Would you say your close friends view monogamy like you do and at least seem to be similar in libido? I ask because people tend to associate with like-minded folks and I personally couldn't imagine being friends with a horn-dog.

Yes, except for one friend but we ignore that and continue being friends.

You can't imagine being friends with a horn-dog? Chances are, you are friends with a horn-dog and you just don't know it. Some people are horn-dogs discreetly.

I guess all my close friends are monogamous, since most of them are in a relationship. The libido part, I wouldn't know for sure; seems too personal to inquire about.

My friends are similar to me due to elevated levels of testosterone...it's always on our minds constantly though we seldom get the chance to act on it. Still can think it though. We love women who make us horny.

I don't know about my friends' libidos, but the vast majority of my friends aren't/weren't lotharios or party girls or people who slept around a lot. Now many are in long-term relationships or married. The single people will date for a while, then be single for a while--nobody's really ever had the revolving door of prospects that's brought up so often on this board. We're pretty much all on the same page in that respect.

Not really. Pretty much all over the map for both libido and monogamy.

Same here. My friends are varied and pretty much all completely different.

My friends are pretty diverse - as far as I know! I know a lot of polyamorous people who practice responsible non-monogamy, and many who follow traditional monogamy. I don't know many cheaters - I tend to avoid people with ethical problems. I don't hear a lot about their libidos in most cases, but some share in great detail - and some I've experienced myself.In terms of like-minded, I think political perspectives play a far greater role, and I tend to spend much more time with liberal people. It also seems that spiritual beliefs play a role - or they are simply not discussed and not an issue.

What does monogamy and non-monogamy have to do with libido?

I have both monogamous and non-monogamous friends. He'll, I had an open marriage toward the end with my ex. I know quite a few poly folks.

I prefer to be friends with like-minded folks in terms of political/social ideologies and spiritual beliefs (or non-beliefs).
