Hello there. I’ve been in normal relationships throughout my life but in the last year I’ve come to realise that I’m polyamorous. Is there a general fear in people that puts them off of guys like this because it seems to be running trend of people saying they don’t know if they would want to meet someone that is poly. Any thoughts from anyone?  |

I think your tag line is probably more of an issue OP " Poly and tri-sexual. Will try anything once"
I generally don't like putting my head above the parapet, for a man saying your in a poly relationship your exposing your self to criticism.
But I think there are lots of people here that are looking for something more meaningful than just a shag, but don't what to advertise, or say there poly. |

I think sometimes people use the term polyamorous loosely and without understanding what it actually means. Those people give poly people a bad name because they don’t regard people’s feelings and are poor communicators.
On the other hand polyamory sounds equal measures fantastic and exhausting to me. I only have enough time in my life for one partner at a time 😂 |

I would imagine anyone put off by a polygamous male would most likely be monogamous. And although you sometimes get a monogamous person in a relationship with a polygamous person it's rare because most monogamous people require their partner to be monogamous too.
Then from a point of polyamory I think for most people the devil is in the detail. I think most people want to see exactly what your vision of polyamory is and if that aligns with theirs. Because people do have different ideas of what polyamory is or simply looking for different formats that your vision may not fall in.
I would say if you've just started on this path explore what it means to you and how you see your life going forward. Not only does it give you a compass to set off on it also helps you articulate to others what you seek. And like everthing there's an element of trial and error as you work stuff out on the go.
