I believe marriage is between anyone who truly love each other. And if it's more than two, then so be it, who am I to stand in the way of true love.

@theowl: To YOU! Luckily we don't have to go by that ;)

@theowl: It's not always about the lust, about the sex, you can genuinely love more than one person, it's not an alien concept.

@theowl: What about the people who DO truly love more than one person? And manage to stay with the both of them for the rest of their lives? It could be real love, and it does exist. It's just not "normal".

even the multiple marriages have struggles.. theres that one on tv. that mormon guy with like 4 or 5 wives.. one of the wives is getting a divorce. its hard having just one relationship but many is chaos. like that saying you cant serve two masters youll love on and hate the other or youll spend more attention on one than the other.

@theowl: Polyamory is not your definition of "real love", however that does not invalidate its' existence, reality, or sincerity; nor does it declassify those who share open-relationships, open-marriages, or mutually-consensual extramarital affairs as "not in love".

We are all rightfully due respect, regardless of understanding, agreement, or empathy, towards our romantic and sexual preferences (wherein no non-consenting party is harmed, etc).

Simply because you are salty over what I can only assume is a bad experience with a cheater or affair, does not equate to having the power or ability to write-off the preferences of others.

Sit down and stay in your lane.
