Sometimes I like to think I couldn’t be either emotionally or sexually monogamous but I’ve come to discover it’s ingrained in me that I am.
Shit, sometimes I’m both emotionally & sexually monogamous and incredibly loyal to those that don’t even deserve me, that’s how much it’s become part on my inner, deep dark, life values.
Not sure how or if I can change or even if I want to  |

"No.
Neither sexually or emotionally "
Sexually I agree, emotionally though, for me that's a hard limit. I've been on the receiving end of a partner being emotionally non monogamous, and I was not wired that way, we were not compatible. I guess that's the beauty of different people liking different things though. |

It’s hard unlearning. Finding out about non monogamy was liberating for me and felt like it meant I could be who I feel like I am. If it didn’t feel right, it’s probably not for you. Being monogamous isn’t a bad thing. Just that it’s not for everyone like society teaches |

I describe myself as ambiamorous ...
But in answer to your question No.
I have a partner I love ..I like the freedom of knowing I can see others romantically or sexually if I want too and wether I choose to use that freedom is within my control.
With the obvious proviso of communication and it not adversely impacting my existing relationship etc |

No. I was for a long time. Now we've discovered the joy of swinging.
I don't think I could be truly emotionally non-monogamous. I get a bit overwhelmed with all the feelings. Although I do like building connections with people, but my marriage will always be my priority.

Emotionally, I consider myself poly minus. I love my friends deeply and fiercely and will move heaven and earth for my inner circle... but we're not making a habit of anyone staying here. Outta my house. |

I'd be happier with the freedom of an open relationship but I don't find men are very interested (at least the ones I'm interested in). I may have to choose. |

"Emotionally yes, sexually no.
However our relationship comes 1st if either wanted monogamy then that's what it would be, fabs just a bit of fun.
Mrs "
I want this relationship^. Not, theirs, my own.
It’s like when you’re shopping, and you see someone has a box of doughnuts in the basket. And you can go and buy a box of doughnuts for yourself. |

from Greek, from monogamos monogamous, from mon- + gamos marriage, from gamein to marry. Thank you dicipoedia.
We are each only married to one person,ergo we are monogamous and everything on here is just entertainment?
To head you off at the pass...the same could logically be said of a pair of cheaters on fab whose monogametes don't know. Suggestions please for an
alternative word to differentiate the two.  |

In a partnership, yes. I would want to focus wholly on the relationship and make it work and I hope the significant other would want to do the same also. But I would be open to exploring and seeing what we discover, in trying different dynamics that we're curious about. |
