Same as a Master with one sub, or a Master with three subs does it..... By making sure everyone including himself is getting what they need out of the relationship. For anything more specific, you probably want to phrase your question a bit less in general terms.

we are responsible for our own happiness.  However, everyone in the relationship can contribute to the happiness of others in the relationship.  Individuals in any relationship will find happiness within the relationship when their core selves are accepted and nutured in a given relationship.  A person will also find happiness when one's desires and needs are met within the context of the relationship.  Sounds easy... but it's not.

I agree with the above statements. It depends on the master, as well as the slaves not one poly house is the same nor the circumstances. In a true M/S situation the dynamics must coexist other wise it allows for mistrust and jealiousy and so forth. Trust, communication, honesty, trust worthyness all play a significant part.

I asked that once of a young man who had 3 slaves. His response to me was 'I use the same attitude that I would with my children. I love them all in their own unique special way, and yet, they are all treated differently."
 
Made sense to me at the time; and obviously was working for both him and his slaves

I've only known this in r/l with some friends and it didn't work.  That said, there are several here that it works fine.  Ask them.

The same as a Dominant couple (Master and Mistress) and one or two slaves (or subs)... Good communications, a poly home, good disclipliune and no psych game playing....

Vague one-line questions are difficult if not impossible to reply to properly, so I did a little look around & this is what I have come up with. (& what I will base a reply on)

Another question in Ask a submissive:
quote:

  My Master has always wanted to bring another sub into our relationship,however she is so vanilla and is feeling insecure as well as i .My Question is how do we all begain to share time /each other with out feeling left out? Neither one of us live together? Any advice?

From your own profile:
quote:

  11/15/2005 11:11:31 PM: Sexy Scorpio girl wanting DOM to please me as I will serve you.
Looking for a master that is expirenced in pleasing his slave and enjoying her subspace experience.


If you were single/looking in mid-November, are insecure with your current relationship & now faced with a poly arrangement with a man that you don't live with who is bringing in yet another insecure woman who is what you deem as vanilla...

I see a train wreck waiting to happen.
Sorry to be so negative but I really don't have any advice any of you will heed... I sense complete disaster.

The best advice would have been for all of you, before you even got involved was to take time getting to know each other (really get to know each other) before attempting a relationship. You need to build a solid foundation. Establish what you each expect from one another. Decide whether you are open to certain things such as poly families before you find yourself in one. Poly families are far more than simple math (1+1+1=3) or one round peg fits two round wholes (or would that be a total of six?   )

It is far more complicated than that. Yet all rather simple when everyone is on the same page in advance. I feel pretty confident that this is not the case since you are asking such vague questions here on the boards. I don't believe you have put forth very much thought or consideration into to what is happening. BUT... asking now means that you are starting to engage your brain... this is a good thing.

One last bit of advice... 1) about your profile. What I posted was all you had wrote. I'm guessing you don't use the site that often or that this relationship you are in is extremely recent. Most girls jump at the chance to post they are taken, yet yours says you are still looking. 2) Your profile reads just like the many male sub profiles that the dominant women can't stand. That self-serving, do-me bit doesn't go over very well with the ladies & from what I hear from the gentlemen, they really don't care for it either.

In addition to what Knight said- most of the time they don't.  Most doms who claim to WANT more than one sub are completely unable to form a solid relationship and keep it going and end up a disaster.

I have known a few who try do to this.
The most important part is the mindset of the two submissives.
Jealousy in any form will end it in a really bad way.
That is more important then any trait or charactor issue or even time management that the "domanant" dictates or provides.

Well well well , this might be a long one .Myself  I see it as a question of Dynamics , Its it tribal ? , Poly? Open? polyamourous? because it really depends on the dynamics of the relationship to describe how others are kept happy. Allow me to explain.

Tribal :My current situation , Sort of like hillary clintons " it takes a villiage to raise a child" people come together for protection , community , a safe place to learn and grow in themselves .  we join together to form what I call a pack mentality .  this is not a " boy friend/girlfriend Dynamic it is a question of family and community , it involves people who band together for the good of the pack and vicariously themselves . This can involve people who play together or not , even sexual congress, It can involve someone looking for a Safe place to find their opposite number , It can involve Nothing more than someone who needs " life coaching" frokm a circle of friends who will give them differing opinions , this way they can choose their own path with assistance.  But each member of the pack knows their place and it is understood,  as it is in my interactions that the Alpha Dynamic , I am my mate will not change . Each memebr of the pack recieves as they give so in this way its almost like Communism LOL except you dont give me your paycheck.

the Idea is for people to assist people because they can , not because they will get anything for it , To help each other , Assist each other in finding what they need, desire , want. But like other posters here I want to stress the need for HONESTY , Communication , Honor , truth < very different from honesty> and above all an openess to other peoples feelings and lives.

POLY: You know this is veiwed differently By everyone who uses it , to some ot means sex , to others love , In Leather it Means family , its not so much about the sex which in all honesty seems to be the focus in Het poly , and I dont even want to get into polygamy and mormons LOL I guess what I am saying is Poly relationships get a bad wrap because the wrong people use them for sex . Like tribalism the Idea that Poly involved you loving everyone equally and NOT for sex LOL is the best heart of this Ideal ..  yes, people do put asside jealousy and backbiting nd make a sexual poly relationship work , But its WORK!! how do I know because I have tried and failed , a few times to control that situation , I made sucsess also but its not those we remember is it .

I guess what I am saying is when someone says " poly" anything ASK what they mean because I am sure its not what you mean. Same rules apply , My rules , for me , You make up your own thank you very much. But I guess what I am trying to say that its harder to make a unstructured Love triangle work , than it is to make a structured " tribe" or Pack work . I myself use a leather structure , My First Girl , And mate is the other half of the Alpha Pair , SUbmissive to me , LOL when she chooses , But a higher rank then the pack . In the event Both of us are out of office < Like the president> control of the pack goes to either the second girl or the majordomo, each taking control where they have the most experience and so on. Everyone Knows their place .

Polyamourous , Didnt you Just talk about that? Well , briefly yes , But this is a bit different , Because its about Love and sex and the girls being equal , You know the love that leads to polygamy and the milleniums new " Love that cannot speak its name".

Look Lets be honest here , How many couples , Polyamourous couples < Like more than two that involve say two Guys and two girls ? Its a het Dominant thing to have more than One woman , But let those Subs say ....mention it might be nice to get a Sub male to toss into the Mix, And Suddenly like a loin errr lion Guarding his pride the het male pounces !!! Ok not that bad ::smile::: I guess what I am saying is that Polyamoury is More than One man two women . I have seen One woman and two or more men , I myself am One man with a few of each gender availible to me . Yes I am Bi , the last phariah in BDSM LOL.

Open : wow what can I say about Open relationships , they dont work because its very hard for people to be ... Open ... Sure swinging works , Sure open works for some , I dont want to generalize here but why not just call it room mates? Because otherwise where is the commitment ? whats the point of being with people if you dont experience life through their eyes , with them . Most " open relationships' Are short lived at best , shallow at worst , ok enough dissing.

yes I swing and am Involved in the swingers community , I do not minimize the validity of their choice , I can just see how " Most" of it can be better . Wow has this turned into a rant . think I will end here and wonder if i even answered the question . If you,ve read this far continue this discussion , I think thats whats Lacking here , we all just answer questions and do not debate the answers , ahnd debate is the best way for us all to find and answer , remember folks I like you am here to learn , we stop learning we die.

Where ISN'T the commitment?

Hmm I'll have to tell my partners that...granted we're still pretty new, just under 2 years, but three of us are moving in together in a few weeks. 

Why can't we experience life together as committed partners just because we're also open to others?

Oh and an open relationship is COMPLETELY different from swinging (although a person certainly can do both).

by keeping it fair. equal treatment is key in any polyamorous relatonship. poly relationships have been around since the dawn of time and they are quite successful. I only have one slave though, because at this point in my life thats all i have time and money for.

Very wise.

The money issue is easily solved if all parties work and contribute, but I hear what you are saying about "time". I think this is one of the big issues people don't think about when engaging in open or poly situations. If you don't have time for one relationship then two or more will not be easier.

I know that many dominants think that the slaves will "take care of each other" but, realistically, if they wanted a slave/slave or vanilla relationship they wouldn't have sought out a dominant. People need to be realistic.

hmmm... How many people (everyone?) need to be kept happy with these 2 alleged subs?

Many consider happiness of the Master paramount, the Master's needs prioritized above the sub/slave's needs. In this light feelings of jealousy would hinder the sub/slave and in fact would be self-defeating, if even allowed by the Master.   

Jealousy is an emotional state based on insecurities or greed. Jealousy is manifested within one person usually, and is not an unfulfilled need of a sub/slave.

If jealousy is an issue with you, then perhaps you should re-discuss the nature of your relationship with your Master/Dom and/or find another relationship in which you won't have to carry any emotional axes?
If the shoe fits, wear it with pride... if it doesn't fit, then why even try to get your foot in it?

You know i've tried that and it just never seems to work.  The whole "Stop jealousy!" idea never takes hold.  And those who try and use that as a brute force method always end up failing.

It CAN be.  And it also doesn't mean it's something you can just order away.

Why the assumption of brute force, as opposed to a simple reality of a Master's wishes? That was the original point, a sub/slave agreeing to a nonexclusive relationship is self-defeating their role if they allow themself, or the Master allows them to display jealousy. Unless displays of jealousy are the Masters kink, I don't understand it fitting into the role of pleasing Master.

I'm eagerly awaiting a further explanation of how jealousy CAN be an unfulfilled need of a sub/slave... how extreme do you have to get to explain that?

Bottom line is that jealousy has no place in nonexclusive relationships, and introducing it regardless of dynamic role is self-defeating. If you don't like the rules of this game, there's another game or two going on down the street...

Well I'm afraid that reality doesn't go with what the master wishes.  I don't care how awesome a master is in a relationship, if a loved one dies and their slave is mourning their death, no authority in the world can simply say "Stop mourning!" and reasonably expect that to be the healthy end of it.

Because if you repress honest emotions then in the LONG TERM, things break down, become completely infected with pain and it never works.

Now, by "display jealousy" I mean "Master, this really makes me feel jealous" sitting down together and working it out.  NOT passive-aggressive whiny petulant behavior.

In my last relationship, the owner formed a solid expectation of a few phone calls a week.  After a few months, he barely called once a week and still talked to one of his other subs every day.  I was needing to communicate with him and not getting it, and knowing that he HAD the time and energy for it with someoen else made me jealous.

I still accepted it, I didn't say he was bad or wrong for it, but I did get jealous because of it.

No, ignoring it or acting like you can just will it away is self-defeating.

Understanding it, communicating it in a mature and healthy way, and working through it is what builds strong relationships.

I've never seen the game end positively with your rules.
