Polyamory?
Anyone else non monogamous here??
What's your opinion on polyamory?
Do you support kitchen table polyamory or do you also think that having separate partners who never meet and you have different priorities for also counts? (parallel polyamory)
What about open relationships?
To anyone monogamous, what's your image of polyamory, or would you ever consider it?
I don't identify as polyamorous but I'm no stickler for labels. I just say I'm not monogamous. I don't have superficial relationships either, I just have multiple ones at the same time, sometimes long term sometimes short term. Sometimes they know each other sometimes they never meet. I just look at how I'm attracted to people and what I want to give to them individually, if that makes sense. I feel that love is a spectrum.
How do you guys feel about jealousy?
I've been thinking about that emotion lately. Not in the sense that I'm jealous often, just that I find the types of situations that make me jealous interesting, and how it usually has to do with me than the other person.
Like, if I'm jealous, it's not because I hate looking at someone I love being with someone else or them talking about someone else they love, but under particular circumstances if we don't have good communication I get insecure that they might leave me for the other person, and that's what triggers my jealousy.
I just have these thoughts: "what if they prefer them over me?" and then, when I realize they choose to be with me because they want to, and that person is a completely different person from me so what I'm thinking doesn't make sense, my jealousy goes away!
But Idk, it's very interesting, whenever I feel jealous. I've been having these jealous moments lately.
Just things I've been thinking about lately that I wanted to share and hear how others feel about them. Any thoughts?
