Yes, my friend is actually a polyamorist. I actually wanted to do that. But, as it turned out, my husband decided he wanted it to be exclusive. Separate relationships.

Thunderbird M A R K E T Devin Hinshaw , 23, in a relationship What is the best part about being in a relationship? You can do things together. What is the worst part?

I don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day because I don’t celebrate any consumer holiday and most American holidays are consumer holidays. Every day should be love day. Have you ever cheated on someone or been cheated on? Yes. I don’t want to go further. Have you ever walked in on someone having sex or been walked in on? Oh yeah, that’s a funny story. Well, I’ve defi nitely walked in on a group session. My roommates, all of them, high on drugs rolling around naked on the fl oor. How did it start?

Then you got the guy down at the bus station with the pink tutu ... OK, what is the best part about being single? Freedom. I’m an alcoholic, I drink heavily — I’ve been drinking 35 years. A woman always seems to want you to give up something. If you love somebody enough you’ll put up with it. I drink a fi fth of vodka a day, but that’s just me! What’s the worst part? Being lonely and missing the sex. ‘Round here you can fi nd someone and pay them. What’s one of your most memorable Valentine’s Days? That’s a hard question because I don’t know. To me, it’s just another day. I haven’t had a Valentine’s Day with a woman for years. Have you ever cheated on someone or been cheated on? Not really cheated. No, no — every one of my relationships has been honest enough to say, “All right, I’m tired of you,” or “I’m interested in someone else.” But to sneak around? No, I haven’t. I sleep at a campsite and have a storage … It’s really hard to have a relationship when you don’t have stability. Have you ever walked in on someone having sex or been walked in on? Yeah, yeah. College. That’s a good one. Walk in, walk out and “Excuse me, bye.” Do you know what polyamory is? Nope. Can you guess? Like polygamy or something? I don’t know.
