I have a strong feeling that like many new things, poliamory is currently mostly/only getting get “positive marketing” narrative.
Basically: what’s being advertised is mostly the “happy path”. Everything goes well until it doesn’t, what then?
Relationships are hard. There are a number of ways things get messy (and/or toxic) with two individuals, somehow things should improve with more than two persons ?
I wonder if it's also easier for people who have less family relationships going on.
Me and my girlfriends are all distant from our families. If I regularly visited my parents and siblings and spent time with them, I'd have less time for romantic partners.
I wonder if there's a need for secure family-like relationships, and where the family of origin has failed, people are more likely to seek that feeling from romantic partners. "There is no form of incest greater than T4T"
