World Game-ChangersMonogamy or Polygamy? Paul D. Lowe & Lyn Smith
This episode of the World Game-Changers podcast is actually an episode of The Hearts Entwined podcast that Paul was a guest on. Host, Lyn Smith talks to Paul (her ex-partner) about the pros and cons of both monogamy or polygamy.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- There’s so much pressure around what you should & shouldn’t say. A lot of people I speak to feel stifled & constrained by a lack of freedom to express themselves in case they’re perceived as being judged.
- The physical side of what we do is the base level, it’s easy. The next level up is how you connect with people in a relationship mentally, the next level up is the emotional where you get deep and intimate. But right at the top of everything is the spiritual.
- A friend of mine mentioned they were in a polyamorous relationship a few days ago. I didn’t judge it or pass comment but I wondered why it made me react the way I did.
- If people cheat it’s blatantly obvious what the situation is, there’s betrayal there. But when you’re sharing secrets & intimacies around emotions that only two people know between each other, that ‘pillow talk’ becomes devalued by becoming second-hand.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I consider sharing an intimate sex act with somebody as a sacred act in its own right. Sharing a sex act is the ultimate act of intimacy with somebody I wouldn’t want it diluted by having multiple partners.’
‘A lot of people that I speak to who are in polyamorous relationships seem to be doing it because they feel they won’t get as emotionally invested, perhaps because they’ve been hurt in the past & don’t want to get hurt again in the future.’
‘I don’t want to dilute the sacredness of sharing sexual intimacy by sleeping with many different partners.’
‘If there’s an underlying feeling that you’re not enough, I can only think that that is compounded if your partner, or you, has decided you want multiple partners.’
VALUABLE RESOURCES
- Speaking From Our Hearts Books: Volumes 1-3 (Available on Amazon)
