Happy Thursday everyone! How are you are doing? Psych2Go is on a mission to bring awareness to topics and issues that are less talked about. In this video, we cover polyamory, a term for being attracted or in a relationship with multiple people at once. Do you know someone like this? If so, consider sharing your experiences in the comment below. We'd love to hear your stories. As always, if you want to support us, you can do so by sharing our videos on your social media. Thank you!

My last relationship was a poly one and, while it is over now, it was the best relationship I've ever had. There was so much more freedom and trust than my previous monogamous relationship. Even though I'm a naturally jealous person, I didn't have to worry that anyone else my partner was with would replace me. We broke up a few months ago on good terms and we're still very good friends.

@Pyroist "Broke up for a reason. This is why poly doesn't work." But I broke up with a number of people in monogamous relationships too? Does me breaking up with someone in a monogamous relationship mean monogamy doesn't work? The open relationship I was in was the happiest relationship I've ever had, and the partner I think I had the best connection with, and loved the most out of any partner I've had, was the person I started an open relationship with. That's the one person I've met so far that I'll never entirely erase my feelings for, the one I'll always support and care for, the one I fell the most deeply in love with. Different things work for different people, not everybody is the same as you.

the keyword is "Consensual". Having an affair is nonconsensual, and you can not use polyamory as an excuse; Talk to your partner, don't just throw yourself out. Always make sure your primary partner feels comfortable, and if your wants and needs don't line up with your partner, either end the relationship to find something new for you, or compromise so that you both can feel safe and satisfied. edit: Also make sure that the new person knows, otherwise they can end up feeling hurt.

Polygamy is so bad in general and bad for your health and much worse than monogamy. Because: Sure you GIVE good: Love for all, freedom, no jealousy (umm right), no clingyness, stuff like that. But you also GIVE terrible: not ever giving full attention to anyone, making no one feel special, making a lover wait around while your in another location with another lover, etc etc. And that's just not good enough. Not loving / caring enough. Even if your lovers say it's fine its not fine, and you should actually want to give "best" to someone you love and not ever hurt them in any way even in a small way, not half good treatment, so. (Basically you're a worse lover than what a monogamist lover who willingly provides great treatment.) How can you do that to your lover? It's bordering cruelty. Just No. Polygamists love to brag alot how they think they're superior blah blah.. But. Really, Monogamy is the good treatment a lover deserves to receive from a caring loving lover... Monogamy is just amazing and caring and healthy and the truly noble unselfish relationship style. Because love isn't just love it's "treatment" too. Polygamists say they're unselfish cause they share etc, BUT no, choosing many lovers for yourself and giving all of them just part time care and attention etc, that's not noble at all. It's the most selfish. It's like choosing many slices of delicious nice cakes and not finishing any / choosing many cute lovely nice little kittens and neglecting all of them. No no no. Selfless? No. How dare you be so selfish, uncaring, and horney. That's sadistic narcissism hurtful selfishness. You are the worse ones, you really are. Even if you can love many, which is easy and fun tbh, not some rare talent, decide to pick one to settle down with, so you can give all of you, (including TIME etc which is impossible for polygamists) to your chosen lover. Cause you want to cause you're in love and therefor you care deeply. Also never make her suppress / feel any sort of bad emotions like jealousy, left out, loneliness (It's natural tbh), forced to suppress competitive feelings, forced to smile through the bad side of polygamy and be a good unbothered unhurt polygamist. Ew. Monogamy treatment is the most caring kind amazing unselfish noble thing to do in the end.

Talking to your partners about your jealousy and why you're feeling it and figuring out how to relieve it is important! For instance, I get jealous when I don't know the partners metamours, so I talked to them about it and and met them and now feel comfortable with them. It's all about what works for you and your partners.

I think you should think about why you would want to restrict someone so that you could hopefully remain in a relationship. I think polyamory is the recognition that someone else's happiness can be just as valuable as your own and that if your partner leaves you, it will be for the sake of their happiness. So don't have your happiness depend entirely on a single relationship and also feel happy for others when they're happy.

@@Psych2go I believe that it would be an experience to go through that may be needed for some. The point about it being able to help other get through their negative emotions, such as jealousy is a very valid and completely fair point. I believe that people would need to be more open minded, and letting it spread with the idea of polygamy would allow people to experience another perspective. Say someone doesn't want to try it simply because the idea is foreign to them, than they miss out on an experience that could very well have changed their life for the better. Meanwhile if they go through with it and learn that it's really not for them after they understand it. That would mean that those people are closer to understanding each other, and that could be one more step in the right direction of everyone being a far better united civilization or even species. So I'd say go for it everyone! Try it once! Learn from experiences out of your normal bubble!

I don’t really have a good experience with poly. I’m a lesbian, and I had a partner. She constantly told me about crushes she had on other boys. I liked her a lot so I just swallowed my pride a bit. I tried explaining to her how I didn’t feel comfortable, and she started to accuse me of being poly-phobic (this was the first time she even mentioned the word poly to me). Next morning I got a call from her angrily demanding that I would be a part of a poly relationship with her and two of her male crushes. I tried explaining how I wasn’t comfortable being in a relationship like that with two males, and after a bit of back and forth, I broke up with her. I know not all polyamorous people are like that, but it just instinctively leaves a bad taste in my mouth remembering that incident.

Been in 2 poly relationships! I must say it’s much easier to open a relationship when your partners are lgbt. I simply asked my girlfriend if she was completely monogamous to try and open it up, and she said she would actually rather be in a poly relationship! We are all very open with each other and trust is our NUMBER ONE go to. We tell each other who we’re dating, we let them see eachother. Of course poly is NOT!! For everyone, if you get jealous easily? Don’t. Don’t try to fix monogamous relationships by making it open. It’s like riding a unicycle because you can’t ride a bike. For me? It works, I’m very happy and so are my two partners. For others? It might not, and that’s okay! Don’t try to force yourself into a poly relationship if you don’t feel like you can take it. Don’t let others force you what to do, do what feels right to you and what you love, just don’t hurt others ^^.

I thought about polyamory a lot the last couple of years, because I fell in love with a few people. So I started thinking about the concept and I would try if I could (even though I don't know if I could handle my selfesteem issues in that case, but I would try), but my current boyfriend isn't open for that because he got betrayed in abusive ways in more than half of his relationships. But that's okay, I can understand and accept that. But something more interesting: My social worker had a polamory relationship that went 18 years! And they didn't broke up because of that, one of them just thought that it didn't fit anymore (she had another boyfriend too, but that wasn't important in that situation). When he was with "only" one girlfriend she asked him to be monogamous from that moment and that was okay too, they also broke up because of something else. :) And he is now like 60 years old and I never expected him to be a person that has so interesting perspectives to the world and such interesting stories!

If you cant do the honor of choosing ONE and doing right by that one person and giving all your love and undivided attention because you love and wanna make that person happy, if you cant do that your a terrible lover its not real love its a selfish empty feast where no one is truely deeply fed, so you dont deserve that person. OR anyone. You can say you love all if them all you want, BUT as time and attention is limited, do right and kindly choose to give it all to one instead of sefishly choosing all and non gets all just all gets crumbs. And if you really really love that person you CAN choose and want to choose to gift all your limited time to them. Make them feel special and all that loveliness and that bond. Never feel left out. Etc. Thay only us bonded feeling, that chosen feeling cause you really love that person.

It's just hard to put a lot of deep feelings to someone you know as poly. You will maybe feel the spark but you will not put much effort to a poly relationship. It's simple to let go of the things you didn't work hard to care and maintain it but in other way around if you work hard to earn something, it's not easy for a human to hand it or share it to others. I would say poly relationship requires less effort, less attachment, less romantic feelings, less care, less time for all of the partners because they can also find that to others. You don't need to work hard so a poly relationship to work out that's why some prefer it because it's not complicated to maintain like for friendship you can still be friends even you have another friends. Monogamy is much more complicated For me because you will have more anxiety, you will be deeply attach , all your decisions should be based on the relationship, you will feel so vulnerable, you need to discipline yourself not to act unto your emotions because you still attracted to other people but you just keep choosing your partner, being exclusive is hard to maintain but what is good about monogamy is you make someone feel they are the best even its obvious they are not the best. You make someone feel that whatever you do and make they are a big part of it. Monogamy for me is so Fucking hard but it's 100% worth it.

Nick O’Teen Not how polyamory works. Being in love with more than one person is in no way insinuating that the other “isn’t enough.” I didn’t fall in love with and start dating my second boyfriend because my first “wasn’t enough.” I just naturally fell in love and followed my heart, and that did not influence my feelings for my first boyfriend in the slightest. I love him exactly the same as I did before, I just also simultaneously love someone else romantically now, and both of them are 100% okay with our dynamic. Try calling parents with multiple children selfish for their firstborn “not being enough,” see how they respond.

@@maebroski4415 to be fair people, in psychology, it is stated that people will look for partners to fulfill needs and wants that were not fulfilled in childhood or they will repeat patterns/avoid certain things all based off of childhood. If you directly translate that into poly, then yes, you probably subconsciously feel as though your partner is lacking in something (if you tell me otherwise, you’re just greedy. If you have everything you need and still want more Thats greed) or you’re afraid of being abandoned so having more partners means that while yes you’ll experience more emotional break ups you’ll always or at least are a lot more guaranteed a back up in a poly relationship so it hurts a lot less and you spend less alone time than a breakup in a mono relationship (the trade off is that if your other two partners break up with you then you just got double ditched). The only other reason I could see desiring someone else if your needs truly are met is that, that desire is a want, not a need OR you have issues with committing to something you’re passionate about or commitment in general which again could stem from your childhood (could also just be that you want to have fun AND keep your partner around but having to deal with a third or even fourth persons needs, emotions, etc sounds like too much of a hassle rather than just agreeing to allow casual sex or shit from time to time and agreeing to have a quasi monogamous relationship. Thats just my opinion though)

Though I, myself, am a non-monogamous person, I’d disagree with the “fear of jealousy” argument. The feelings monogamists have, just like those of polyamorous folks, are completely valid. Polyamory is not some “love boot camp” that is set up to help monogamous people better people or something by learning to neglect their own preferences. Polyamory is for people that already are emotionally and mentally equipped for such a lifestyle while monogamy is for those who are equipped for that one.

Being poly or mono is a spectrum, just like being emotional/logical is a spectrum for diff ppl. Ofc ppl on one end of the spectrum might think that's the only legit, right way to do things and try to lowkey coerce others into their "religion", but that's very disrespectful to other ppl's opinions and feelings which are also valid.

I've been wanting a poly relationship for a few years now. I found someone, a partner, I love absolutely and who is open to the idea and we've experimented a bit but I've embraced it's a slow burn. To me, the concept of having more than one romantic/intimate/sexual partner is no different from having many friends or many family members. My love for one friend or family member can never outweigh my love for another, if I actually love them. I do prioritize some people over others based on context, mood, time, space and energy, but I never rank people. I enjoy sharing with others openly and having great intellectual conversations about honesty and ethics and flexibility.

@Hanna ironically there had been a study conducted that concluded that not every relationship is healthy when the two people don't give each other some space, and instead spend all their free time in each other's faces. While I respect those who remain monogamous, poly relationships that are done right deserve the same basic respect IMO. Most people who are poly will not force someone like you to join them, nor will they call that's secretly stepping out as anything other than your basic cheater. My fiance knows that I'm poly and bisexual because I was open and honest with her. I just have a general love and compassion for people that often leads to more intimate feelings, but she accepts who I am and I will always have her back. When it does happen that I run into someone that develops mutual feelings, my fiance is first to know (even before I even talk to the other person regularly who is also informed before it goes anywhere past friends). The only difference with me is that I barely get into relationships to begin with since I'm often fine on my own because of my upbringing. I don't even talk to someone just because I find them attractive. They're usually the one approaching.

I have a boyfriend, I trust him fully and love him to death, but I desperately want to be with a girl as well since I’m bisexual and prefer girls. Thing is I don’t want to “cheat on him” because I would automatically feel like I’m betraying him, even though he’s completely supportive of me wanting a girlfriend, and just wants me to be happy.

This is actually kind of an inaccurate representation of polyamory First off I think it'll be very easy for someone who perhaps doesn't know much about polyamory to mistake it for an open relationship Especially when at a point you mentioned being free to flirt and have a simple coffee date. However if the topic is polyamory, you are not free to flirt in a polyamorous relationship. A polyamorous relationship is like another other relationship but with one, maybe two extra people, or more depending on what you like It's an equal relationship between all people An open relationship is when a couple who are together freely allow each other to see other people, but these relationships never mix and are completely separate I think it can be easily mistaken for a viewer because both open relationships and polygamy are both mentioned - when they absolutely shouldn't be Polyamory, polygamy and open relationships are all different things so if you're doing a video about polyamory, the other two should not be mentioned at all because they are completely separate things

Generally, open relationships are solely about sex.. whereas parallel polyamory can involve multiple romantic relationships that dont interact with the other.

This video is the best I’ve seen when explaining polyamory. It’s revolutionary and so important for opening peoples minds. It’s like she said, it’s all good unless someone is getting hurt. What I’ve found in my own relationship is that the stigma from Society is what causes the pain. Because of society I’m being forced to choose between my partners. I will have to end my marriage so that I can even be considered a liable partner for my boyfriend. Luckily my husband is truly loving and seeks my happiness. The best thing I’ve learned from polyamory is that your partner doesn’t need to fit into a box. They have their own gifts to bring. Just because one person makes you happy doesn’t mean the other person doesn’t have something else to bring. But overall I’m lost at what to do and I hate people because they judge without proper reason.

@Rose Vampire that’s assuming that the needs and nature of the connection between the 3+ people are the same. For example one of them may simply be looking for a casual connection rather than a committed one, so they won’t be “left out” because the arrangement is fair to everyone’s needs and desires. Some polyamorous people swap with each other’s partners and they’re all intimately involved with each other, others don’t mingle with each other’s partners and see different people entirely. It all depends on transparent communication of needs/desires and clear consent for all parties. If anyone has feeling of being “left out” this is a form of jealousy which as the video established is not a healthy emotion to have in an open/polyamorous relationship.

If people refuse polyamory to avoid jealousy, then they should avoid relationships themselves to prevent any jealousy. I personally found myself NEVER struggling with any jealousy ONLY during times of being single. Monogamous relationships provoked jealousy in me. And I hate being jealous. So, I am staying single and it's the most peaceful time. I have never been as happy in a relationship as I had been single. However, I have never tried polyamorous nor met anyone willing to practice that. But I think the best way to not feel jealous is to not enter in any relationships.

Not like its the only criticism we could throw your way, but it remains a silverbullet as your whole narrative is shattered if its not something people are intrinsically born as and yet still its mega-rare

There is an extreme difference between crushing on someone and loving someone when you have a crush, you only see superficial, mostly appearance level, you only love the idea of it, but you dont know what love is until you truly know them.. you cant just say "i have crushes im poly" When you truly love someone is when you can see yourself living with them, supporting them, when you see that they care about you, no matter how you look, no matter what happens and that youre safe enough to cry and feel.. thats why i seriously dont believe in poly..it took me so long to have a peaceful relationship in my life..and i truly know this person..and i would have to take X amount of same years to know someone else if i were to add someone else to the relationship.. so no.. its not for me

Idk if I'm polyamorous but I get you completely. I know what it's like to love someone, you become blind to everything and everyone else but there is always an inner aspect of me that's wants to explore, that wants to make my love blossom and expand, that wants to experience more. Loving someone exclusively is great but limiting. Sooner or later you'll want to go beyond the limit, that doesn't mean ending a relationship with your partner but it means that it's time to expand beyond it. I personally can love many people, and have intimate relationships with them. It makes life so exciting but a lot of people aren't ready yet for polyamory.

honestly with complete respect to all you guys , wether with or against . i see that this type of relationship is very toxic to our behavioural understanding and analysis . I believe that being in a love relationship with certain one means that you are specific in choosing this person as a partner because he or she is a complementary to your life . And a relationship means that every partner should sacrifice in a part of their life and emotions to help the other one and make his life better . And jealousy have nothing to do , if your partner leaves you and gets in another relation , believe me you are not feeling jealousy , but you are feeling beaten and cheated on emotionally because you will feel that what you have given with passion is blown in air . And that does not mean that you are exerting tension in the relationship and being selfish because ,but this means that you chose the wrong complementary piece of your life . As my philosophical teacher says , life is full of frogs , and you should kiss many frogs to find that one which will transform into your prince . I am not against keep indulging in safe healthy relationships until meeting your compatible one , but you should get in relations separately , because love is never meant to be divided on each person you like . it is not about making benefits. it is about uniting and helping each other . Thank you

While you are dividing your love in a way, so are others, so you are giving two halves, but the other two are also giving two halves, and everyone is receiving the same: two halves. It is a matter of preference. Some People love pizza with a little bit of many different ingredients, others prefer a simpler pizza with cheese only to enjoy the cheese by itself. Monogamy is like a pizza with extra cheese, polyamory is like a pizza with a little bit of peperoni, a few mushroom, a few veggies, some olives. Different People prefer and better interact with different things.

We learn how to communicate over all of us and to trust because we aren't perfect saints and many of us have traumas and issues that we haven't worked past. We try our hardest to listen and understand and be supportive rocks for everyone and it works out. In the end, I'm surrounded by people and partners that truly love me

Personally i don’t really think you can love multiple people like that. You can leave one and love another, but I don’t think you can love multiple people at the deep level you can love one. To me it sounds like someone involved in polyamory doesn’t really want a “relationship” so much as they just want freedom to have sex with anyone. I also feel like some of these seem kinda general. Like they can function in a monogamous relationship too. I’m not a psychologist, I’m just guessing based on what I know about the way I(and probably others) work
