Is it normal to think that polygamists and polyandrists are horrible people?

Don't give me that whole "People are entilted to love whomever they want/how many they want." No. That's not it's supposed to work. There's a reason why people discourage polygamy/polyandry: because the purpose is to find a SOULMATE (may you be straight, gay, bi, transsexual, asexual, pansexual, or transgender). Singular. Not plural as is a harem. Sure, you can love whoever you want but you can't love multiple people. I think that makes you a dirty cheater that doesn't deserve anyone.

What's the point of having a relationship if you're just going to have multiple "soulmates"? I think this vile practice should be downright outlawed and anyone who partakes in it throw in jail as well as having their "marriage" torn apart.

No, I'm not religious. I'm just angry that people would EVER find this okay. It's not.

    'but you can't love multiple people' Then you are saying a parent cannot love all their children, only one?

      No. Only from a romantic prospective can you love a single person. Kids don't fall under that category.

    "That's not how it is supposed to work"

    Says who? Does monogamy really work better?

    I don't hate them. It's none of my business what they do. It's not my place to cast judgment.

    Why are you angry about how other people live their lives? You're just miserable, that's it.

    "I'm just angry that people would EVER find this okay. It's not. "

    And you decide what is okay and what is not? Hint: You don't.

    There is nothing wrong if that is what they want to do.
    There is no such thing as a soul mate. The closest thing is we find our own soul mate which we choose. Concepts such as destiny are completely delusional.
    Everybody experiences emotion differently from each other.
    Personally I have never been able to distinguish between different types of love. I am able to care about people, but I don't seem to be able to romantically love as in the traditional description.
    I considered having a poly type situation in the past, but I don't think that would suit what I want either.
    It seems I am aromantic. I have had girlfriends in the past, which I would describe no different than friends who i had sex with. They described me in the same way.
    I am completely confused what the difference is. I have come to the conclusion that there are many emotions that just don't process in my brain.
    In my opinion and perception, humans seem completely delusional and unstable, basing their lives around emotions, which I perceive as intangible thoughts.
    Feelings do not actually exist. Most people just imagine them somehow.
    I'm not a horrible person. I dont hurt anybody and I actually help people a lot. I am just unable to understand what emotinal connection really is. I have emotions, but I could catagorize them on a spectrum from positive to negative. Most people overthink them too much.

    Men produce millions upon millions of sperm in their lifetime. Meant to spread millions upon millions of places (unlike a women. with only 2 ovaries). It would be a shame to waste it.

    Who the fuck are you to decide how others live their lives. They aren't hurting anyone

    It's normal because most societies tend to accept monogamy. Even the ones who accept the poly relationships have rare occurances, because the people have to be rich to afford that many partners/spouses. At least it's that way with the Hmong people. Hmong in the old days grew a lot of opium for silver bars, and it was more profitable than any other cash crop, so the opium growers tended to have more than one wife.
    However, it doesn't really mean it's right to think so, just because it's normal.
    Stay strong.
