If you don’t want your partner to fuck others you just don’t love them enough. Monogamous people just don’t know what love is. :autism:

Why would anyone get upset about getting AIDS, herpes, syphilis, crabs, or other STDs from their shitty, cheating partners? Why would they care about spending half their money the rest of their lives to support a child that isn't theirs? They must just be jealous assholes.

These assholes think they're enlightened.

TL;DR Woman who clearly was never ok with her husband fucking other women lets him do it anyway while it tears her apart.

Elsewhere in the thread:
Yeah at the very beginning he said he would quit poly because it wasn’t worth the bad feelings and I said no, you’re poly. You didn’t do anything wrong.

Why are these people doing this to themselves? Are poly people really that successful in brainwashing people that their way is more enlightened?

My uninformed evo-psych conjecture is that there's significant benefit in uniformity of belief in primate tribes. If the rest of the tribe thinks that red is a bad color, it's likely best that you think so too.

Certainly we see this urge toward conformity in psychological experiments. The Asch conformity experiment is the most famous of its kind, and it is widely reproduced. So even if my conjecture is crap, the effect is real.

So if you surround yourself with people who think that polyamory is the only morally defensible practice, you'll tend to act as if you believe it when you're interacting with your social group. But you can't lie to your heart so convincingly.

Man in the process of destroying his marriage to his wife because he's found "success" in polyamory and she hasn't. Have some wonderful highlights from an appropriately titled, "Polyamory is making my wife very sad" (archived)

If only if there was an easy, simple solution for eliminating the source of his wife's unhappiness.
