There is a fine story called "Love is not a Pie" -- one of the "Best American Short Stories" from the early 1990s, I think. I agree with it, but... time is a pie. Alas. There is only so much time I can spend in a day with someone. (And in my case, it's significantly less because I am a hardcore introvert and take a lot of "alone time" to recharge.)

So while I can see in theory how polyamory could work, in practice I think the difficulties are significant, and even more so if you have kids (who take -- and need -- a lot of time).

It makes a nice fantasy, though.
