Last time I checked, that's just called polyamory. The thing where they don't know is called cheating. We don't need a qualifier pushing a conservative narrative of what love is.

Poly means relationships, enm is just sex.

Isn't "open relationship/marriage" a term for that?

Yes, and also polyamory.

People like their little labels and they like having the one that makes them feel the specialist.

Hey bro, I went to school for years to become the specialist.
