cheating is just non consensual non monogamy. polyamory is consensual nonmonogamy. the difference is consent. you need to unpack why you’re worried about that

Some people have the capacity to romantically love more than one person and they find others with the same ability or understanding of it so everyone is on the same page. Communication is key and if that’s not something you can do congratulations no one is forcing you to.

Poly is just forced. There’s always someone getting fucked over

You know you can just not agree to a poly relationship? Usually these relationships are result of two consenting adults, whether they are actually prepared for it is another story.

Bro. My ex literally told me he was divorced. He was actually married and in a poly relationship. So his wife knew about me the whole time and assumed I knew as well. We were together for a year. He had the pass and he still lied, to me and to her (He told her I was “insecure” about their marriage and it was better to keep us separate)

Yeah my fiancé and I are pretty solid and tried being open for a bit. It was fun for both of us but at the end of the day, we just have better chemistry with each other and kinda hate getting to know new people in that sense. If anything, it brought us closer together
