Non-monogamy is a valid choice that requires trust, safety practices, and ongoing communication, though it is not inherently better than monogamy.

“I'm not here to tell anyone that what I do is better than what they do I am not a polyamorous proponent or any of those things it's just what I do but Steve I mean I'm a sexer I'm I stand up here telling you that I can teach you how to be better in bed than you are”

Polyamory and open relationships can be beautiful and healthy for individuals with the right emotional maturity, but they are not the correct lifestyle choice for everyone.

“I think polyamory is beautiful I think open relationships have the potential to be beautiful is it for me no I read way too many murder novels okay but it it is for some people and I think it's beautiful I think those people are at a place in their lives in their emotional intelligence that is great”

Khalyla recounts that being in a throuple is emotionally exhausting because it requires managing the emotions of multiple partners.

“to be fair it was [ __ ] exhausting from the emotional end of it because we shared a home we shared a life we traveled together”

Charles claims that a polyfidelity relationship allows for a sincere, loving, and caring connection between more than two people without needing a divorce.

“the basic concept of polyfidelity is there is more than one partner it's just a sincere loving and caring relationship what we looked at was the two women and one man relationship where you promate hours and times to be with one or the other women”

Polyamorous relationships are not an effective external fix for internal trauma or issues with codependency.

“So we're so scared of codependency. Mhm. So therefore we go to polyamory. Yeah. like, I don't want to be dependent on one person. So instead of figuring out the trauma as to why I become codependent, and instead of purifying and figuring out what it is that makes me codependent, I just believe that ”

Polyamory is a delusional social experiment that destabilizes the necessary norms of monogamy and creates unmanageable relationship complexity.

“There's no solution to that problem other than monogamy. And I would also say you're doing something that's bad by entering into a polyamorous relationship. You're destabilizing the social norm.”

Love should be defined as an active commitment to do good for a partner rather than just a fleeting emotional feeling.

“so many people identify love is just a feeling I feel this warm happy fuzzy so I must be in love and for me I take it that is love is always an action”

Polyamory allows for a supportive and adventurous lifestyle where multiple romantic connections can be maintained through open communication and mutual trust.

“I'm building a poly table poly kitchen table where my men know each other and their women know me and um vice versa and we all do things together dates sex vacations”
