I feel like poly people assume everyone wants exactly what they have are just too scared. I think that’s probably projection. Im personally happy mono but glad that others can enjoy what they want that makes them happy.. personally the poly’s I’ve met in real life have appeared

I'd like a shot at ploughing a "smorgasbord" of women....but the wife could easily outdistance me in that field. Easily.

One of the problems I've seen in my friend group is that the woman could easily find more people, but even with her help the guy couldn't find more women unless they already knew them as friend or something. Poly seems pretty tilted toward hypergamy.

I'm usually happy in whatever the agreed relationship structure is, but the option is always there if I'm in a mono relationship. 🥰🥰
