Can You be Happy in a Polyamorous Relationship?

When it comes to relationships, people have different expectations and are prepared to accept different types of relationships. For instance, some people want total monogamy when it comes to their relationship and anything less would mean an end to the relationship. However, others are happy to try different things and have a more open relationship so they can try new experiences with other people while still being in a loving long-term relationship.

So, can a relationship survive this type of openness? And what is polyamory? Well, this type of relationship is based on both partners agreeing that while they are committed to one another as partners, both are free to pursue other sexual experiences outside the relationship. This is not considered cheating or being unfaithful, as it is part of this type of relationship and is therefore done with the full knowledge and acceptance of the other partner.

Is this Type of Relationship Healthy?

One thing many people worry about is whether this type of relationship is healthy. Well, if you are in an open relationship such as this, you may find that many people are not accepting because it doesn’t fit in with their idea of a normal relationship. However, if both partners are happy to be in this type of relationship, it is not an unhealthy one. It is simply down to personal choice and for many people, it is something that helps to strengthen their relationship with their partner.

Of course, there are factors you need to consider if you want to get into this type of relationship. For instance, both partners have to be sure they practice safe sex with other people to reduce the risk of any STDs, which could then be passed on to one another. This is also essential to ensure there are no unwanted pregnancies with other people. In addition, you need to be mindful about your partner developing feelings for another person they are sleeping with or seeing. This is something that could break your relationship, so it is something you need to discuss with one another before entering into this sort of relationship.

Total honesty between the two main partners is also vital when it comes to this type of relationship, otherwise one of you could end up feeling completely paranoid about what the other is doing. You should both be honest and open with one another, as this is what makes it different from cheating behind someone’s back. The more open you are with one another, the easier you will find it to be in a polyamorous relationship.

Enjoying New Experiences

For many couples, this type of relationship is simply about enjoying new experiences with other people. In many people’s minds, being in a loving relationship does not mean having to go through the same sexual routine with the same person for the rest of their lives. This is why many modern couples decide to get into this type of relationship.
