This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yes, 30s upward seems to peak "Xilf" age for the decade below them. Women in polyamorous-spaces are very pursued and, compared to mono-spaces, the men in it are much more likely to be knowledgeable on relationship-health. There is also more emotional intelligence, and tools and systems for working through it (they virtually all work in monogamous relationships too, but because there are more moving parts people seem to care more for preventative measures than just being reactionary).

I think it’s more natural selection than choices. You can do multiple bad relationships at once, but you’re unlikely to enjoy it enough to keep trying.

I would say that's true, but I have direct experience with this being in the community and know otherwise.
