Any polyamorous (ethical non-monogamy) folks here?

Question

My husband and I are very happily married, and polyamorous (ethical non-monogamy). He currently does not have a secondary (she moved out of state), and I have a boyfriend and a LDR. What does your polycule look like, and how is polyamoury and pregnancy working together for you?

Haters, nay-sayers and self-righteous assholes need not respond.

Answer

Caoillian I really appreciate you taking the time to rationally and methodically explain all of this! I am not Poly, and I don't think it is for my husband and I, but I am infinitely happy for you and the love and joy you have found! Love is love in whatever form it comes in, and should not be forced or limited.

Answer

I am not polyamorous...but I am very interested and curious in how these relationships work. I think ideally, on some level, it would be great to have multiple partners, but...how does jealousy not take a toll?

Answer

i am way too jealous for my husband to be polyamorous... but for me, i would love it. im selfish, i know. 😩😅

Answer

My wife and I are both bisexual and polyamorous. Dating is a chore though, because most people think we're swingers, but it isn't the same.

Answer

I love this! I am not poly, however my husband and I have discussed the idea,  still researching and figuring out how it would work best for us. The idea of sharing the love is beautiful. Thank you for your openness and willing to share😍

Answer

So I have a coworker who is now 6 months pregnant and she told me from the get-go her and husband are polyamorous. She alluded very early on and throughout the office that her boyfriend was he father and not her husband. It took me a while to piece it all together but she initially moved up to be here from Georgia and her husband was still in Georgia whole looking for a job. In the meantime she had a boyfriend up here and then he got her pregnant. Husband isn't happy but it seems like they are working through it since she's having the baby and all. It was complicated and awkward because she initially said, "I'm pregnant" before you could do congratulate her she would lead with "we aren't happy about it" and then piecemeal an explanation from above. Complicated and therefore it's not for me.

Answer

My husband and I aren't poly, but his parents are. His mom has a boyfriend and his dad has a girlfriend whom actually lives with his parents. His mom and her are like best friends! They seem to have a great relationship. They are all pretty good friends actually

Answer

Soooo. My girlfriend and I of ten years just got into a polyamouras relationship with a man. It's a little different, we've only had threesomes with girls  before, but we really care about him! He's is kind and so loving (and great future baby daddy potential). We are just so scared because it's been a DECADE since we were with a man! We both want to please him because he's amazing but we are scared! When I was sleeping with men I never gave head because I thought it was gross! I'm a lot older now and while I still think it's gross I really care about him and want to make him feel good! Any advice for two lesbians? 🙊🙊🙊

Answer

I'm completely monogamous, but this is an interesting topic. I knew lots of polyamorous people in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, many of them weren't open and honest about it with their main squeeze.

Answer

I have a couple of friends who are. I'm so jealous of being able to have that mindset of.. non jealousy, haha. I can't wait until polyamory is destigmatized. The level of shit my friends catch is insane.
