hi tara. your question is an excellent one.. and one that tends to divide bisexuals into two clearly distinct catagories of Monos and Polys..
some bisexuals are totally happy being in a monogamous relationship with one or the other.. (this is where i fit in)
yet some can't feel totally satisfied unless they have one of each concurrently..
this can certainly make things challenging when a bisexual is dating a non-bisexual. some partners are willing to share and some aren't. it actually can be quite sad as there are tons of bisexuals out there in a straight marriage, yet they cheat on their spouse with a same sex "friend with benefits".
the other side is that the Poly bisexual remains faithful to their spouse, yet feels their relationship is 50% empty.
to my amazement, there are tons of people who are totally ok with their bi spouse having a same sex fling on the side.. this would never work for me.
i once asked on a bisexual forum about the importance of having a bisexual partner, and most agreed that it was very important or beneficial to their relationship. bisexuals who are together can totally relate to the bi feelings..
for me, i find men and women attractive. but all i've ever wanted is ONE person to love.
I think the next question i have, would be: what percentage of bisexuals fall under the Mono catagory and what percentage fall under the Poly catagory? from what i have seen on various bisexual websites, it seems as though more lean towards the poly side.. however, this is just a very small sampling.

That'a a stereotype, i'm bi yet i wouldn't in any respect date a woman and a guy on the comparable time,no longer in spite of in the event that they have been cool with it reason in the top somebody or all of us gets harm(all those thoughts,one courting is complicated adequate you do no longer did extra chaos by potential of attempting to juggle 2 or combining them into one),ya comprehend i think of it particularly is like cheating,this is incorrect. So, yeah i might date a bisexual, i does not get jealous much less stressful reason the guy i pick may be somebody i no i will have confidence.

I'm bisexual, and I intend to be completely monogamous. Some bisexuals, like gays and straights, choose to be polyamorous, and that's okay, too (so long as they don't cheat and everyone involved knows what's going on), but just because you're bisexual does NOT mean you are necessarily going to want to have more than one partner. There are tons of happily married, monogamous bisexuals, just as well as there are those who feel they need both sexes to be complete.

No, when I'm in a relationship I don't go around looking for someone else. One person is always enough for me. I know what the stereotype is though, so I can see why you asked.
It would make my dating life a whole lot easier if lesbians stopped believing this stereotype. Do you think you could pass the word along? It would widen the playing field for me. Thanks! :) lol

Myself, I'm totally monogamous. I currently have a boyfriend and I'm devoted to him. Just because I'm bisexual, it doesn't make me a polygamist. Being bisexual doesn't mean I'm insatiable, it just means I could have a serious relationship with either a male or a female.

No one fits the mold and each person is an individual..what they do is their business and probably not open for everyone to see. I have no idea what they do but why would you care about what others are doing??

Tara,
In my personal experience. When I am dating someone and I enjoy their company I am not looking for an "upgrade." For me one person is enough if they are the right person. For me this means that they must be a wonderful friend and there must be sexual chemistry-- they must be as crazy about me as I am about them.

I am bi and I goe out with only one person at a time. Just because I am bi does'nt give me the right to cheat.

JUST BECAUSE A PERSON IS BI DOESN'T MEAN THEY ARE PROMISCUOUS THAT'S JUST LIKE SAYING IF YOUR STRAIGHT AND HAVE A BOYFRIEND YOUR HAPPY WITH WOULD YOU LOOK FOR ANOTHER ONE
