Would you ever consider it?

If your partner speaks to you about it, how would you respond?

i guess it comes down to who moves out, and i guess it would have to be me. i've seen it at close quarters and it bleeps big time. only the sociopath emerges happy and intact.

most of the couples I know who did this over the years have broken up and the kids had a shuttle life.

Those who didn't split up are working so hard at being a normal couple now that it is painfull to visit them.

I don't like them, although someone very close to me (not hubby :D) is in what they call a 'polyamorous' relationship. They think it is very modern and avant garde while I look at the recurring themes of passion and adultery throughout history

It is not possible to have this relationship with a person you love.

If you love someone you cannot watch them bonking someone else.

I had a friend do it and she ended in a mental home for a long spell.

I like watching when the little post thing goes from grey to red at the 10th post. Who needs multiple lovers when you can get thrills like that on the eBay forums!

Hubs and I were watching something, probably some sort of trash telly, inside the house lived the married couple and the woman's boyfriend. It looked very weird to us, they thought it was fine. It only got weird (according to them) after the one time the three of them went to bed together. She claimed to love both men, I don't see how someone can love more than one that way.

I am far too precious, possessive, jealous, etc. My husband is mine and if I'm not enough for him, there is a door. Same goes for me.

I like to know where it's been before I entertain the thought of entertaining it.
