In polyamorous communities, it’s common to engage in relationships that involve multiple partners. While dating within such networks is well-established, I propose an innovative concept that adds a new dimension to these relationships. Initially termed “Tames” for convenience, this concept is now rebranded as “Partnerships” to better reflect its nature.

Partnerships Explained

Partnerships are individuals who enter into a formal arrangement with members of a polyamorous group, offering either romantic or sexual companionship. They commit to serving and supporting all members of the polycule for the duration of their lives. This arrangement provides a structured way for people within the polyamorous network to engage with external partners who play a significant role in their lives.

The Concept of Marriage Within the Polycule

A unique feature of this model is that if a member of the polyamorous group develops deep feelings or falls in love with a Partnership, they have the option to marry that Partnership. This possibility allows for formal recognition of a significant romantic bond, even as the Partnership continues to fulfill their role within the broader polyamorous network.

Benefits and Considerations

This approach offers several benefits:

  1. Enhanced Relationship Dynamics: It provides an opportunity for meaningful romantic or sexual connections outside the primary polyamorous relationships while maintaining the integrity of the network.

  2. Flexibility in Commitment: Members can formally commit to their Partnerships through marriage, acknowledging and celebrating their special connection.

  3. Clear Boundaries: It allows Partnerships to maintain their role within the polycule while fostering additional intimate relationships.

This model introduces a structured yet flexible way to manage relationships within polyamorous groups, enriching the experience for all involved.

Mainly for like closed polys yk

To be completely transparent, there are two individuals within my partnership network whom I was certain I wanted to marry. However, given my deep capacity for love and connection, it would not surprise me if I ultimately find myself wanting to marry many of my partnerships. My affection for people is profound and encompassing.

    None of them are aware of my new online presence after I was IP banned from Reddit. I haven’t explicitly mentioned it, aside from hinting that I found a new platform. However, if they come across my account and recognize it’s me, they are absolutely welcome to reach out!

    I was IP banned from Reddit after inquiring about a specific type of job in the military, so now I’ve moved to this platform.

      Lmao, absolute bullshit. Every word you’ve ever written is a creative writing exercise; you don’t have forty-nine partners, you’ve never invented tactical gear baby clothes, you’re either way too bored and need a real hobby, or else you are in dire need of professional help.

        On May 1st, I had 49 partners, but this number changed on May 9th late at night. On May 22nd, during our party, we added Ari to our group. Then, on June 26th, at another party, one of my celebrity crushes joined us. On June 28th, we added someone my partners had anticipated. Following this, on July 9th at 9 PM, we welcomed his cousin. On July 12th, we added Adam. The remaining three partners joined us recently.

        Interestingly, the number of people in my polyamorous group has changed over time. I once had 49 partners, but as of today, I am married to 59 people. Recently, we were at the park with my master when some acquaintances from their old high school approached us. One person behaved rudely, leading their friend to reveal their true feelings. Due to their personality, I invited them to join us. Additionally, I asked my adorable partnership, Kitty, to join, and she instantly agreed. Yesterday, I asked my dominant partnership to join and be my wife exclusively.

        As yes I engage in various forms of writing, such as theses, books, and poems. The experiences I share are genuine, and regardless of others’ perceptions, my aim is to show that people don’t need to conform to societal norms; they can create their own reality. Just as I have established a new system, others can too.
