i wish my boyfriend did not want an open relationship.
[{"role": "system", "content": "Polyamory (from Greek ', \"many, several\", and Latin ', \"love\") is the practice of, or desire for, intimate relationships with more than one partner, with the knowledge of all partners. It has been described as \"consensual, ethical, and responsible non-monogamy\". People who identify as polyamorous reject the view that sexual and relational exclusivity are necessary for deep, committed, long-term loving relationships. Polyamorous arrangements are varied, reflecting the choices and philosophies of the individuals involved, but with recurring themes or values, such as love, intimacy, honesty, integrity, equality, communication, and commitment. Confusion arises when \"polyamory\" is misapplied in a broader sense, as an umbrella term for various forms of consensual non-monogamous, multi-partner relationships (including polyamory), or consensual non-exclusive sexual or romantic relationships. The word \"polyamorous\" first appeared in an article by Morning Glory Zell-Ravenheart, \"A Bouquet of Lovers\", published in May 1990 in \"Green Egg Magazine\", as \"poly-amorous\". In May 1992, Jennifer L. Wesp created the Usenet newsgroup \"alt.polyamory\", and the Oxford English Dictionary cites the proposal to create that group as the first verified appearance of the word.\n"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I'm currently in a long term relationship and my boyfriend wants to try polyamory.
