The def we’re using from Wiki:Polyamory (from Greek πολύ poly, “many, several”, and Latin amor, “love”) is typically the practice of, or desire for, intimate relationships where individuals may have more than one partner, with the knowledge and consent of all partners. It has been described as “consensual, ethical, and responsible non-monogamy”.

No that’s poly that you are talking about is Polyfidelity or group marriage. Hope all 3 of them are lovers then otherwise it’s just open to disaster
@Background Pony #30E7
Okay, yeah, that sounds more like an open relationship, not what most people call poly.
Just to use the present image as an example, let’s say that what these folks asking for comes true and Starlight sees both Trixie and Sunburst. Trixie and Sunburst would definitely get to know each other, probably all three would live together when the time is right and would become at least good friends, if not lovers themselves. It’s a closed triangle.

The one I am talking about is when 2 people are together then the husband goes to his side girlfriend which has 2 other lovers. then the wife goes to her side boyfriend that has 3 other lovers none of which are connected to her
Okay, because I’m confused now, are you maybe mixing up poly relationships and open relationships? Because any case of poly relationships I’ve known were a set small group of people who all knew each other and were committed to sticking together.
@Darth Sonic
That’s fine I like group relationships where everyone is involved. Like if you go outside the group you are cheating which is why I like herds
@Background Pony #30E7
I’d point out that you seem to have a problem with going from one lover to another. My ideal Poly/harem involves everyone involved in group sessions, so everyone is involved.
Unless you have something against threesomes now? :P
@Darth Sonic
Heh aha well just so you understand my position I am for the family unit I have nothing against what this fandom call herd but polyamory disgust me nothing against you personally
Well, I feel like an uncultured fuck right now, I should have recognized her. :P
Oh she will, much to Shining’s annoyance…

your current filter.That’s Mammy from Gone With the Wind.
I can imagine Cadence having a field day in such episode.
What movie is that from, anywho?
@Jarkes
I am so sorry.

Run before you get tangled up in this.

I never said that it was not consensual
The “with the knowledge and consent of all partners” is the important part

That’s not really different from what I wrote is it?

Definition of polyamory
plural polyamories
: the state or practice of having more than one open romantic relationship at a time
Were are you getting your definition from?
Poly works like that too they can take as many lovers as they want if it’s just standard poly
What you’re thinking of is open marriage, not poly. I’m more forgiving of poly than open.
