Polyamory: The state or practice of having more than one open romantic relationship at a time.

One of the biggest arguments against gay marriage is "If we allow this, shall we also allow polygamy? When is too far?" So I'm curious as to what you guys thing?

So please state your view! :3

I think it makes things more complex, I mean, one of the parts will want exclusivity eventually.

I don't see how gay marriage and poligamy are related at all. Ô_Ö

I completely agree with tsuto, gay marriage and polygamy are two completely unrelated topics that many and the right of marriage for the groups should be independent of what happens to the other.

I agree too -____- I just meant their "argument" led me to wonder what you guys thought of polyamory.

Tsuto: I can see that happening because people tend to be possessive and jealous, but that's not always the case, and I can see it being a possibility for some people.

I agreed with Tsuto and Ironskintribe...
Gay marriage and Poligamy have nothing to do with each other!!

Personally I accept gay marriage, but I'm too selfish for Poligamy...
If people can do it, sure why not?? But not me!!!

Looking for this!!!

I'm interested to see what do they think or their views on the poliamory relationship they are on. Ô_Ö

Yeah, it may work for some people, but isn't that more likely friends with privileges or something like that?

Goodness...it's hard enough for TWO people to have a happy/healthy/whatever relationship, I just can't see adding more people working out very well (maybe in certain rare circumstances, but...).

I'm not against it as in "it's evil!!", it's more a case of "uh...just sounds too complicated & difficult to turn out well...".

The sister of a high school friend was involved in a "tri-couple"; she & her husband plus a woman who started out as the wife's close friend. At the time I heard about it, it seemed to be working out fine, but that's been years & years ago.

I do not accept...Polygamy is wrong, just plain wrong in my eyes. Stick with one person, treat them with respect, I doubt if they love you that they'd love to know that you're with other people(unless they're just sick in the head...)

Ah! Our school has a polyamory group: linkie

I haven't been to any of their meetings, but I would like to go and see how it works for them!

To me anyway, I think if you love a person, than you want them to be happy, sometimes no matter what it takes :3 Also I'm sure if all parties are willing to and want to, you can treat more than one person with respect! XD

I accept other peoples lifestyle, but that doesn't mean i go with it myself.

Yeah my point too is that someone will end up being jealous and cause a big mess. _ I think it would cause too many problems (not to mention domestic fights, some ppl are scary @_@) and seriously why would you want to have two relationships at once?! thats kinda retarded. jesus imagine the drama @~@

I mean really it wont kill you to date one person at a time.

"Man, because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then he dies having never really lived."- Dalai lama

Who am I to dictate what people do in their own time and relationships?

I don't really care how people live out their lives.

But on the other hand, I do think it's kind of selfish, seeing how it is almost exclusively the male with several wives, rather than the other way around.

And when polygamy is connected in anyway to Joseph Smith, I disagree completely.

I can't say much though. People disagree with my lifestyle just as much.

To be honest I am in a Polyamorus relationship with my wife and she is the one that has the other partners. I do get jealous often times; however, on the other hand we have better communication and work out a lot of our issues in a more healthy fashion now because we have had to be more open about everything. While I am wired towards monogamy and have never wanted another woman (She is my first and only). I still love her and want to remain with her. It is difficult to explain. LOL and something that I never thought would come up here.
