I like to point it out very clearly that if a relationships isn't monogamous then it's an open relationship. Polyamory is an open relationship. As fair as you are sharing your partner with someone else with their consent, you are in an open relationship.

Whether you are happy in poly or not isn't the question. The main concept of poly or open relationship is that it's consensual.

Swings and unicorn hunters are terms we use to confuse ourselves but they are all under open relationships.
