For me, I've never understood polygamy or polyandry.  One at a time
was always too much for me.   But then I was always best alone.  It
just took me a number of decades to realize it.  It would have been
nice if someone had shown me when I was younger that I was different,
that I wasn't going to fit the standard mold.  I might have saved
myself and a few others a fair deal of heartbreak.
