Frequently asked questions

How rare are polyamorous relationships?

According to information from Indiana University, 1 in 9 people have been involved in a polyamorous relationship.

Can anyone be polyamorous, or is it only for certain people?

Polyamory is a relationship orientation that's open to anyone who feels it aligns with their values and desires, but it's not a one-size-fits-all approach and may not be suitable for everyone. It requires strong communication, consent, and a willingness to navigate complex emotions, so individuals should carefully consider whether it's right for them and their potential partners.

What is polyamory, and how does it differ from monogamy?

Polyamory is a relationship orientation that involves having romantic or intimate connections with multiple people simultaneously, with the knowledge and consent of all involved parties, and emphasizes open and honest communication. In contrast, monogamy is a traditional relationship style where individuals exclusively commit to one partner at a time, typically focusing on a single romantic or sexual relationship.
