Now that you've both checked in on the idea of love, especially that Bad kind, where a person falls in love with someone of the opposite sex, how do you stand on polyamory? That's where a number of people form loving relationships -- primarily heterosexual -- but not limited to monogamy? I ask because today I find myself a fly on the wall in a household full of laughing, amazing well-adjusted and well-loved children. The four people I live with -- two women and one child -- are being visited by one of the women's other boyfriends and his three kids. Tomorrow the other boyfriend of one of the other women may show up with his two kids. With regard to Billy's in-quotes 'love'...there is more of it in this household than in any monogamous marriage or relationship I have ever encountered. However, when same-sex marriage is finally adopted as normal all around the world, it will still take YEARS before governments and churches will accept polyamory. That's not hyperbole; that's just the honest truth. It's been an interesting experiment for me, as kind of a loner, living with a polyamorous family for the last year. I am neither romantically nor sexually involved with either of the two women, and Roland definitely isn't my type. :-) I don't really ask about their relationships with each other, or with their occasional other partners, and I don't really care. All I know is that in my immediate "extended family" these three people do as fine a job of loving each other and their daughter Maya as I have ever seen done on this planet. They'd all love to be legally married. But no way. That won't happen until decades after people can no longer remember why there was any furor over gay marriage.
