That's the whole thing about being bi, silly! They have twice the options as those of us that associate ourselves to be gay or lesbian rather than bi. To say "most" date both at one time, however, I think is an overestimate.

If you investigate more deeply, I think you'll find that a great deal of bisexuals are committed to serial monogamy, and that quite a few straight and gays are polygamous. It's more publicized in the bisexual community because 1) the option is there and 2) many bisexuals feel that they have two halves, both of which need to be satisfied in order to be a whole person. For many, they feel their bisexuality is not acknowledged unless they are demonstrating that bisexuality by threesome relationships. It's possible that the relationships might be the bisexual's way of comparing the sexes and his/her own 'degree' of attraction to each, or merely a backup plan should the other not work out. Oftentimes, it won't be seen as cheating or an affair, because the sexes are different, therefore the bisexual isn't seeking the same thing, but something different not being fulfilled. These are all possible answers. But I repeat that many bisexuals are happily monogamous.

This is why I only date lesbians, I am not even the least bit interested in bi women because they do think it is ok to date both sexes at the same time and think that nobody will mind, or get hurt. Good question.

It seems that being bisexual is correlated to an attitude that casual sex, one night stands and things are OK. Mabye there are a lot of bisexuals out there with more traditional ideas (date one person at a time) and most of them haven't even explored the other part of their bisexuality. If a person doesn't believe in having sex until marriage, then they might never explore their bisexuality. It's simpler to stick with the norm if you're only going to date one at a time. So, in summary, I believe there are a lot of bisexuals out there who only date one person at a time, but don't know or don't care that they're bi. Oh yeah... and the guys are stupid enough to put up with their girl dating another girl. :) Just ignorant you know.

If it's done with the full knowledge and acceptance of all three people why wouldn't it be okay? I knew a lady in San Diego who settled down with a man and a women, she refers to them as her wife and husband, and their relationship is still going strong after over twenty years. How many couples, straight or gay, can make a similar claim? If it would bother you, it's not right for you, that is entirely your choice, just as doing it another way is someone else's, it continues to amaze me how the same people who complain when others knock their lifestyle, are quickest to jump in and knock someone else's. Shouldn't those seeking acceptance be more giving of it?

no longer that i'm a guy needless to say, yet yeah it is perplexing for us BI's. a great variety of persons are basically insecure with themselves and that they are afraid that us liking the two intercourse's will deliver approximately a miles better hazard persons cheating or leaving them. ladies may well be added information, yet in addition lots extra strict. in case you're with a guy and additionally you look at a female they are no longer as threatened as once you're relationship a woman and additionally you look at yet another female. i comprehend i'm lots extra choosy with reference to the girls I date than the adult adult males.

Polyamoury vs Monogamy, isn't about sexual orientation at all. Different people have different preferences. I've met straight people that had multiple relationships going on at once (that's polyamorous) and I've met monogamous bi sexual, lesbians, gay men, etc. everyone is different and does their own thing.
As far as your question goes, its okay that you wouldn't want to be in a polyamorous relationship. That's your call, just like it's your friend's call (and her partner's). As long as everyone is agreed and informed on what's going on then it is all good.

I don't feel that way. I generally only date one person at a time. If they are okay with multiples in the bedroom I will usually go for that however. I enjoy group s e x but I only emotionally connect with the person I'm dating. I'm a weirdo I guess.
