- Oh, but I DO know about it. I used to be in a polyamorous relationship.
- Well, I committed myself, but she didn't. She slept around, etc. (god
- knows why I got involved w/ her..). But trust her? Nahh.. how could I
- when she was sharing other people's beds? So I DO know about, but true,
- some people can handle it, some can't. Me, I'm neither polyamorous nor
- monogamous.. I'm nonamorous! :) No time for a relationship, considering
- work, school, etc. Bleah!
