4 Challenges In Polygamous Relationships And How To Avoid Them

General

People who have more than one spouse may be referred to as polygamists. In the U.S., more than one marriage is not officially considered “legal” and/or binding. In some other parts of the world, however, it is quite common. Through various means – legal or not – many people practice polygamy.

Whereas polygamy relationships function by a certain set of rules, and all parties involved agree to the lifestyle, this is not to say that problems don't arise. Anytime you have two or more people in a relationship, issues are bound to come up. It's human nature.

Here we will examine ways in which to deal with some of the problems that may arise within polygamy relationships. If you're interested in a polygamous way of life, these are just a handful of things you may want to watch out and prepare for. This way, you may be able to avoid them altogether, or at least deal with them successfully.

Problems or Something Else

"Perception" is everything. If you perceive something as a problem, it is more likely to be one. The human mind has the power to transform something that isn't actually a problem yet into a real setback. Some individuals tend to make big issues out of small issues. Surely, you've heard of someone making a “mountain out of a mole hill.” That's what's being referred to here.

How you and the others in your relationship view a small issue will have everything to do with whether or not it becomes a big problem. If you can head trouble off before it escalates, you stand a better chance of resolving your disputes.

Openness and honesty are of the utmost importance in any relationship – but particularly where polygamy is concerned. Everyone must feel comfortable discussing their concerns with the other parties. The other parties, in return, have to remain open and be as empathetic and understanding as possible. Hopefully, together, everyone can work toward a common goal – a successful polygamous relationship.

Typical Problems

Not surprisingly, some of the most typical problems encountered in polygamous relationships revolve around a handful of emotions:

• Jealousy and competitiveness

• Excessive neediness of one or more parties

• Financial problems (lots of people living on not enough income)

• Scheduling enough time with all parties concerned

Suffering in Relationships

In any relationship – and in life in general – pain is more or less inevitable. What's optional, however, is suffering needlessly from that pain. If you simply cannot overcome the feelings discussed here, you may be participating in the wrong lifestyle or you may be with the wrong person(s). Carefully evaluate your situation to discover your best course of action.
