But a deep dive into over 30 studies and 24,000+ people tells a different story: satisfaction levels match those in monogamous setups. The shape of your relationship doesn’t decide your happiness. Maybe your partner just brought up the idea, and you’re feeling that knot in your stomach. It’s a common reaction—but the data suggest…
