ORIGINAL: slavejali i think the point is more (in regards to having a husband and Master..or wife and slave) Scenario one: your husband(wife) and your Master(Mistress) have a car accident, they both need rehabiliation and care, where does your sense of responsibility go to? Who do you care for? Scenario Two: Your husband(wife) and your Master (Mistress) both have an important business function they require you to attend on the same night. Where do your loyalties lay? Who do you attend with? Scenario Three: Youve just had a session with your slave, your wife is expecting you home as you are having guests, perhaps relatives you havent seen in two years. Your sub goes into sub drop and really needs you? Where do your loyalties lay? Where are you gonna be in two hours? Scenario Three: Your submissive has just lost a relative in a car accident, your wife has just lost someone close to her...where do your responsibilities lay? How can this be managed, they both need you at the same time.. etc etc etc you get the idea... Some of these situations are unavoidable becuase they are accidents though frankly I think it highly unlikely that such accidents would occur at the same time. Replace two adults partners with your husband and your child -- or your husband and your parent or your best friends -- the choices you need to make are the same. The other situations are a matter of planning and time management that might be best dealt with via open communication from all parties involved. In my experience of being poly for almost 14 years now, I've never had such conflicts arise. If they had everyone I've been with knows my legal and religiously recognized marriage takes first priority. Again, the expectations are there, join if you can agree with them or go away from me. Since you, slavejali, have no interest in being poly, what is the purpose of you asking these scenarios? Is it to try and convince others their choices are ill-formed? Or is the issue of poly being raised in your own life and you are feeling confused and worried about it? Or is there another reasons I can't think of?
