    Well as I said elsewhere- living with twenty women would really be hell. All that pms at the same time and bickering. Could drive you insane.

    I attempted to literally share a guy in high school, it was very unfulfilling and depressing. I had him during the week, she had him on weekends. It was the most messed-up relationship I've ever been in and I couldn't handle it. The only reason it dragged on for as long as it did was the fact I was 15 and refused to be tied down.

    It's just not fair to have to share someone you're really into with someone else. It's pretty selfish on the person in the middle's behalf, too. His "excuse" was that since she lived an hour away and he only saw her when he wasn't at school, that he got lonely and wanted a closer companion as well. Pick one or the other, buddy!

    I suppose if you're okay with the idea of sharing someone, you're way more open-minded than I ever could be. It's definitely not something I'd do again. I'm also too jealous, I suppose.

    it is certainly very possible for two or more people to shaire two or more other people. shairing only one has an unfortunate tendency to generate insecurities.

    almost everyone shairing almost everyone they have anything in common with would be one way, if there weren't other barriers and discouraging factors to doing so, would be one way to actualy REDUCE those insecurities, and thus signifigantly lower ambient aggressiveness.

    of course it's possible.... it's called polyamoury (sometimes spelt polyamory)

    My boyfriend this summer had another girlfriend. Admittedly I didn't feel like our relationship could get exceptionally serious because of that, but I wasn't really looking for serious then. One of my friends' bf has a mistress now (actually, this couple was soooo against me dating the guy with a gf but anyways, sidebar). Family friends of mine have an open marriage but typically only the man exercises that option. I know a schwack of other people who'd be poly if they weren't currently single.

    That said... it's of course not for everyone. There's nothing wrong with monogamy either. I'm a fan of monogamy personally, but, I understand the urge to be poly and know lots of folks who've practised it and are totally fine - they aren't some raving sluts or manwhores, they just aren't into monogamy.
