One would have to be incredibly disciplined to servive such a tangled web. I know for myself just how trying it can be to keep the peace with just one partner let alone serveral partners ... I would imagine the waters could get pretty rough at times. Not only would you have to deal with your husband but all his wives. Gosh ... imagine the cat fights!
We often only here about the problems that arise from such relationships from the adults involved, I wonder how children of these types of relationships feel.
You give to the world when you're giving your best to somebody else.
