Monogamy
Aries Views on Sexual Monogamy and Emotional Connection
Aries tend to prioritize emotional honesty and passion in relationships. While they value commitment, they often see sex as a way to deepen connection and rejuvenate intimacy. Emotional strength and honesty are usually more important to Aries than strict monogamy, especially if both partners communicate openly about past mistakes.
For me, monogamy is hard. But that's because I get bored and annoyed easily. It's all "mental". If you cant keep my mind focused on you, let alone, INTERESTED, monogamy is out the window. I think that's why a lot of us cheat. Even if the sex is good, as an aries, I need someone who excites me to keep me to stay with them. I think that's why I looooove cancers!!! They're so all over the place and it's intimidating, which I love that type of rush!
I want several connections, but hidden, I don't expect the others to know, it can only hurt them, and I'm me, I can do what I want. Aquarius Venus.
Polygamous all the way. And my partners can be too obviously.
I feel like the connection may be great with someone but if we're not physical enough it led to infidelity in the past. By doing so I don't feel as though my emotions or connection are any less for who I was with. I think Aries need a lot of attention as well, I definitely agree with the mental aspect of what you're saying.

What are aries opinion on sexual monogamy in a relationship? How much importance do you place on this?
Is it merely a physical act? Something in which to rejuvenate yourself? Do you place more emphasis on how strong the emotional connection you have with the other person is versus if both individuals have messed up occasionally in the past? Random topic I'm pondering lol
I have found if you have to think about monogamy you are not ready to be in a relationship that requires it
When I was 18 I used to disagree with the notion of being "tied" and "devoted" to someone for your whole life, so thought I would never marry. Ten years later, I am married now, though I still disagree with the notion of having to be tied up! My now husband knows this, and he is aware that I may slip every now and then, and is ok with it as long as I come back to him. Obviously he wouldn't like to know what I'm up to when am on my girls night, and I wouldn't like to tell all of it, sometimes I do, when I know he can handle it but I think some things are better kept to oneself. So no, the fact that I want to try someone else and be daring once in a while doesn't mean I cannot have a stable emotional relationship. I actually stay away from the guys who could potentially make my heart flutter and just stick to those who can give me a good time, but don't have anything to offer emotionally/intellectually. So yes, I suppose I keep faithful in that department. But not faithful by traditional "all or nothing" "black and white"ways.

If I don't respect someone enough to not cheat, they're not for me.
Sounds like you can potentially cheat in partners then (because you are not that really in love with them),which in principle, wouldn't make you non monogamous? Just saying.
I would say I'm a loyal person, plus I have a Venus in Taurus, so....Monogamy is very important to me, but to each their own.

You can't change the definition of monogamy to suit you.I agree perhaps if you need a conventional classification I am in a 'open relationship'. But, on the other hand concepts can and are definitely adapted to different circumstances, else we would not even have a language. Someone came up with the word monogamy and gave them the meaning that suited them in the first place, even monogamy itself is a social creation - you had the romans with the bacanals, the tribes before Moses doing pagan acts, etc. Same goes with cheating, for some, even thinking of/looking other people is cheating, so if you have done so in their eyes you are not monogamous.

If I don't respect someone enough to not cheat, they're not for me.The explanation of the serial killer didn't exactly work for me, like saying the child of a gay couple could become gay. But I agree, people can stick to the values they wish, and love does not last forever.

I'm very loyal and always have been a faithful Aries woman in a relationship. Even though i get bored easily i would always find a way to work it out or it's done! However the last few years due to a very painful break up I've not wanted to commit. So have not allowed myself to fall into anything exclusive by accident or otherwise. I'm honest with any man that pursues me. Until someone man enough to handle me comes along I'm going to stay in the field and play lol
