My definition of this is more than two people in a serious relationship with at least one other person. For example, a total of 5 adults all dating each other, but in a closed poly relationship, not emotionally/romantically/sexually dating anyone else outside of those 5 people.
Is this non-ethical?
Ethical group relationships are absolutely possible and common without unicorn hunting.
Unicorn hunting: You and your boyfriend date together. If someone falls in love with just one of you, you both dump new person. Preserving the idea of a triad is always more important than the new person. Preserving the original couple is always more important than the new person and always be. They are always second class. And they are forbidden from finding another partner who will prioritize them they way you and your boyfriend prioritize each other in order to maintain their life long second class status.
Triad: You date someone. They become friends with your boyfriend and decide to date him too. If it doesn't work out with him, they can go back to being friends with him and just date you.
Re-read the excellent responses to your other post.
If my girlfriend and my mom don't get along, and my mom is really important to me, is it ethical to dump my girlfriend?

Trying to discuss ethical unicorn hunting on this sub is like repeatedly sticking a fork in an electrical socket. Surely this time it'll be fine!
