The process of dating more than one person, with each person's knowledge and consent. Often there are extended conversations about boundaries between each couple, triple, quartet or so on. Oh yes, in polyamory not everyone needs to date everyone. So Tom could be dating Jerry, Samantha and George, George could be dating Jerry, Connor and Tom, but not Samantha, Samantha could be dating Tom and Betty but not Jerry, George or Connor and so on and so forth. Also, monogamous people can be in relationships with polyamorus people, so for example Connor might only date George, and not desire to date anyone else, while still being okay with George dating others.
