That seems both impractical and likely to ruin any mood.
Instead of, "Hold on, I have to get a condom." It is now, "Let's take you down to the clinic and get you tested!"
Then, as they likely have multiple partners as well, you end up needing a constant stream of blood tests. In short, it's risky behavior.
You can do it, it's not up to me to judge. But, it seems like a lot more work than just committing to one person and remaining faithful to that one person.
- colanderman 9y agoWhat? First, condoms prevent or reduce the risk of contracting most STDs (including HIV) [1]. Second, you're confusing polyamory (a few committed relationships) with promiscuity (many non-committed sexual partners).

Of partners my partner and I have dated together, all appreciated the sentiment and none of them turned down getting tested before festivities. No one has said no, nor thought it was an awkward request. Your mileage may vary. > You can do it, it's not up to me to judge. But, it seems like a lot more work than just committing to one person and remaining faithful to that one person. I prefer my life richer over easier. Life is brief and once, better to not waste it.
- KGIII 9y agoHmm... One of us has their wires crossed. If you're just with a couple other people, I don't see that as cheating - so long as they're all okay with it. I see cheating as being with a different partner. Unless I got confused, cheating was the subject? That and, it's okay to have sex with multiple consenting people. You don't need my permission, of course. However, I've nary a problem with it. I've been in similar situations, where we shared and shared alike. It's all good, so long as everyone consents.
