"I Have a Monopoly on Self Love"

by Jeph Johnson

 

They say you have to love yourself first before anyone else will love you.

 

Okay, I love myself.

 

Now, suppose I find someone and I start loving her.

 

Even if I don't take on another lover,

Wouldn't that make me polyamorous,

Since I would then be loving more than one person?

 

I am only monogamous when I am alone.

I think it is more like, you have to love yourself first which helps you love another better. Pretty sure your scenario doesn't make you Polly. Unless what you mean by loving yourself is masturbation. Then... Maybe.

I suppose you're right

There's always a shift in meaning because polyamorous refers to love and monogamous refers to sex.  But to answer your question. Yes, I masturbate,  so my words still apply!

Ha!

That made me laugh out loud. Thanks for that.
