I've seen people mention that they are are seeking a couple rather than individual relationships....so I'm just curious as to what the reasoning is for not wanting individual relatiionships...
There is truth to this. However, it works better for some couples than others.I'm not one of those couples.
However,
the ones I've met in r/l-were doing it in order to avoid "jealousy" issues that arise when one partner feels that it's "unfair" if their spouse has another partner, but they don't.

I've talked to so many poly couples who really don't have a handle on jealousy or time management.
I've dated single guys and also tried to get with several men who were in so-called open non-mono relationships, who disappointed me with their poor communication skills with me and their female partner. Also, married couples often have kids, full time jobs and really not all that much time to date, even tho they are on ok cupid posting away about wanting another person in their life.
Great answers.
sigh... LR, it's so rough you and maca and GG lived together for 10 (!) years and maca never got a handle on his jealousy/possessiveness. Yet there he is with a girlfriend himself! Argh.
Yes, that's tough. I admit, LR, I was quite surprised to read that he's been involved with her for almost a year.

I don't have anything against couples who date couples... just curious as to whether people have had success in it. I totally can see why a single might want a couple... more people to love and share the connection with - just having a hard time wrapping my head around couples with couples?
