epic fight between me (polyamorous aromantic) and the phrase "you're the only one for me"

I went to a polyam meeting last month and found it uncomfortably difficult to relate to the straight members, especially the men, who sneered at triads, saying they don't exist. Finding the queer members who were more open was a relief and it echoed the appeal of the very first polyam meeting I ever went to. I guess the alienation I feel from straight people only gets doubled when they choose polyamory yet do their utmost to keep it straight.
“Triads don't exist,” lol. Sounds like they either got called out for being problematic unicorn hunters and now rigidly stick to the “rules”, or their bi wife/gf enforced boundaries over not letting them sleep with their gf and they’re bitter over it.
And yeah, same. I much prefer queer polyam spaces over straight ones. It's amazing how rigidly a lot of them try to straighten out polyamory and claim that they’re the dominant demographic of polyam folks, when historically it’s been the bi/pan, queer, trans community behind it. Try to tell them that though and they get super bitchy.
They’re the same people that insist polyamory is a relationship structure choice and not an orientation (which is valid, for some people it is) but if a queer person frames it as being inherent to how they experience their queerness, that's Wrong and Bad and Manipulative. It's wild.
I’m glad you found people to hang out with.

Perhaps he may not have two legs, but he sure has two hands.

ACTUALLY polyamory is six people yelling at you to drink water and tea and take a nap when you’re sick
I’m only dating two of them

Tried monogamy after being polyamorous my entire adult life and then a little.
My findings are as follows -
0/10, would never recommend.
Mono guys seem to lie and cheat as much or more than poly guys.
Monogamy is solely used by men to control every aspect of a woman's life, often with no return on her investment and no reciprocity. You, as a woman, are not allowed to do anything or even breathe without his permission, but he shall do as he pleases with impunity. And God forbid you bring up the hypocritical behaviors, then you'll really face his wrath.
He will be allowed to come and go as he pleases, and you will never be allowed to question his secretive behaviors, but if you so much as text your male coworker, 'you're a cheating whore.'
Tl;dr- monogamy is garbage, would not recommend

So I've been wondering for at least a year if I might be polyamorous, and today on my birthday my queue dredged up two posts that mention polyamory. Perhaps 'tis a sign

Not sure what I was expecting this morning, but it wasn't finding out that Carol Vorderman (British celebrity) is non-monogamous and in a relationship with an astronaut, but yeah, sure. Why not?

Some clarifications before the wrong person finds this post and accuses me of shipping things I don’t:
1. I don’t ship Len and Rin, because I personally hc them as siblings. They both date everyone else within the polycule, but not each other. But if you don’t hc them as siblings, then idk, yeah they all date.
2. For Scooby Doo himself, no, I don’t ship the dog with the group members romantically or anything like that. He is a platonic partner. Or just. A dog. He’s not part of the dynamic the way everyone else is.
3. Mane 6 is perfect idc they’re all dating <3
Anyways they’re all partners now, you can stop the fighting, the ship wars can be over. They’re all together. It’s canon because I said so. <3

I feel like some of yall who talk about polyamory dont actually know what "bringing another person into our relationship" actually means cause it is so much more complicated than that and includes alot more than just one person dating more people.
Heres your image: person a and person b are in a relationship while person c is dating person a with everyone's knowing consent.
That is not bringing someone "into your relationship" because person c has no influence on the relationship between person a and person b. They dont have any chips on the table. They dont have any say in their long term decisions such as children, marriage or moving situations. Person c may know about it and it may affect them to a mild degree but they dont have any say in that relationship.
Next image: person a and person b are in a relationship while person c is dating both person a and person b with everyone's knowing consent.
This is also not " bringing someone into your relationship" as the relationship between person a and person c as well as the relationship between person b and person c dose not interact with the relationship between person a and person b. These can still be 3 different relationships and person c still dosent have a say in what person a and person b decide.
Imagine this relationship as three pegs sticking out of a piece of wood with a rubber band wrapped between each peg. Although there are places where the rubber bands attacted to peg/person c do just barely touch the rubber band between peg/person a and peg/person b, peg/person c still isnt in that rubber band. They are still excluded.
The only time your genuinely "bringing someone into the relationship" is when you get rid of all the little rubber bands and wrap all three pegs/people in one big rubber band. This means that person c dose have a say in what happens and although there still are remininets of the other rubber bands that binded each person to one other person, all persons are mostly dependent and loving towards the big rubber band that binds them all together as 3 instead of 2+.
So yes, there is a difference between both members of a couple dating the same person and bringing someone in your existing relationship to become 3. Yes you can still have the little things that only exist between 2 partners but the main relationship is 3 people. Your a throuple, not just 2 people dating the same third person.
I know its kinda complicated but theres a difference in my opinion between seeing yourself as dating 2 people seperately and being all together as a throuple.

:33< "polyam relationships don't last more than a week, the one I was in didn't last a few days" have you considered that you're the problem and that you (monogamous people) need to stop forcing themselves into polyamory just to bitch about it
