The starvation of intimacy thing is the only reason I would consider a poly relationship because I've only ever been with one woman who had a sex drive close to mine. I could have easily gave it to 2-3 of any of the other women I've been with as often as they wanted without anyone missing out. I also am fair minded/hypocritical about it though and if I was was allowed to sleep with other people so can they and I'm not interested in a relationship with a woman who sleeps with other dudes so it wouldn't work. Also doubt I could meet the emotional needs of more than one at a time as I'm terrible at that. I guess that's what polygamy is for though, the man gets all the benefits and the woman is locked into it more. So that's shitty.
