    And this is exactly why obsessive polygamy is actually pretty toxic when you think about it. This kind of experience could also reasonably lead back to your partner, along with a renewed sense of dedication, if such a lapse of judgement was tolerated the way basically every other misstep in a marriage or serious relationship is tolerated.

    I see couples forgive way worse shit than a bit of meaningless infidelity on a routine basis.

      I’m not sure what you mean by obsessive polygamy.

      Do you mean people who feel strongly about having multiple wives or husbands? People who have many previous marriages? People who obsessively collect spouses? 😄
