r/polyamory

Can confirm that these "relationship anarchy" people do exist, just in less concentrated autism than in that leaflet. Knew a guy who "didn't believe in partners or relationships" but would still date people and then simply say "you may be one of many". His argument was he was "removing the heteronormativity inherent in standard relationships".

He was straight, which was the funniest shit, and ended up obviously lonely.
 
Holy shit there is not context that wouldn't immediately turn anyone away from you. That line just seems like you joining a sex cult or something
Or just makes you feel unvalued and disposable. That really isn't a selling point, at least polys talk about how love is infinite and making effort to make your all of your parters feel special and loved. Sure poly still leads many feeling like dirt but at least they try to market themselves as caring.

"Your heteronomative uniqueness will be added to our polycule. Resistance is futile."

Sounds like something a PUA would say to a girl to lower her confidence/self-esteem.
 
The source of this was a housing ad in MI that someone in a Facebook group with me found, I'm guessing on a normal website since they were surprised.

Somewhat late but damn that's a beautiful house from the outside. The living room is still somewhat good looking, but they have fucked up every other room with their lame anarcho-hippie aesthetics. PLing but years ago I used to buy those discourses and hang out with that kind of people, they always have a bad taste and love fucking up nice buildings because politics or something. I wonder if there's roaches or rats living in the kitchen and they won't kill them because of their veganism.
 
Kindof funny to see your profile pic in this thread, David Bowie had an "open marriage" with Angela but he was getting laid a lot more so she got salty about it which was the reason they seperated lmao.
The one biography I read painted him as a mix of a satyr and a sociopath with his willingness to sleep around for pleasure and career advancement. True or not as far as I know he never dressed it up as some sort enlightened intellectual pursuit unlike the majority of the cows in this thread and who I know personally.

Also, rock stars, man.
 
I used to know one autistic incel asexual who was in favour of polyamory. Not for him, but for others. His rationale was that polyamory would take poly people out of the dating market and leave only those who wanted to settle or something.
His gf left him because he was asexual and couldnt satisfy her. He said he couldnt do poly either because hed get jealous.
I think this was just some autistic plan to trap his gf or something. It always puzzled me.

I think his logic is something like "someone being into poly is a big red flag for me, so the more of them that are in those stupid little 'polycules', the less likely I'll ever run into that type of person while trying to find a gf. I hope they all keep to their weird little poly circles so that I don't have to put up with them on the normal dating scene."

Sounds autistic enough to be right.

I can't say I disagree with the sentiment. With most of the poly weirdos, they don't try to hide that they want it, and some of them even seem to avoid any sort of monogamy because it's "evil" or "oppressive" or whatever, but this thread has numerous examples of people who date someone for over a year, or even get a decade into a marriage with kids, before "coming out" as poly, and it's much harder to run away from someone (even with a huge red flag like that) when you're already invested in a relationship with them. The more of those creeps that stick to their own kind, and don't try to fuck with normal people, the better...

Even if polyamory was that popular, that still wouldnt happen. Poly fucks always need their stable cuck spouses. Just look at r/adultery. It's all part of a strategy. The last thing they want is to keep to their kind because theyd have no one to parasite.

Except that's not how it works. These people are never satisfied - they're constantly adding new humans like pokemon to the swirling drain that is their narcissism.

I wonder what the cross-over is with polyfags and how it seems so many aspects of Current Year are designed to be digested quickly, easily, and superficially, and then tossed away as quickly as they arrived. Planned obsolescence baked into devices, news, food, vidya - rapid hits of dopamine followed by lows, and then onto the next hit, forgetting about the preceding event. Rinse and repeat. Why wouldn't someone who can't finish a single newspaper story, 23 minute TV show or conversation without checking their phone fifteen times be in a similar position with romantic relationships?

Familiarity breeds contempt but why wait for contempt when boredom sets in long before familiarity can get its pants on?

At the end of the day I still maintain the majority of these people are just losers locked in arrested development who were always on the periphery of normal, stable relationships during formative years and are trying to make up for lost time by whoring around in their adult years long after most people got the sowing of wild oats out of their system and settled down. It's no surprise that a lot of the stories you read are connected to people who lead chaotic, imbalanced lives. Even more horrifying that so many seem to have involved goddamn children into the mix.

Children are the ultimate narc fix. The ultimate "cucked spouse" that doesn't leave (usually because they cant until a certain age and many don't when they reach that age either because they have been brainwashed or ended up like many of the cows here). These poly women often love to breed themselves like cows for this reason.
You can literally do anything to them, they cant leave you and in many cases they wont be taken away and no one will give a shit. Unfortunately its just how these things work.
 
The ones I know IRL all seemed to have married quite young, often LDRs with other nerds. Some of them had kids. The relationships weren't built on much beyond infatuation and shared nerd interests and ran their course after a few years, but they don't want to split up and not have the family support structure and convenient childcare. So, polyfuckery occurs. Great for everyone except the children.
