Multi partnered? Do you mean polyamorous? I know several friends who are polyamorous, it works well for them

I hear a lot of polyamorous people about multiple relationships, which sounds like more work than it is worth. I was thinking one relationship where everyone is everyone's partner.

That relationship would be interesting but solely from a Combinatorics perspective.

It would be pretty simple, actually, as everyone would be part of the same set. Polyamorous relationships where several people have multiple none-shared partners gets way more interesting. I am not sure I could cope with keeping track of it if I were in the middle of it though.

I didn't know there was a character limit, nor that I can't reply to my own replies. Here's my long reply pastebin.com/raw/H...

I am thinking jealousy would be mitigated in this relationship because everyone has the same thing. Which is different from how I usually hear polyamorous relationships described. The usual would happen if I were to date you, while you are also together with your GF. Then your GF might get jealous when you spend time with me. In my case I would date both you and your GF, hopefully mitigating the jealousy aspect. An "open relationship" is an example of the former: it would allow you and/or your GF to find a second partner. In case of the latter it would allow you as a couple to bring in a third partner... and possibly a 4th, 5th, etc
