People are getting involved in polyamory or many are already poly but hiding their-selves, so better to open a discussion and know what people think about it..
In this case,each and every one of us is vulnerable.It looks like,we are going to be having,a weekly STD clearance,presenting it, to one and only bed partner,just in case one of us gone astray.So 2 of them talking in bed before the start. Clear honney,yes dear all clear, Lets do it.- I call it partial enthusiasm,in doubt.
2intrigued: Believe it or not, people can get STD's while using the "hood" It's true...look it up
nevica: Having 2 lovers at a time is not more dangerous for STD than having 2 lovers one after another.
This is true although for me personally, I tend towards staying with one partner and if things don't work out, I won't jump into another relationship right away. If I were to get an STD, I'll know who gave it to me.

Well I always want ed to die with a big grin on my face ...
The special about any open relationships that you may start a new relationship when old still works, and continues work. In a traditional relationship you can get STD of a new partner as well, even if he had only one partner before you and has no symptoms. The best way is not get STD att all, test all involved before you start anything new.

Thats exactly was a suggested in my post #6..running every week to get a clearance STD certificate, just in case the regular bed partners gone astray with somebody else.

I've got better things to do with my time than to visit the doctor every week to get tested and certified "clean"

That’s again the old the MYTH among traditional people that all polyamoric people are promiscuous. I don't know anyone in an open relationship who goes astray as all is done openly, and definitely not a new partner every week, once a year more close to the truth. I read in Swedish forums how Swedes are dating , they sleep with 30-300 partners during their adult life and that’s ok, they are just looking for love. I am not even close to that number and have no interest to be.

most of my relationships have been open relationships
my thought is one day the partner who I love to the exclusion of the others will be a committed partner but he must feel the same. but he does not know where I am right now
this can work well if you are not at a time in life where there is not a strong need for an exclusive commitment
if someone does want a commitment and I do not I will not continue to see him and give him a wrong idea of the future

I think men have played this game for centuries and they will continue to...whatever name you want to call it. In more modern times I would think we are trying to be more fair and civilized about it in giving women an equal and fair opportunity should they choose it. I am not sure it's a good thing it's all out in the open though.....people's feelings are bound to get hurt. It's a complicated scenario and people by nature are competitive, possessive, jealous, egotistical, territorial, self-interested and driven, and so to be so selfless is unnatural to most, maybe even confusing to some.... The real root of the problem there is that men are enemies not brothers.

We all tend to place people into certain slots, according to our own belief,s to what is right /wrong....as an adult..living this kind of life suits them and they are happy,,,,and not a burden to others....we should not be so judgemental....on others actions.....jmo.
