Gonna need to be a full on poly commune at this rate if prices keep going up.

    Are you saying you want three boyfriends but for them to not be allowed to date anyone besides you? Because that’s called a harem and I don’t know anyone…male, female, or otherwise…who would be interested in something so inequitable.

    If you’d not have a problem with your three boyfriends having other partners, then that is literally being polyamorous.

      It the boyfriends didn’t know about the arrangement it would just be cheating.

        Agreed, but what I wrote wasn’t intended to imply that at all. I posited two scenarios, both of which would require full knowledge and consent of all parties: OP has three boyfriends who know about one another but are not permitted to have other partners of their own (harem), and one in which they know about each other and are free to date other people (polyamory).
