Currently starting one. We met in a non-traditionsl setting; she has always desired a polyamorous relationship, but had always tried to fit within a monogomous one...an obvious mis-match. We have had many discussions about the importance of open and honest communication with EVERYTHING and have been able to do so since we first met about 3 months ago. With keen awareness of the stumbling blocks of a poly relationship, we plan to keep our communication open and check each other's feelings as we continue to grow our relationship.

I have always thought that it was wrong to be with more than one person at a time, but recently the idea of being in a polyamorous relationship is becoming hard to resist.

oh yes. I just started having one. I never wanted to have serious relationships, and there were two guys that wanted to have sexual relationships with me. I pretty much thought, why not? and gave it a go. so far, it's working out ok

first off, LOVE your username bsg ftw!

i've been in a poly relationship for over four years now, very happily

About 5 or 6 years ago my husband and I were in an adult toy shop in Reno. The girl at the counter said that if we were looking for something fun to do that we should go check out a local bar that turns into a swingers club a couple nights a week. Having never been to anything like that we decided to go and see what it was all about. It was both shocking and amazing to say the least. We were sitting at a table, visiting with a couple we had just met. The wife was a hot tall blond about 40. As we were talking she reached over and undid her husbands pants and began giving him a blow job right in front of us and the conversation never missed a beat except when she went fully under the table and her now bare butt was extending out between my husband and I because her dress had hiked up.
We decided we would come back again and maybe try to have a little fun with other folks watching. We had a great time and actually I rode my man off in front of a bunch of total stranger s. We still didnt open up and swap or include others though. After a year or so of my husband sugesting that maybe i should try a threesome with a friend of ours i finaly said what the heck and did. This was a mfm by the way and it was one of the best experiences i ever had. Having two guys at the same time giving you total and undivided attention is an awesome experience. Since then I have had several threesomes with my husband and other guys. He says he really enjoys watching me getting it on and getting totally serviced in every way possible. We have also opened that up for me to have fun on my own. I have had a couple of super hot pool boys now and no... I dont have a pool darn it -but you can get way naughty in a hottub or the back of a ford excursion. My husband has even limo driven me around now a couple times while I am playing in the back with a friend. Also a huge thrill! I have never had feelings beyond friendship and just sex between any of the guys ( or the couple gals) i have played with. I love my husband and our understanding is we both have to know and agree if its someone I want to play with. It lets me have a little fun on the side while giving my husband the pleasure of knowing, watching or playing too. It also has brought a great level of trust between us and made our sex life off the hook. I know its not for veryone but for us it works.

Please do yourself a favor & find someone you deserve who will love the way everyone should be loved.

Yes. My husband and I have an open marriage. In the past I have found I am happiest in a triad, Im at my best when I have both a wife and a husband. For now we are both persuing individual interests until we find the woman that will be our hopefully long-term wife.

indeed, to each their own

I was in relationships like this for many years, up until recently, where my partner and I have decided that because he is a bit of a jealous person, and my other relations were making a decision to move across country, which I had opted out of, and we split on mutual and friendly terms, that it would just bet the two of us, which it has now been for 10 months.

To be honest there are things I miss about such types of relationships, however, I am incredibly happy with the way things are and plan to keep them this way. The biggest bonus to being in such a relationship was that what one individual may lack in general or for the time being, another may make up for, it helps prevent some of the little fights couples may get into, but if you are dating someone who may have jealousy issues, or if you are not able to spread your time wisely among everyone, it can become very difficult.

I am currently in a poly relationship. I love it. Ive been poly for years and my gf is starting to explore it herself.
