    The question seems common but you can never get right or wrong answer either.In my opinion some wrong things can make people happy and some right things can make you mesirable your whole life.

    Just be responsible partner is the best way to make things simple and have a happy relationship.

    There's absolutely nothing wrong with a plural relationship like you're describing, in my opinion. AS LONG AS there's open, honest communication and agreement all the way around. As far as I'm concerned, whatever two (or more) consenting adults do in the privacy of their own homes and lives is *their* business. Who cares if the neighbors snub you or you get crosswise looks at the church picnic? It's your life, your relationship, and you have the right to live it the way you want to.

    Nothing wrong whatsoever in my opinion... but then I'm polyamorous myself. I like being in close, committed relationships with multiple people at the same time. The thing I've found to be necessary is good communication, as opposed to merely a lot of communication. Being open and honest is good, but brutal honesty promotes brutality not openness.

    Poly isn't for everyone though - it takes more work, more trust, and secure individuals to be a workable lifestyle. I wouldn't give it up though, for me it is more rewarding than any other type of relationship.

    Nothing whatsoever, I'm in a poly relationship and have been for five years, there are special considerations to explore and understand, jealousy is one of the biggest confrontations many people face and when faced and understood helps the individual to better understand self.. poly is not like swinging for we rarely have threesomes,, polyamoury means more than one love visit that website on an earlier question

    I don't think it would work.. but this all depends on the people involved. If they are all up for it then it should work. but I think over time giving to much attention to one will be bad on the other. Just dont be in a relationship. Just be mutual and date.

    There's nothing wrong about it as long as all the "participants" are consenting adults. Now, practically it's probably not easy to make it work...

    why would you want a 'fixed' plural relationship? why not just remain unattached and do as you please? that seems simplier.
