Shifting - when you date someone who is barely old/young enough to be relatable, over a long enough time that will shift your definition of relatable and end with you being open to dating someone that you would not have considered previously. And unlike monogamous relationships, you can start looking for a new relationship before the old one ends (more importantly, without a breakup that will probably make you stop and think about what you want out of the next relationship).
This one makes a lot sense. Aside from the "husband declares himself poly so he can fuck the babysitter"/"wife pushes husband into open relationship so she can fuck the poolboy" style of polyamory, a lot of polyfags don't seem to start out by recruiting much younger people into the polycule. It does seem that a common pattern is that every new partner is just a little younger than the last, until they get to the point where they're apparentlymarking down days until someone's 18th birthday.
 
Rhetorical but I'll answer anyways - status symbol. The more people you're dating the better you are at poly which makes you more enlightened and even more worthy of respect in the poly 'community'. This goes double for people with few to no IRL relationships, they overcompensate by shifting the goalposts and telling implausible lies to distract from how they 'failed' at poly (which in their nutso world means they aren't as enlightened).
Every now and then, years apart, I use dating apps for a few days and every single time I see a poly-cuck, they're enormous, nude, low-quality humans with no social skills, in different amounts. You'll see the most entitled fat slobs who grew their ego because they roped one loser into fucking them enough that they can now rank-up with a better one while keeping the backup.

Or the most asexual looking tit-less woman who's "LOOKING FOR A STUD (I'M MARRIED)", clearly still having no luck. These terminally online losers measure friendship in sexting and meeting up to "cuddle". It's obvious they might as well rename their personal Discord with 10 aspiring cucks "My polycule" and move on with their life.

I never noticed much of the "Me me me" normie generation. I do however notice it in abundance now that the Discord troons are ruling.
 
Two pretty average looking people is a giant step up for polyamorists. Although, I don't quite understand how two people in a relationship is polyamorous, but what do I know.

The other members of the polycule are ugly so they couldn't be included. Also I posted this in another thread but it fits here too, speaking of ugly poly people.

Human psychology is an infant science, still very much metaphorically draining bad blood with leeches. “Therapy”, unless it’s occupational therapy with a specific concrete goal, is just paying someone to pretend to be a sympathetic friend. And people shop around until they find someone who tells them what they want to hear.

If you have an unhealthy disordered life plan, you pretty much look for a “unhealthy disordered positive” therapist whose entire racket is validating your specific pathology.

Tl;dr: the benefit is attracting regular paycheques to your practice
I mean just think of all the stories these people post themselves where the millisecond the therapist pushes back and doesn't validate their hecking correctorino feelings they sperg out and go find a new therapist.

For a lot of these people therapy isn't really about solving problems or helping themselves, it's just a roundabout way of finding "validation" I.E. being told you're right.
 
Lily Allen's entire new album is about how her ex-husband tried to force her into polyamory and she tried to be a "cool girl" about it until she couldn't stand it any more and left. Very raw lyrics, where she talks about how they make all these "rules" for poly life and then he just breaks them to do whatever the fuck he wants anyway.

I found a shoebox full of handwritten letters
From brokenhearted women wishing you could have been better
Sheets pulled off the bed, they're strewn all on the floor
Long black hair, probably from the night before
Duane Reade bag with the handles tied
Sex toys, butt plugs, lube inside
Hundreds of Trojans, you're so fucking broken
How'd I get caught up in your double life?

I don't wanna fuck with anyone else, I know that's all you wanna do
I'm so committed that I'd lose myself 'cause I don't wanna lose you, you, you
I changed my immigration status for you to treat me like a stranger
Why do I feel like such a failure? A life with you looked good on paper

I've been trying to be open
I just want to meet your needs
And for some reason I revert to people pleasing
I'll be your nonmonogamummy
I'm just trying to be open

Did you fall in love with someone who isn't me?
Why arе we here talking about vasеctomies?
Did you get someone pregnant? Someone who isn't me?
Did you take her to the clinic? Did you hold her hand?
Is she having your babies?

So I go by Dallas Major, but that's not really my name
You know, I used to be quite famous, that was way back in the day
Yes, I'm here for validation and I probably should explain
How my marriage has been opened since my husband went astray

And I hate it here
I hate it

My name is Dallas Major and I'm coming out to play
Looking for someone to have fun with while my husband works away
I'm almost nearly forty, I'm just shy of five-foot-two
I'm a mum to teenage children, does that sound like fun to you?

[Chorus]
'Cause I hate it here
I hate it here
I hate it, I hate it

And now I'm ruminating, ruminating, now I'm in my head
Ruminating, ruminating all the things you said
Why can't you wait for me to come home?
This conversation's too big for a phone call
Ruminating, ruminating, I'vе been up all night
Did you kiss her on the lips and look into her еyes?
Did you have fun? Now that it's done
Baby, won't you tell me that I'm still your number one?
'Cause you're my number one

I told you all of this has been too brutal
You told me that you felt the same, it's mutual
And then you came out with this line, so crucial
Yeah, "If it has to happen, baby, do you want to know?"
"If it has to happen, baby, do you want to know?"
"If it has to happen, baby, do you want to know?"
I don't know, I don't know

Course I'm angry, course I'm hurt
Looking back at it's so absurd
Course I trusted you and took you at your word (At your word)
Who said romance isn't dead? Been no romance since we wed
"Why aren't we fucking baby?" Yeah, that's what you said
But you let me think it was me in my head
And nothing to do with them girls in your bed


If you have someone in your life who is caught up in a situation like this, it might be a good album to make them reassess their priorities and life. The lyrics are so painfully literal that it's pretty much impossible to misinterpret them.
 
One thing poly people seem u able to recognize (or don't want to admit):

You may have infinite love . You do not have infinite time.
 
You do not have infinite time.
You do when you don't work, don't clean the house rental, have no meaningful hobbies or extracurriculars that might compel you to go outside, and you either don't have kids or just pawn them off to your spouse/parents/CPS and go get railed by strangers.
 
You can seriously go there any time, any day and it's just misery.

"Wife" and "their" yeah..... degenerates make hell, and the problem is their hells spill over and affect everyone else. The only good thing is that we are in an era where all the mistakes are well documented so when they try to pull this shit again in the future we can show that generation of humans all the God-awful cringe.

They don't have infinite love either.

For one, polyamorous are always in it to leech money, sex, or both

And love (in all of its forms) is conditional, and that's part of what makes it special and difficult to create between individuals. That's why they end up miserable because they get pleasure that ends quickly and easily and needs to be constantly fed to remain satisfying, and they do not choose partners based on characteristics that are core to building long-lasting relationships. They also taint the core traits by making them shallow and unimportant. 'Love' or characteristics that make someone love are too freely given in these relationships, and so nothing is special about the relationship and that makes it easy for one side to discard. Polyamorous people are not the only ones to do this but it's why basically all poly marriages fail when the principles are applied.

Treat your relationship as a job you hate:

She's breaking up with him, but not because he clearly only sees her as an easy lay:

Just force yourself to be poly, it's the same as wearing tight pants:

>in college i convinced a mono guy to go poly
>he enjoyed it but i was too busy to actually explore other partners

she pushes for poly, but then ends up not doing anything with it due to being 'too busy' while her boyfriend fucks around on her? what the fuck am i reading? is this some female cuck fanfiction writing exercise?
 
The way that they talk about taking on "the discomfort" is like how professional athletes talk about training and playing through the pain every day. The difference is that the life the poly people are trying to achieve typically ends with less money, more bad tattoos, and a bunch of hurt feeling for people who are already too emotionally retarded to handle them.
