The provided image is fairly bad, but there is another part of this thread where some guy is unironically trying to science and logic other people about how "unhealthy" polyamory is, and how it is a "choice" and therefore should be discouraged.

Plus the hundreds of upvotes on deleted comments that were likely ... not so good. Though I have no idea how to view deleted comments.

And yes, feel proud of me. I blocked r/neoliberal. A small step towards better mental health.

I only wanted to be poly because jealousy is annoying as hell. I don’t have the bandwidth for multiple relationships.

My partner has other partners and it works great for us. He gets to visit his girlfriend this weekend and I get to smell up the house with my totally awesome Indian takeout (spicy food give him heartburn) and play the latest Rimworld DLC.

Edit: the connection is that I can't handle multiple partners because omg scheduling is hard, but I still benefit from the polyamorous nature of the relationship.

Fortunately/unfortunately, jealousy can crop up in any form of relationship without adequate communication.

Yeh, I’ve seen poly folks having screaming matches in public over one person feeli Ng neglected compared to other partners lol. Turns out some people suck at relationships and communication, it isn’t really about the type of relationship they’re in.

I've seen plenty of monogamous relationships have screaming matches in public too 🤣. It's almost like, if you speak broadly about humans, we suck at relationships, no matter what kind it is.
