When I saw the direction this thread took I debated for about an hour if I wanted to give insight on this or not.
You haven’t seen the black guy slapping the ever loving Christ out of the old white dude that dropped a hard R on him?
This is can be true, or someone cheated and SO is trying to make amends by opening up the relationship, but not all cases of Poly are just opening up a relationship, my fiancee approached me about the idea of finding someone about 3 years ago, and from the poly communities we've found on social media and around the area most poly couples are very committed to their SO's but have also decided together to either open up the relationship where they date separately or together. Our current partner is married, has 3 kids, and her husband fully supports her being in this relationship, and yet they still have a great relationship both romantically and sexually. We got lucky we didn't want to find another married woman, but she checked all our boxes and the communication and trust was there from the beginning.
How does this work? Do all three of you go on dates together? Is it one on one? Is her husband in any way involved? Does he have his own outside couple?
Do you get 2 breakfasts or 1? What happens if, in the process of laying out your suit for work, there's a disagreement about your belt? Do they take turns deciding on who gets flowers, and who makes the apple pie to cool off in the window?
We had our first true date with her Friday, we’ve been texting, talking on FaceTime and phone calls for about 3 weeks. We have 1 true rule if we have sex we do it as 3, originally agreed all dates would be 3 or nothing but after all chatting we are good now with 1v1 dates and can tease and play just no actual sex with out all 3 present. Communication has been key to making this work and all decisions and changes as made as 3. He is completely out of it, but we have chatted with him and he knows all she doesn’t keep secrets from him. He does not have a relationship outside theirs he didn’t want that it was the first question we asked.
I’ll guess I’ll show my old and prude nature but I don’t understand. If you’re going to want to bang a bunch of people why get married. I was a pretty bad boyfriend to just about everyone I dated. Don’t think since I started dating having girlfriends I was ever faithful to one. That changed when I got married because I didn’t want to cheat on my wife. So I guess I don’t understand why be in a marriage but still have multiple partners. Seems like it would be easier to just date a lot of people without having the obligation of a commitment.
Yeah, if someone asks if you want to be in an open relationship, the answer is either yes or the relationship is doomed
I apologize if I’m confusing you with someone else. But didn’t your significant other point a gun at you over the holidays? Hopefully for your sake all the tension and drama is gone, and you guys are solid. Otherwise, fingers crossed your girl doesn’t ever get any jealous impulses in your poly situation.

She has only been poly for about 2 years they have been married for 10 years before he brought it up to her and it strengthened their relationship. Talking to them about it and our own experiences helped affirm our belief in this lifestyle after the the last woman we dated made us want to hate it. We looked back and that whole year dating her, and didn’t realize during that we were basically revenge towards her husband who cheated on her and he never was really comfortable with her dating separately despite what he told us he didn’t think she would find something like this or want to commit to it.
Let’s indeed but if it falls through it will suck, but I will still have my fiancée at the end of day just like last time, and our relationship will continue to get stronger. Be very interesting to update this thread regardless.
