"Why artificially limit love?": how polyamores live
Noni — polyamore. She has two boyfriends, and she has a serious relationship with both guys. A 23-year-old girl from North Berwick, Scotland, says she feels trapped in a monogamous relationship, no matter how much she loves her partner.
Polyamory is an opportunity to have several affairs at the same time with the consent of all partners. Noni says that this may include non-monogamous practices, such as swing, but for the girl herself, the relationship with a person is in the foreground. Noni is dating Morgan, a 27-year-old administrator, and Oliver, a 24-year-old theater school graduate.
The girl met Morgan on Tinder a few years ago. At that time, the guy was dating a girl named Hanni, and they are still together.
According to Morgan, Hanni is currently dating no one else but him, but she is happy for her boyfriend and his relationship with Noni.
Oliver is Morgan's meta. Meta is a polyamorous term that refers to the partner of your lover, with whom you have neither sexual nor romantic relationships. Oliver and Noni have been dating for about a year and a half. They met at the Fringe Arts Festival in Edinburgh a couple of years ago and started dating after participating in a show together in 2016. Oliver says Noni immediately told him she was polyamorous.
However, Oliver admits that he thought for a long time before starting a relationship with a person who already has a partner.
Due to the fact that their relationship is open, Oliver is free for other girls and can date anyone.
Noni says she would be glad if Oliver met some nice girl.
Noni sees Oliver much more often because they live nearby, but she also talks to Morgan every day. The girl claims that she does not have a favorite, and the relationship with each guy is completely different.
A very important aspect in polyamory is protection from sexually transmitted diseases.
Although Noni is only 23 years old, she insists that polyamory is the lifestyle she wants to adhere to, and does not believe that this will somehow prevent her from starting a family in the future.
Noni argues that although polyamory is not a new thing, it is still taboo.
