i don't really get the issues most people have with being poly.

one barrier for me is that i'm not a swinger or a cuckold festishist and any partners of mine would have thousands of times the opportunity as me and given the level of interest i've received in life it would functionally amount to one of those unless we formed a closed n-cule, which is a kind of poly but not what people are usually talking about.

i already didn't get enough time with one partner because of work hours and stretching that time even further is a non-starter. comersion or whatever the fuck it's called wouldn't make up for me being home alone.

I'm into polyamory but only the kind where my mostly-exclusive partner and I have MFF threesomes (or MMF if the guy is cute and fucks both of us).
