Define polyamorous dating

Polyamory is the practice of having more than one loving relationship at the same time, with the full knowledge and consent of all partners involved.

The relationships are long-term, intimate, and usually (but not necessarily) sexual.

I believe the challenge stems from the challenge people have with love and how to define different kinds of love.

(The term has not been recognized by the Dictionary.) Her definition was: The practice, state or ability of having more than one sexual loving relationship at the same time, with the full knowledge and consent of all partners involved.

This term was meant to be inclusive, and in that context, we have never intended to particularly exclude "swinging" per se, if practitioners thereof wished to adopt the term and include themselves.

To this end, interested individuals can provide their own personal working definition (it is recommended that this definition be placed in the Poly Defn subpage of their personal User Page so that people can find personal definitions without needing a link).

You can add a link to your personal definition here as well.
