What is polyamory?

Polyamory literally means "many loves".

Polyamory, according to wikipedia, is the practice, desire, or acceptance of having more than one intimate relationship at a time with the knowledge and informed consent of everyone involved.

From the individual standpoint polyamory is the possibility of having love relationships with more than one boyfriend/girlfriend/lover/wife/husband at a time. Maybe these people also have relationships with your other loves, or with different people entirely. The important point is that everyone knows about and accepts everyone else involved. Honesty is key and communication is essential.

Polyamory is one of several forms of ethical non-monogamy.
