According to Coindesk, “All 10 are, or used to be, paired up in romantic relationships with each other.”“When I…started my first foray into poly, I thought of it as a radical break from my [traditional] past.

These relationship networks are known as “polycules” or “constellations,” and they can be complex and interconnected. The word polycule is a blending of “polyamory” and “molecule,” reflecting relationship configurations that often resemble the chemical structure of molecules.
