So as some of you may know, I'm a member of a poly board out there and I read something the other day that kinda got me. Apparently, it's thought that a quad relationship (two couples) is easier to maintain than a triad (the two girls and I). I was floored by that. I guess that just didn't make sense to me.
What was said is that there's more flexibility in a quad than in a triad. I guess I'm not sure what that means in relationship to the...relationship. Of course, I only have experience with a triad so that's really all I can speak about.
So many people don't understand how our relationship works. How it's possible to love more than one person. How can you share? That's a question I get often. See, that's just it. It's not about sharing. There's really nothing that we share outside of food, household things, and bud (hehe), but aside from that we share no more than a traditional couple.
We all enjoy spending time together, not apart. We don't need that alone time that some people feel they need in a relationship. Hell, there are times when we think we're odd because we don't want that alone time. Now, we do all get some time alone with each other individually. Now with summer hours, I get some days with wife D, days that wife M stays home we get time together, and days when I'm out and about the girls get their time together. Those times aren't often, but we do enjoy them when we can get them. The majority of the time, the two people that are together are talking about the third, and usually wishing they were around. LOL That is our life.
I know it's bizarre to some people out there, but three (or more) people can all love each other as if it were one big happy family. We all love each other, worry about each other, care about each other, and watch out for each other. I've said it before and I'll say it again, how can it be bad when you have that many special people in your life?
