Some poly and swing people have a rule that their extra partners cannot be from the same city that they are in and that rule keeps your main primary relationship special. Other people also have rules that you won't use the same labels on all your partners. "Sweetie, honey, weasle, muffinbaby, etc...". Some people even have a rule against having extra partners even in the same state. Rhode Island and Connecticut are small states and to restrict things in a good way, that is the rule people can use. Another swing couple I know have a sci-fi convention rule, where they only swing with other sci-fi friends that they have met and so they only have sex outside their marriage once or twice a year.
