Now, lets clarify some things. One, I am not saying I am interested in a polyamorous relationship. Two, I am not saying this is an excise to cheat. Three, I am not recommending it for everyone.
However, after observing some folks and having some
First of all, one person in no way, shape, or form, fulfills everything a person wants in a spouse. For every good thing we find in a person, there is something annoying about them. For every one need they fill, there is another that they don't fulfill. What every person does is weigh the good vs bad. And some others find that multiple people fulfill multiple niches. And to me, as long as everyone agrees that is fine.
Secondly, I do not believe there is a single type for each and every person. Using myself as an example, there are multiple types of women that work for me; not just a single one. So I can see loving different types of people.
Keeping it simple, watching folks go through the lost and confusion, I just see the problem being that our society assumes monogamy is the answer for love. In reality, it is just an option.

Hey, guy. Thanks for checking in with me. We, both, need to dedicate more time to our blogs. :)
I agree that it's possible, and likely if we allow it, to love more than one person at a time. It's just that when you love someone, you usually don't want to share them. You may be less selfish than most, but that's the reason I've found most people will devote their love, and energy, to one relationship.
Hugs, so good to hear from you.

I totally agree with you. In fact, I take it a bit further and say that I don't believe that there is one soul mate for each of us. I think there are many. I love my husband of 32 years, and I also know that if it were not him, I could be happy with someone else for a lifetime.
I don't mean to trivialize marriage or relationships in any way- I just think that we have enough love in our hearts to accommodate many different types of people.
