flwydMonogamy is the relationship version of bivalent logic. Two people are either partners or not partners. Each person has either one partner or no partner. There is a point at which two people become partners or cease to be partners.
Polyamory is the relationship version of fuzzy (vague) logic. Every pair of people are partners to some degree. Most people are 0% partners. Primaries are 100% partners. But some people may be kinda partners, somewhat partners, or mostly partners, perhaps to degree 25%, 50%, and 75%. The degree of partnership may change over time, moving between fuzzy levels.
