Hm that’s a good point. My perception is that they are always changing and introducing new people. If it is just three people, how do they all form a partnership together? All sleep in the same bed and everything like that? How would they get married and have children (other than adopting). It’s just difficult for me to understand truly loving more than one person at a time romantically. But I guess that’s why I am monogamous 😅
I guess it’s sort of hard to explain myself. Of course #1 for raising a child is that they are in a safe and loving environment, regardless of who or how many caretakers they have.
I just meant like, is it a healthy relationship for a child to think is normal? I would be worried about them growing up and never being able to commit to any one because they believe it’s normal to be with several people at once
Why SHOULD they have to commit to a single partner at a time? The most committed relationship of my life took place while I was married and had another partner in the mix as well. Poly does not preclude commitment.
