Message: <blockquote data-quote="Umbran" data-source="post: 6258890" data-attributes="member: 177">Any close partnership is difficult, and needs work.  A close partnership that is based on emotional bonds is even moreso.  Adding more people and personalities into the mix doesn't make it easier, in general.It is glorified for many reasons.  Many find that the restrictions are worth the benefits, and that the investment of effort pay off in the long run.Maybe you don't mean it that way, but your wording is just as bad as those who seem to imply that monogamy is for everyone. It goes against your personal nature, perhaps.  But just as in games, one should not mistake one's personal preferences for "The Truth".  The needs, desires, and natures of different people may lead to different relationships being easiest for them.</blockquote>
