So, anyone polyamorous out there? People who believe in loving more than one person, people who prefer to have romantic relationships with more than one person. (Open networks or closed groups.) Also, if you do reply, give us an idea what kind of relationships you prefer.

(Please, don't post if you are a swinger but not poly... Having sex with more than one person is different from loving more than one person. Get your own roll-call. ;) )

Me first... Vail and I are looking for a third (female) to form a "Triad"... Three people acting otherwise like a committed couple would. So, any reply, or just the sound of crickets, the occasional tumbleweed, and the trolls?
Me, as well -- I'm in a triad with my husband and girlfriend, and I have a secondary partner who is female.

Our relationship works as an open network...all of us are free to see other people as secondaries, but there's an agreement that each of the other two people in our triad can veto a secondary relationship being discussed (before it starts) if there is a problem with the new secondary respecting our (the triad's) agreements, time and space needs, etc.

I'm really happy with the triad I'm in now...it's a family-oriented relationship, in that my girlfriend is a full partner in our lives and in our family. My daughter adores her, and my gf treats my daughter just as if she were her own child. My gf can't have children of her own, and we're discussing the idea of her having some of her eggs frozen, and then I would carry a child who was biologically my gf's and husband's offspring.

I just seem to default to a three-person relationship...that's how I feel most comfortable. Sex and friendship and life in a group of three just feel "right" to me.
