In regards to the text, people are surprisingly open if you’re dating around so long as you make that clear upfront. Yes it will turn some people away, but then you can completely avoid situations like this.

If I have to mislead someone, I don’t want to be in that situation. Polyamory isn’t my way, but I don’t see anything wrong with it … So long as everyone involved is aware of, and has agreed to, the arrangement.
I haven’t met many polyamorous couples, but of those I have, the primary issue is that one of the parties has agreed under some form of duress. That’s obviously not okay.
My personal philosophy has always been that everyone involved must provide informed consent and no permanent damage, especially physical, may be caused. There will always be outlying concerns, but those are the things that seem to matter to me.
