My girlfriend of six years has mentioned she may want to pursue a polyamory lifestyle. I don't want to have a swinging lifestyle, but I also don't want to lose my girlfriend. Should I at least consider it?
You would have to consider it in order to say no. The question is whether you give it serious consideration or if your initial instinct is to say no.
Swinging and polyamory isn't the same thing. Swinging is more recreational and casual and it is about sex. Polyamory is when there are more than two people in a relationship together that has some length. So it's three people living as two people would.
Google polyamory and read up on what it is and what it isn't then you'll be able to give your girlfriend a more informed no...if you decide that's what you want to do.
