  • Oh lordy. Well, the polyamorists I've known (not many, but some) have some luck but from what I understand it's pretty difficult and EVERYTHING has to be communicated VERY clearly to make sure everyone's on the same page. One person I know who's polyamorous was crushed when his fiancee decided she wasn't. One girl I know is having a commitment ceremony with her married boyfriend soon. She's been with him for five years and it seems like it's good...not sure how the wife feels about it though. Plus I think the girl secretly wants him to leave the wife, which will never happen, in my opinion. Other people seem to make it work great...but it's sure not a choice I'd make. Things can get complicated and messy REAL quick. I have enough on my hands with one guy...more than one would make me actually insane.

  • This would never work for me, but I could see how some couples with very high tolerance levels, great communication, and low levels of jealously may be able to make it work successfully. I agree with Holly that one guy is enough to handle! Now I'm inclined to read "The Ethical Slut" to dive in further to Easton's P.O.V.

  • Go on, grab our attention with a great title
    I skimmed through "The Ethical Slut" a few years ago. It's interesting reading and actually has some good advice for any kind of couple. But yeah...the poly thing ain't my scene.
