For some, certainly. As I think both of us have said, it's not for everyone.
I would contend it is not for the vast majority.
Word man. We see things a little differently, that's fine! I don't see having multiple partners as something that breaches trust or creates jealousy in me or my partner, so this works for me and my partner. If it's different for you, then that's obviously a different situation :)

Except in my case I have been more physically involved and my partner just chatting more. Both of us really don't look for others though, we just don't put restrictions on each other. Polyamory is more than just sex. In real poly relationships the guy not having sex with other people would not frown because he is independently happy.

No, you have basically no experience with relationships. Pephary is just following a different-than-most style relationship. I wouldn't choose to do that myself, but hey, if everyone involved in it is happy and nobody is getting hurt, then more power to them.

Yeah, I know it can work for some folks. I was just being silly. And I wanted to see if I could make that diagram work. Although I guess if you're using a different color forum style it might be broken.

That's cool to hear that your relationship situation is working out, though. Props.

You people are nuts and some of you have zero clue what commitment is. Commitment is a pretty big part of the equation of love.

I mean do what you want, but it's called cheating for a reason. If you're cool with your counterpart fucking the brains out of someone else, you should probably watch it as it takes place.
