This was discussed on the the Montel Williams show...and he did good to illustrate as well. I fall within this belief to an extent, excepting when it comes to sexual deeds. I believe one can certainly be poly-amorous... however, I am not sure that I would agree about sharing sex with multiple partners - even if one is poly-amorous. That is probably where I would draw the line.

I did not see the Montel show, but I would have to say that if it was handled anything like his other topic I would say that he highlighted the salcaious aspects and sex of it all and not the underlying emotional root that are there.

Here is the thing... if you ave had sex with more than one person, you could say you are polyamourous and if you enjoyed it you could say you are polyamourous. Would there be so much of a difference if you were to have two relationships at the same time and love both equally?

We are taught as we grow up that we love one person at a time and that to do otherwise is shameful. But is it really shameful? No, just different. When is it ever wrong to love people?

No, we are all polyamourous, we just do not know it and have been brought up in life to be otherwise.

As I had discussed with you last June, I am very open to loving more than one person at a time -- and, I do. Just not sure as I would be open to having sex with more than one person at a time.

I tend to have sex within only one relationship at at time. All those others that I love, I am not having sex with, but I still love them in a unique way. This is because I view sex as being a more intimate process that goes beyond just loving another person or two or three or more!

So, would you say that I am polyamourous or exercise polyamory still in spite of not sharing my most intimate pleasures with all those I love????

Polyamory is not about the sex... it is about the emotional tie. There is often sex involved, and if that is the case, then it is what it is. But if sex is not involved it does not make it any less so. Back to the mother example. So yes, you could be polyamourous without the sex. In fact you could be haivng sex with a primary but not you secondaries and love them all just the same.

I knew that.... Isn't it great to finally put a name to a belief one has had throughout their lives????
