feelings of envy and left out

I'm curious if there's any guys out there living this lifestyle reading this, I would love to see your profile, if you don't mind sharing. you could p.m. me or post it on here whatever you're comfortable with..

There is no "lifestyle" to polyamory imo. I hate that word to be honest. Everyone of us does polyamory differently.

I have been successfully having poly relationships for 7 years now. I have been in my current relationships 15 and 5 years. Honestly online dating did not work for me. I had much much more success in real life. And I am in the middle of podunk, conservative coal country of Pennsylvania. I live a 45 minutes to an hour from any sorts of civilization beyond Walmart.

I have found no issues finding partners. I could add more if I wanted to, but I am content with my guys. But I also get out and socialize without my spouses.

There's nothing wrong with online dating but sometimes it is useful to have more avenues of approach.
 
Your profile gives a much more inviting vibe now, but a few more suggestions:

1. Shift the focus to what you have to offer, as opposed to how much you get out of relationships. Yes, you can mention that relationships are fulfilling for you, but just as you would in a cover letter for a job, you want to emphasize your assets and why you'd be a benefit to a prospective partner. Your creativity, spirituality and emotional availability are attractive qualities to many women. some people don;t do this because they fell they are bragging, but there's an art to conveying your attractive qualities that sounds inviting. You need not learn this art from other poly men's profiles. Look around at what other people on OKC write and get a feel for how it's done. There are millions of mediocre profiles on there, so the engaging ones really stand out.

2. You should message me if:
"You are interested to connect with me, not to judge me."

Don't mention judgement because it's defensive and negative, just having it there. Write from the perspective that polyamory is a loving, positive experience and just delete if you get any messages from finger waggers. Your profile is all about giving women a sense of YOU, not just writing factual information, so set the right tone and be proud of your life choices. Also, every other guy (and woman, probably) answers this question as you've done ("if you like what you see, etc. etc. etc.") Consider using this opportunity to stand out, show more personality and say something like "If you're ready for the time of your life" or something that reveals your sense of humor.

To find profiles of poly guys on OKC - do a search there! Go take a peak on their profiles. There are plenty of such profiles. For your purposes it does not matter where the guy is located - I understand you are straight and only interested in dating women.

I did a search within 50 mile radius of me, there are only 50 women in a open,poly,or non monogomous relationship, and so many pages of guys looking for same, I can't even count that are in open relationships
I know I'm going to be single for awhile it's just going to take me awhile I have to prepare myself
