I am so confused... I feel like a threesome would solve everything... whatever that everything is. Or a foursome, with the ex involved, that works too.
I've been wondering why people keep saying this. I understand that for some people dating multiple people is a viable lifestyle. But for most people it isn't. The majority of human societies throughout history settled on monogamy as a structure for human relations for a reason (and the exceptions are usually instances of wealthy and powerful men taking multiple wives, who are effectively their property).
Most people are simply born such that relationships are naturally one-on-one, and the alternative never even occurs to them. Even those who commit adultery are mostly just in several simultaneous one-on-one relationships, with no real overlap between them.
If you have a love triangle, for polyamory to be a solution you have to have a very rare coincidence: all three of the characters have to be willing and able to be in such a relationship. If even one of them cannot, then it doesn't work.
"They should just all fuck each other together" isn't a real solution for most relationship problems.
