Briefly News spoke to relationship coach and founder of Engaged Humans, Paula Quinsee about how some polygamous relationships are successful despite misconceptions about polygamous marriages. She said:
"Polygamy is not a common form of relationship encountered on a daily basis and it does carry a different dynamic to a marriage which requires a level of emotional maturity and good communication channels to be in place.
"It’s important to set clear expectations regarding roles, responsibilities, and emotional needs from the start so that everyone knows where they stand and there is openness and transparency in the relationship.
"Creating a safe space for all partners to express their feelings and concerns without fear of judgment or lashback is an important part of the process, and this type of relationship dynamic. And that partners actively listen to each other’s feelings and needs to build safety, understanding and connection."
