Trump supporters and all had MAGA banners in their houses.

This is what happens when people are ruled by the flesh. Not everything that feels good is right, people. God gave us all free will to choose right from wrong. Sadly, more and more people are making the wrong choices. This is why the gate to heaven is narrow. Only few people will go through.
How come every few years, a news show presents polyamory like they uncovered some crazy new thing the kids are doing? It isn't that strange, odd or new anymore and hasn't been for decades.
They are very grown people and would have done so with or without the publicity. If a person wants to condemn a lifestyle that should be with pedophiles or rapists not consenting adults!
As long as people are okay with there lifestyle behind their doors, I don’t mind or care, it’s not my business at all. Just do not force it onto me as a way of life, because It’s against my believes and values about relationship. My two cents
If these people are happy with it, who am I to tell them it’s wrong? But for me personally, I feel like it cheapens the marriage. Why even get married then? I can’t IMAGINE sharing my beloved husband with any other bitch. NO WAY! Nor could I imagine WANTING anyone but him!
Just a passing observation: I never see alpha males in poly relationships. They all seem rather effete and beta. Which begs the question, will an alpha male share his woman? I doubt it. Do I care about what others do? Nah, not really. If this is what they want, they are not in my way.
They treat this as a very new thing, but I'm finding that the term 'polyamory' was coined in the mid 1990's, but we see the concept going even as far back as the Cod of Hammurabi, the first known written laws.
I am in a polyamorous relationship. It’s fun, but I have to admit that I would never want to be in a polyamorous relationship where there were two guys and one girl living together. The first couple had it right 😂
I have no problem with gay marriages or poly marriages. As long as they are consenting adults, who cares?
